It's time to Spice up your life once again because three of the Spice Girls are back in the studio together, working on new music.

Geri Horner (Ginger Spice), Melanie Brown (Scary Spice) and Emma Bunton (Baby Spice) have spent the past 48 hours in London's Play Deep studios recording previously unheard material, with a view to releasing a new album later this year, celebrating 20 years since the release of the band's debut single Wannabe.

It is understood that the band will also play a series of live dates on both sides of the Atlantic in 2017.

Mel B yesterday posted a picture on Instagram of the trio, alongside the caption "And I say oohhhh LALA", seemingly confirming the news that the band are back.
