Now a source has told The Mirror that their was no snub, and it was simply bad timing that meant there was no reunion at the church at Woburn Abbey in Bedfordshire.
According to a family friend:
“There hasn’t been a big fall out. They have all been texting each other. Geri left the invitations quite late so they didn’t leak and unfortunately some of the girls couldn’t make it.”
They added that Geri had a fantastic day, and was touched by the messages and well wishes the girls sent on in their absence.
Geri’s old bandmate Emma Bunton was among the guests at the wedding, while Emma’s sons Beau and Tate reportedly walked Geri down the aisle with daughter Bluebell.
