You either love Victoria Beckham or you hate her, reckons former bandmate Geri Halliwell.
Geri, 37, says: "You'd get this very black or white feeling, either absolute adoration or not. She knows that - she's like Marmite."
Former Ginger Spice adds she "absolutely loves" singer-turnedfashion designer Posh, 35.
Geri, talking to Piers Morgan for his Life Stories show, which is screened at 9.25pm on ITV1 tomorrow, says: "The girl I know has got absolutely nothing to do with the one I see in the media."
She adds that she was the second most popular Spice Girl behind "Baby" Emma Bunton, 34, with "Sporty" Mel C, 36, third.
She quit the group after four years in May 1998 owing to depression, differences with the other girls and feeling stifled.
The Mirror revealed last week how Geri also talked about her struggle with bulimia and how pal Robbie Williams convinced her to book into a US clinic which "possibly saved my life".
Geri, who insists the women are great mates again, later revealed that the perfect Spice Girl would have Emma's face, Victoria's legs and 34-year-old Mel B's "amazing" bottom.
