Spice Girl Geri Halliwell-Horner Strikes Double Tartan Twinning via Edinburgh Castle
At first glance, these shots might lead one to assume they were captured on the same day. However, six years separated the snaps. The 52-year-old singer, best known as Ginger Spice during her days with The Spice Girls, did a redo of an iconic photo at Edinburgh Castle.
Posing for a photo before a book signing event in the bustling city, she was decked out in a kilt much like her 2019 visit, standing beside a bagpiper. The striking similarity between the two images didn't go unnoticed, with the more recent shot showcasing Geri wearing a tweed skirt in earthy hues combined with a crisp white, collared top.
Her visit to Scotland was not limited to just Edinburgh — she also made a stopover at St Andrews, Fife, to promote her latest book, Rosie Frost: Ice on Fire. Fans were left thrilled as the book tour reached its final leg in this enchanting city.
Ahead of her trip to Scotland, Geri shared a heartwarming social media post expressing her anticipation for meeting her fans in Edinburgh and St Andrews.
In a video displaying the piper, Geri playfully leaned on his shoulder, sharing a giggle. She acknowledged Scotland as her favorite place, praising the book for embodying notions of courage, power, and freedom. The piper then eagerly chimed in, adding that he hailed from Glasgow but was frequently mistaken for an Englishman.
At the book signing, Geri affectionately referred to the piper as 'James 1st,' a cheeky nod to King James, the son of Mary, Queen of Scots. Full of warm gratitude, she expressed her appreciation for the heartfelt welcome she's always received in Scotland as the reception fireworked her energy.
Geri's 2019 Edinburgh Castle pic mirrored her more recent visit, sporting a similar outfit and sharing the same enthusiasm in engaging with the bagpiper.
The second installment of the Rosie Frost trilogy—which debuted as a bestseller in 2023—continues the unbridled adventure of the title character. This time, she finds herself uncovering the truth behind her mother's murder. A splash of romance underscores the action-packed narrative, promising an exciting read for all audiences.
