Geri Halliwell’s show of support alongside husband Christian Horner at the British Grand Prix is the latest sign that the sexting scandal is now well behind her.
The Spice Girl, 51, and her Red Bull racing boss husband, 50, looked like the perfect family as they posed for pictures with their children at the event.
Geri was dressed in a casual white cricket jumper, while Christian sported his overalls as they laughed and smiled as they cheered on the team as they practised pit stops ahead of the big race.
The show of solidarity comes just four months after Christian was at the centre of a media storm over a relationship he had with an employee.
Christian was accused of sending intimate text messages to a female employee, however has since been cleared of any wrongdoing following an internal investigation at Red Bull into “coercive behaviour” towards his colleague.

The Spice Girl, 51, and her Red Bull racing boss husband, 50, looked like the perfect family as they posed for pictures with their children at the event.
Their recent joint appearance suggested the couple are taking steps to put the furore behind them, despite fears their marriage was in crisis.
At the time, sources claimed Geri was “mortified and angry” at allegations made about her husband, whom she married in 2015, by a former colleague.
Last month, Geri reverted to her maiden name in a glamorous video for Dior, and fans speculated the couple were on the verge of splitting up.
Geri appeared in Instagram images as cameras followed her ahead of the French luxury brand’s fashion show at Drummond Castle in June.
Dressed in her signature all-white uniform, she began the clip by saying: “C’est moi Geri, Geri Halliwell,” which translates to “It’s me, Geri, Geri Halliwell.”
The singer attended the event in early June, where she curiously used her maiden name, however weeks later she attended the Austrian Grand Prix with Christian.
Their first public appearance since the allegations came at the Bahrain Grand Prix in March, where they held hands and showed a united front as they arrived at the paddock.
People close to Geri said she was “relieved and elated” after Christian was cleared of inappropriate conduct yesterday following a three-week investigation.
Geri is mum to daughter Bluebell (left), 18, from her relationship with Sacha Gervasi, while Christian is dad to daughter Olivia (second from left) from his marriage to ex-wife Beverley Allen (also pictured is Geri with son Monty).

Geri, who shares a seven-year-old son, Monty, with Christian, stood by him firmly throughout the allegations, which he has always denied.
Geri is mum to 18-year-old Bluebell from her relationship with Sacha Gervasi, while Christian is dad to 11-year-old Olivia from his marriage to ex-wife Beverley Allen.
A source said the investigation had been “a living hell for Christian and his family” and that he had always called the allegations “crazy”.
They said Sun:A thorough investigation has been conducted and the accusations have proven to be absurd.
‘Geri has been a staunch supporter of Christian, and his entire family is relieved and happy that this is over.
“Those feelings are there, but no one close to Christian feels like celebrating too much after everything he’s been through.”
The attention focused on Horner is said to have affected the couple’s family life, which they split between their farm (and stables) in Oxfordshire and a home in London.
The investigation came after inappropriate text messages from her husband, the Formula One boss she married in 2015, emerged in February.
The woman, in her 40s, went to the Formula 1 team’s HR department after receiving Christian’s messages, often late at night.
She accused him of “coercive behaviour” but an internal investigation chaired by an unknown KC appointed by Red Bull cleared him.
The accuser was suspended following the “results of the investigation”, sparking fury from campaign groups who claim “women simply have no confidence that their complaints will be properly investigated”.
Geri recently spoke about the importance of finding “courage” amid her family’s ongoing scandal and said that themes “within” her, including finding “power” in difficult situations and seeking support, are explored in her new children’s book.

She said: ‘There are themes within me that are in the book and they are about finding your power in any situation.
“If you’re being bullied, and it doesn’t matter how old you are, if you’re feeling alone or grieving a loss, it’s about finding courage.”
Christian’s future in F1 remains under scrutiny after text messages between him and what appears to be a female colleague were leaked in 79 screenshots, while an anonymous sender sent an email that also included copies to FIA chief Mohammed Ben Sulayem and F1 boss Stefano Domenicali.
MailOnline has previously revealed how the woman at the centre of the texting scandal told friends she “feels let down” by the Austria-based FI team she worked with.
Officials suspended her for “dishonesty” just after announcing that Christian had been exonerated, but she has now appealed, although no timeline has been set for her case.
Red Bull took action against her after suggestive WhatsApp messages were sent from anonymous email addresses to 149 people, including F1 officials and motor racing correspondents.
MailOnline has previously revealed how the woman at the centre of the texting scandal told friends she “feels let down” by the Austria-based FI team she worked with (Christian and Geri pictured in March).
The woman insists she was not the source and is “disappointed” by the treatment she has received at the company where she has worked for the past five years.
A friend said: ‘Questions need to be asked about the Red Bull investigation – transparency would build trust in what is happening to him.
“She just can’t get over the fact that she filed a complaint and was suspended; all she wants is transparency in the process.”
The woman’s plea echoes that of Red Bull Racing’s current engine partner Honda, which also called for “clarity” over the investigation that ultimately cleared Horner.
