- Geri Halliwell seen in the White House Rose Garden on Wednesday
- The former Spice Girl was in Washington with the Barbara Bush Foundation
Geri Halliwell made a surprise appearance at the White House just months after her husband Christian Horner’s sexting scandal.

Halliwell, 51, was in Washington DC for a family literacy event with the Barbara Bush Foundation, where she was promoting her book.
She was photographed mingling with other guests in the iconic Rose Garden after being given a private tour of the White House.
Halliwell wore a chic cream long-sleeve dress with nude heels for the occasion.

Her trademark red locks were pulled back into a sleek half-up hairstyle and she completed her look with a pair of pearl earrings.
Her appearance comes after her F1 executive husband Horner, 50, was embroiled in a sexting scandal.
WhatsApp messages he sent to a colleague were leaked after he was accused of misconduct.
The salacious texts included asking the employee what she was wearing and exchanging photos.
At the time, sources told the Mail that she had left the UK before the escape and “collapsed” when she arrived.
Horner was cleared by an internal investigation following allegations of “incredibly controlling” behavior on February 28.
But his job as Red Bull boss, as well as his marriage, were thrown into turmoil when the texts were made public a day later.
However, Halliwell announced her intention to stand by her husband, with the two putting forward a united front.

Horner’s accuser was subsequently suspended by Red Bull. Mail Sport was told the decision to suspend her was a direct result of the investigation’s findings, as her testimony was “dishonest”.
The complainant has since appealed the outcome of the investigation.
Horner was allowed to continue in office after being cleared of the coercive control allegation.
Afterward, he admitted the saga had been “very trying” for his family while praising his “extremely supportive” wife.
Halliwell, literacy ambassador for the Barbara Bush Foundation, visited the White House following an event where she discussed her book “Rosie Frost & the Falcon Queen” with young readers.
She was also photographed with Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, who helped orchestrate the event.
The popstar was last seen publicly at her former bandmate and friend Victoria Beckham’s lavish 50th birthday celebration in London.
She reunited with the other members of the girl group to perform the iconic choreography from their 1997 hit “Stop.”

Horner was away on occasion due to work commitments and his wife appeared carefree as she danced the night away.
However, it appears the shadow cast by the allegations still hangs over Halliwell.
She reportedly vetoed a proposed Netflix documentary to mark 30 years since the birth of the Spice Girls, due to concerns about negative press.
