Following their wedding in May last year, it looks like Christian and Geri Horner are just as loved-up as ever. The Spice Girl took to Instagram this week to reveal her husband of 15-months had gifted her with possibly the most thoughtful gift ever.
We're used to seeing celebrity spouses buying each other expensive cars – but Formula One team boss Christian, 42, didn't just get 44-year-old Geri the one with a huge price tag. Instead the vintage red sports car has a very special place in his wife's heart.

Sharing a snap of her posing next to her new toy, Geri wrote: "I've been reunited with my old friend – MGB Roadster – I originally bought her with first Spice Girl pay check."
Geri's followers were quick to praise Christian for his gesture, with one writing: "What a beautiful thing to do for you." Another added: "This is the best thing I've seen all day."
She previously opened up about her first buy as a fully-fledged pop star, telling Cosmopolitan: "When we first saw our advance check before the album dropped, we jumped around like mad. My first wow-we-did-it purchase: a 1965 MGB Roadster for £15,000."

Unsurprisingly Geri was over-the-moon at being reunited with the car, and later shared a seriously cute photo of her and Christian cuddling against the bonnet. The mum-of-one simply captioned it: "Thank you."
It's not the first time Christian has treated Geri to a new set of wheels. As a wedding present he gifted her with a £350,000 DB5 retro-style Aston Martin. Although the pricey motor doesn't have the same nostalgia as Geri's Roadster, it's reported Christian bought it after she briefly mentioned it was one of her favourite models – after seeing it in James Bond film Goldfinger.
