Geri Halliwell is relying on her old Spice Girls bandmates following the texting scandal involving her husband, F1 chief Christian Horner.

The Red Bull Racing CEO has been under investigation for alleged workplace misbehavior since a female colleague filed an official complaint last year.

However, Horner became embroiled in the dispute after the Dutch publication De Telegraaf accused him of sending explicit messages to the employee.

As the chief fights the claims in court, the Wannabe singer has enlisted the help of Mel B, Mel C, Emma Bunton, and Victoria Beckham.

“They are quietly supporting her behind the scenes and checking in to make sure she is OK,” according to a person familiar with the matter.

“Geri has been left ­broken by the ordeal, but is grateful for the kindness being shown to her by friends.”

Horner was recently questioned for eight hours and has stated that he is willing to go to any length to prove his innocence.

However, he hopes the probe will be completed by next week, when he is scheduled to fly to Bahrain with the squad for pre-season training.
