CHICKEN POX PUTS SPICE TOUR IN DOUBT

The SPICE GIRLS reunion tour is under threat after GERI HALLIWELL's daughter BLUEBELL fell ill with chicken pox - risking the health of the band.

SPICE GIRLS

Halliwell was so concerned about the virus spreading to the rest of the band - and their children - that she has had the 18-month-old flown back to the U.K. to be looked after by her family.

Although chicken pox is a disease which mainly affects children, the virus can lead to an outbreak of shingles in adults - a debilitating condition which could leave the singers too ill to perform.

A source tells British newspaper The Sun, "Chicken pox is very contagious and when Geri noticed the spots on Bluebell she panicked and warned the rest of the girls.

"And it's not only them who are at risk. Bluebell has played a lot with Victoria's sons Cruz and Romeo lately. Mel B's baby Angel could get the bug too, and is only eight months old so could be really hit for six (could really suffer)."
