Geri Horner has reverted to her maiden name in a new video.

Speaking in a video shared to social media for French fashion house Dior, the Spice Up Your Life singer introduces herself saying: "Bonjour! C'est moi Geri, Geri Halliwell," which translates to, "Hello! It's me Geri, Geri Halliwell."

The clip saw the mother-of-two learn more about Dior's history with Scotland ahead of the brand's runway show at Drummond Castle in Crieff on June 3.

Geri took the last name of her husband, Formula One team boss Christian Horner, upon marrying him in 2015, and has recently been referring to herself as “Halliwell-Horner”, including on her own social media.

The apparent name change comes after Red Bull boss Horner was accused of inappropriate behaviour by a female team employee earlier this year.

He strongly denied any wrongdoing and was cleared of misconduct following an investigation.

Geri and Christian have gone to great lengths to put on a united front with the latter thanking his “supportive wife” at a press conference in March.

"I'm very thankful I have a beautiful family and a very supportive wife. I'm the only one who has been named in this," Horner said, reports CBS Sports. "So of course, it's very trying. When there's children involved, family, parents... it's not pretty,” he told members of the media.

Calling for a line to be drawn under the incident, he added: "The intrusion on my family is now enough. We need to move forward. Obviously, there's been an awful lot of coverage surrounding this. But one has to go back to the basis that a grievance was raised, it was investigated, and it was dismissed."

The couple share seven-year-old son Montague, and both have older daughters from previous relationships.

The Standard has contacted a representative for Geri Horner for comment.
