It has been claimed that Victoria, 50, and her husband David, who turned 50 in style yesterday, fell out with the music mogul, 64, with relations said to be so dire that the Beckhams 'bought themselves out of their contracts' with his company XIX Entertainment in 2018.

A source has claimed to the "The Spice Girls working with Fuller means that there is absolutely no way that Victoria will be involved at all.

"It feels rather bizarre that they would beg Victoria for years and years to join them and now they have him on board, they don’t approach her. Maybe they thought there would be no point, as the Beckhams and Fuller no longer have a relationship, it’s over."

The source also claimed that the band "need a manager" but Simon's involvement "means there is zero chance that Victoria will be involved". They also stated that the other members of the band "know that too" so they "didn’t even bother asking her now they are back with Fuller."
