Over the years, Spice Girls star Geri Halliwell-Horner has attended multiple royal engagements where she has been pictured meeting and interacting with Queen Camilla. According to the Daily Mail‘s Richard Eden, the Queen has become “increasingly close” with the Spice Girls singer.  A source told the reporter that Geri has become like one of the Queen’s ladies-in-waiting, “but more so”, sharing that the two share a common interest in horses. While the Queen ended the long-standing royal tradition of having ‘ladies-in-waiting’ when her husband King Charles ascended the throne, she opted to have six assistants known as ‘Queen’s companions’.  As a fellow horse enthusiast, Geri recently made a trackside appearance for day one of Royal Ascot on 16 June with her husband, Christian Horner.

‘I was getting down with a guy and he decided to put on One Love. It was creepy’: Duncan James from Blue’s honest playlist

The song I inexplicably know all the lyrics toCan’t Help Falling in Love by Elvis – the song I sent off on tape as my audition to Blue. The song I do at karaokeI had my 30th birthday party in a karaoke bar above a Chinese restaurant. My mum was doing It’s Raining Men by Geri Halliwell, just as Geri herself walked in, so she grabbed her, brought her on stage, and went: “Sing. It’s your song.” I thought: “Mum. She’s just arrived. Chill out!” The first single I bought I spent a lot of time with my grandparents because my mum was a nurse. My gran said pop music hurt her ears, so I asked my friend Tracy to buy me something from Woolworths that my gran would approve of. She bought Sadeness (Part I) by Enigma, which has Gregorian chanting and a sexual bit where a woman sounds as if she’s having an orgasm. The first song I fell in love with I remember jumping on the sofa, doing twizzles in the air, going mad to …
