Christian Horner always knew about wife Geri's sexual history with Mel B, insiders have claimed.
The Formula 1 team boss 'isn’t bothered' by the revelation that the two Spice Girls once had sex, despite Mel's fears that he would 'kill her' for the confession.
The revelation was made during a one-to-one chat on Piers Morgan's Life Stories this week, and has been considered a 'Spice Girls bombshell' to everyone except Christian, apparently.
Not bothered: Christian Horner, Geri's husband (here in July 2014), is reportedly 'not bothered' by the claims
Insiders told The Sun Online on Monday that Christian 'simply isn’t bothered' and 'was always aware how close Geri and Mel were. It’s in the past.'
Christian's intel on their lewd history will come as a surprise to Mel, who feared that Geri's husband would be furious about a threat to her 'posh, country image'.
Mel told Piers: '[Geri's] going to hate me for this because she’s all posh in her country house and her husband. But it’s a fact. It just happened and we just giggled at it and that was it.
Rocking the boat: Mel B's revelation that she once had sex with fellow Spice Girl Geri has been considered a 'bombshell'
Still fearful, Mel added later on: 'I’ve said it now. All done. She’s going to kill me and so is her husband. She’s not that posh now, is she?'
Since marrying millionaire Christian four years ago, Geri's public image has transformed significantly and she finally seemed to have buried her wild Ginger Spice days.
Mel's claims ever caught fellow bandmember Mel C off-guard, as she listened from the studio audience, aghast.
'Did you sleep with Geri “like that”?' Piers probed, with a mischievous smile on his face.
Shock: Piers Morgan was the one who teased the confession out of Mel's mouth during a forthcoming episode of Life Stories

Don't get me involved! The confession even seemed to come as surprise to bandmate Mel C
With Mel visibly smiling and nodding, he asked: 'Yes? Really? This is a Spice Girls bombshell.
'You have never admitted this before have you? People are going to be fascinated.'
From the audience, Mel C said: 'I don't know anything, this is all new to me!'
Despite fearing that she'd rocked the boat with their best kept secret, the forthcoming Spice Girls tour will reportedly go ahead.
It was claimed that Mel's TV confession prompted some 'serious' grovelling to the other members, Emma Bunton, Mel and of course, Geri.
