Geri Halliwell's Ultimatum
Geri Halliwell is reportedly furious and has demanded her husband, Christian Horner, cut ties with a female colleague he is accused of sexting. The Spice Girl wants the colleague completely out of the picture.
Ground Rules Set
Geri, 51, has also set ground rules for her husband's future behavior, including monitoring the messages he sends on his phone.
Tensions Rise
Tensions escalated after it was revealed that the woman involved in the sexting scandal has developed a close friendship with another senior figure in Horner's Red Bull team. Additionally, Max Verstappen's dad warned of potential consequences if Horner remains connected to the colleague.
Public Display of Support
Although Geri showed public support for Horner at a recent grand prix, sources reveal that she has insisted on changes in their relationship dynamics.
Leaked Messages and Fallout
Sexually suggestive messages involving Horner asking for pictures and discussing explicit acts were leaked following a Red Bull probe that cleared him of coercive behavior towards the female employee. The team faced backlash after trolls targeted the accuser, leading to the removal of a promo video featuring Horner.
United Front
Red Bull Racing maintains that there is no issue internally and is focusing on their racing efforts. A representative for Geri Halliwell was approached for comment but has not responded.
