Spice Girls put rumoured rift behind them for closing ceremony cuddles
Aug 13th 2012, 09:38

The Spice Girls put their rumoured rift well and truly behind them as they celebrated their performance at the London 2012 closing ceremony with cuddles and lots of giggles.

But despite their show of unity for the end of the Olympics extravaganza, Victoria Beckham failed to join her fellow bandmates Emma Bunton, Geri Halliwell, Melanie Brown and Melanie Chisholm celebrating after the show.

As the foursome headed on to party into the early hours of the morning – with Mel B even staying in her glitzy stage outfit for the occasion – Victoria appeared to have headed back to her hotel, perhaps to check up on her little daughter Harper.

The girls took to the stage during the closing ceremony last night to perform Wannabe and Spice Up Your Life.

Clearly on a high after their show, Geri took straight to Twitter to thank fans for their continue support, tweeting: 'That was amazing!!!! Thank you all , we love you!!xx'

Emma followed suit, tweeted: 'Thank you for all you amazing messages!!!! Had the best night!!!!', while Mel C took a moment to reflect on the history they had just made: 'What an honour to represent our country and perform for all of the incredible Olympians. We salute you one and all #coloursoftheworld x x'

And it was clear, despite the rift rumours that have plagued their friendship since their split in 2000, they are well and truly back on track.

The fivesome posed for a very cosy snap backstage at the gig, with all of them wearing a huge smile.

As Geri planted a big kiss on Victoria's head, while her eyes were firmly fixed on the camera, they looked relaxed and happy to be back in each other's company again.

Back to their old antics, they goofed around, pulling faces in other shots which were then posted to their Twitter accounts.

But while Baby, Scary, Sporty and Ginger Spice all cuddled up to Liam Gallagher backstage later on in the night, Posh appeared to have opted for an early night as she was nowhere to be seen.

The girls were then forced to party on without her and party they most certainly did as they were still in their glad-rags in the early hours of the following morning when daylight was breaking through.

Emma decided to show their fans just how early they had stayed up partying, posting a snap of them posing in a garden area in London accompanied with the caption: 'Party till the break of dawn, and Mel is still l in her outfit #spicegirlsolympics '

Mel C was noticeably absent at this point though, suggesting she hadn't managed to keep up with her bandmates and had headed home like Posh.

This is the second time the Spice Girls, who hit the music scene in 1996, have reformed this year.

Posh was noticeably absent from the after party celebrations then, too.
