Former Spice Girls singer Geri Horner, née Geri Halliwell, delighted fans at the weekend with an incredibly rare photo of her stepdaughter, Olivia.
In honour of Olivia's milestone tenth birthday, Geri shared a heartfelt snapshot of the mother-daughter duo beaming alongside a stack of birthday goodies.

"Happy Birthday Olivia! 10 today [party emoji] We love you so much! You're amazing!" Geri lovingly penned in her caption.

A third chimed in: "Happy Birthday Olivia," and a fourth added: "Happy birthday gorgeous girly I hope your day is as perfect as you are beautiful."
Although Geri often shares pictures of her children Bluebell, 17, and Monty, six, she's rarely pictured with Olivia. Olivia is the daughter of Geri's husband Christian and his ex-partner Beverley Allen.
The blended family split their time between their sprawling country homes in Oxfordshire and Hertfordshire. During an interview with Luxury London in 2019, Christian said: "Restoring the farm has been my hobby – the way I put racing out of my mind. The main house is finished but now the barns are being converted. We're currently putting the finishing touches to an indoor swimming pool."
Musing on Geri's bond with his daughter Olivia, Red Bull boss Christian went on to say: "I have a great relationship with Beverley and Beverley gets on with Geri, and Geri is great with Olivia and Olivia has a lovely relationship with Monty. It's totally harmonious."

On the subject of potentially expanding her brood, Geri went on to say: "There's room for another one, for sure, and if that happened that would be great. But either way is okay. We've got our hands pretty full and we're very grateful for what we have."

The duo donned their finest threads for the world premiere of Beckham - and wow did Bluebell look every inch her mother's carbon copy!
Geri, meanwhile, has been dazzling fans across the pond to promote her brand-new book titled Rosie Frost and the Falcon Queen. Her book is a passion project inspired somewhat by her former bandmates. In a recent interview with Scary Mommy magazine, the flame-haired star opened up about how the story was inspired by her own life experiences.
