Geri Halliwell has been standing by her husband Christian Horner, who is currently facing allegations of inappropriate behavior. The Red Bull chief is fighting to save his F1 career after a female employee accused him of misconduct, which he has fully denied.
The matter is still unresolved, despite an eight-hour investigation into the claims earlier this month. Horner has reiterated his innocence and is hoping for a speedy resolution as the first race of the season approaches in March. However, there is no timeline for the investigation to end, leaving Horner and his family in a state of uncertainty.
The accusations have taken a toll on Halliwell, who has been struggling to eat and sleep. According to sources, she has been left devastated and is being supported by her family and former Spice Girl bandmates. She may even miss the first race of the season in Bahrain as she cannot face the scrutiny of the media.
Despite the difficult situation, Horner remains focused on his job and has insisted that it is business as usual. He has also received support from former F1 boss Bernie Ecclestone, who denies encouraging Horner to resign. However, the rest of the F1 community is calling for a swift and transparent investigation.
The allegations against Horner concern his strict and controlling work regime, something he has denied and found shocking. He has been married to Halliwell for over a decade, and she has stood by him through it all. However, the scandal has taken a toll on her, and she has been described as looking "flattened."
At the launch of the new Red Bull car, Horner publicly addressed the allegations for the first time and stated that he fully denies any accusations. An independent lawyer has been conducting the investigation, and their findings are expected to be handed over to Red Bull before the first race of the season.
F1 and the FIA have also joined in calls for a transparent and swift resolution to the matter. Mercedes boss Toto Wolff has also spoken out, saying that the situation is now an issue for all of Formula 1 and that it is essential to uphold values of inclusion, equality, and diversity.
Despite the ongoing investigation, Horner remains focused on his role as Red Bull's Team Principal, a position he has held since 2005. The team had an incredible season last year, winning 21 out of 22 grand prix races, with Max Verstappen securing a hat-trick of world titles. However, with the uncertainty surrounding Horner's future, the team's success may be overshadowed by this scandal.
