Geri Horner shows off her growing baby bump as she prepares for her second child
The former spice girl announced she was expecting her second child earlier this week
GERI Horner has shown off her growing baby bump in a cute new Instagram snap.
The star is clearly planning to work through her pregnancy, and appeared to be hard at work in a home studio when a sneaky photographer took a picture of her beaming.
The 44-year-old announced she was expecting a baby with husband Christian on Monday, posting a cute drawing of a pregnant woman with the caption 'Mama Spice'.
She added her own line from her song It's Raining Men by writing "God Bless Mother Nature" by sharing the snap on Twitter, giving fan the heads up she was pregnant.
Later on Monday night, the star then attended the Attitude Awards to receive the Honorary Gay Award and showcased a visible bump on the red carpet.
Geri - otherwise known as Ginger Spice - teamed her pregnancy glow with a long navy gown, flashing a hint of cleavage as she posed happily with her husband.
She was also joined at the event by her Spice Girls bandmate Emma Bunton, who couldn't hide her delight at her friends happy news.
Despite the upcoming arrival, Geri is still planning on going ahead with the reunion tour with her fellow Spice Girls Emma Bunton and Mel B next year.
The trio will be performing under the name GEM in a series of shows to mark the 20th anniversary of the release of the Spice Girls first No.1, Wannabe.

A source told The Sun: “Geri and Christian are obviously delighted to be expecting.
“But this does not signal the end of the Spice Girls comeback. Far from it.
“She still intends to rehearse and potentially record new material, even when she’s heavily pregnant.”
Emma : "I've known for a while and I've had to keep it a secret, so it's wonderful that it is out in the open.
"I'm over the moon, she is going to be an amazing mum, for the second time.
"I'll be babysitting but we are all working mums so she doesn't need any advice from me. It's very exciting."
Geri delighted fans with the unexpected news on social media, which comes less than 18 months after she married Christian in May last year.
Soon after her post, an official statement was released confirming the news. It read: "Geri and Christian are absolutely delighted to announce they are expecting their first child together.
“The couple is overjoyed with the good news and cannot wait to welcome the newest addition to their family."
Geri married Red Bull Formula 1 Team Principal Christian Horner at a ceremony held in a parish church at Bedfordshire in May last year, where Geri’s daughter Bluebell Madonna, 10, was a bridesmaid.
