Red Bull boss Christian Horner has dismissed rumors that he and his wife Geri plan to star in a family documentary.
Reports on Friday suggested the couple had been approached about making a “really personal” TV series after recent “speculation about their relationship”.
The Formula One team principal has faced intense scrutiny in recent weeks following allegations made against him by a colleague. Horner has always denied the allegations.
Dismissing reports about a documentary, he told the PA news agency: “There is a lot being written about different things, but there are absolutely no plans to make a family documentary.
‘Netflix does enough and you see enough behind the scenes about it. So I have no idea where that report came from.
Red Bull boss Christian Horner has denied rumors that he and his wife Geri plan to star in a family documentary.
The Formula One team principal has faced intense scrutiny in recent weeks following allegations made against him by a colleague. Horner has always denied the allegations.
During the Bahrain Grand Prix last month, Geri, who rose to fame in 1990s girl group Spice Girls, appeared alongside her embattled husband to show her support, and the pair shared a kiss.
Red Bull Racing’s parent company, Red Bull GmbH, announced on February 5 that Horner was being investigated following an allegation of “inappropriate behavior.”
Horner emphatically denied the claim and the 50-year-old remained as team principal after Red Bull confirmed the complaint had been dismissed on February 28.
Twenty-four hours later, messages and a series of images apparently exchanged between Horner and the complainant were leaked.
The plaintiff is understood to have since appealed against the decision to clear Horner of controlling behaviour.
It has been suspended while the saga continues, sparking fury from campaign groups who claim “women simply do not have confidence that their complaints will be properly investigated”.
Throughout the furore, Geri has been steadfast in her support for her husband, making a high-profile show of support by turning up at the Bahrain and Saudi Arabia Grand Prix.
Last week, James Gay-Rees, the boss of Drive to Survive, the Netflix show documenting the dramas of the F1 season, addressed the scandal and revealed how his team plans to deal with it.

Dismissing reports about a documentary, he told the PA news agency: “There is a lot being written about different things, but there are absolutely no plans to make a family documentary.”
“It will have to be referenced somehow, yes,” he told The Telegraph. “And everyone will want it to be told in a particular way, so it’s about treading that line to keep everyone happy and keep Netflix and us happy, so we can sleep at night with the decisions we’ve made.”
‘You have to have balance. I think Horner looks good at the moment, but it doesn’t look like he’s done yet. Everything will depend on how it develops.
“I don’t know what he did, and I don’t really have an opinion on it, but he’s been through it and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone.”
Geri, 51, attended Victoria Beckham’s 50th birthday party on Saturday night when the Spice Girls reunited for the event.
Former English footballer David Beckham posted a video on Instagram of the quintet performing their song Stop.
In 2023, Victoria and David, also known as Posh and Becks, appeared in a four-part Netflix documentary exploring their life and David’s football career.
