The allegations against Christian Horner are shaking Formula 1. Will the scandal also affect the Red Bull team boss's marriage to Geri Halliwell? At the race in Bahrain, the couple at least exudes unity.
Spice Girls star Geri Halliwell showed up at the Bahrain Grand Prix with her husband Christian Horner. The two were photographed hand in hand and smiling in the paddock. The couple even shared a kiss in front of the photographers' cameras. It was eagerly awaited whether the couple would appear together in Bahrain, where the Formula 1 season opener takes place. Red Bull team boss Horner had previously been accused of behaving “inappropriately” towards an employee who reported to him.
Red Bull dismissed the complaint after an internal investigation last week. Horner has always denied the allegations. Later, there was another commotion surrounding the case; according to media reports, alleged private chat histories appeared. There are supposed to be lots of spicy pictures and suggestive messages in these.
At the joint appearance with his wife Geri Halliwell, however, there was no sign of crisis. The singer presented a classic, minimalist look in Bahrain, wearing a white strapless dress that reached her knees. She paired the outfit with nude Christian Louboutin peep-toe heels and a black handbag.
Horner told RTL: “She is my wife. We are here together to support each other. Now I'm concentrating on the race.”
Christian Horner and Geri Halliwell married in May 2015 after previously announcing their engagement in November 2014. Their son was born in January 2017. Halliwell brought a daughter into the marriage from a previous relationship.
