However, the only other Spice Girl in attendance on her big day was Emma 'Baby Spice' Bunton.
It was previously reported that Mel's second wedding in Morocco - which she described as 'more informal, sexy and beautiful' - would give the other Spice Girls the opportunity to reunite and celebrate their band mates nuptials.
Now Mel, 50, has shared the first snap from her second big day, where she stunned in a strapless sheer gown covered in red beading in a collaboration with Evelie and designer Justin Alexander .
Meanwhile Rory looked dapper in a short white tuxedo jacket, black trousers and bow tie.
The newlyweds beamed and danced in the snap in front of their Moroccan venue, and Mel caption the snap: "We got married!!! Again!
"A wedding so good we keep the celebration going with our closest and dearest in our fav place at @selmanmarrakech [three heart emojis] we had the time of our lives!!"
And it seems Mel C, who had missed the London ceremony, was in attendance as she commented: "What a weekend! So happy we got to share it with you [three heart emojis]."
Mel's sister Danielle also shared pictures on her Instagram Stories of the celebrations.
She showed off the stunning table setting - which also stuck to the red theme - before sharing a shot of the guests all seated at a long table for the wedding meal.
Her little girl was then seen dancing with a belly dancer who was part of the evening's entertainment.

Speaking about how Mel's incredible dress came together, Caroline Black, Evelie Bridal Owner, said: 'For Mel's Morocco wedding dress, we focused on trying Justin Alexander gowns with a little extra sparkle.
"Mel loved the idea of a red dress—something bold, with lots and lots of shimmer—but it also had to feel light and easy to move in.
"We drew inspiration from a variety of dresses she tried on at Evelie South Kensington, then went back and forth brainstorming with Justin Alexander and his design team.
"After several conversations and sketches, the first design took shape. Mel gave us clear feedback on what she liked and what she didn't, and the final result was beautiful.
"Mel had such a strong sense of what she wanted—it was a joy working with her and Justin Alexander to bring her vision to life.'

How Putin's ‘secret daughter' lives lavish life in exile as mum went from cleaner to millionaire after Vlad ‘affair'
There, she works at two anti-war art galleries while launching thinly veiled attacks on Mad Vlad VLADDY'S GIRL How Putin's 'secret daughter' lives lavish life in exile as mum went from cleaner to millionaire after Vlad 'affair' IN the shadow of one of the world's biggest tyrants, she lived like a princess - jet-setting in private planes, dripping in designer gear, and sipping champagne behind Gucci facemasks. Now, Vladimir Putin's rumoured secret daughter has seemingly turned her back on her gilded past — and on the man alleged to be her father. Advertisement 12 Elizaveta Krivonogikh is rumoured to be Putin's secret love child 12 Elizaveta, 22, sports a designer facemask in pictures posted to her social media Credit: Instagram 12 She is said to be Vlad's offspring with his former long-term lover Svetlana Krivonogikh (pictured) Credit: Proekt Media 12 The Kremlin has always denied that Putin has any relation to Elizaveta Credit: Getty Elizaveta Krivonogikh, 22 – also known as Luiza Rozova and now Elizaveta Rudnova - is now living in self-imploded exile in Paris. There, she works at two anti-war art galleries while launching thinly veiled attacks on Putin, blasting the "man who took millions of lives and destroyed mine". She hasn't named the Russian despot directly — but the target of her cryptic fury couldn't be clearer. She recently wrote on her private Telegram channel Art of Luiza: "It's liberating to be able to show my face to the world again. Advertisement "It reminds me of who I am and who destroyed my life." From Gucci to guilt Born in 2003 during Putin's first term in office, Elizaveta was the result — according to persistent allegations — of a clandestine affair between the then-rising Kremlin strongman and Svetlana Krivonogikh, a former cleaner turned multimillionaire. Svetlana, now in her 40s, went from scrubbing floors to owning a stake in sanctioned Rossiya Bank and a property empire worth over $100 million. She also owns a raunchy St Petersburg nightclub, Leningrad Centre, known for its erotic shows. Advertisement Elizaveta grew up drenched in luxury - private jets, exclusive nightclubs, and designer wardrobes. She would flaunt her life of privilege on Instagram while Russia grappled with poverty and pandemic chaos. But in early 2022, just before Russia launched its brutal invasion of Ukraine, she abruptly vanished from Russian social media. Putin's prized nuke sub base 'catastrophically' close to epicenter of 8.8 megaquake The Paris pivot She re-emerged in Paris under a new name - Elizaveta Rudnova - reportedly in a bid to sever ties with her past. Advertisement Ukrainian TV later claimed she was living in the French capital with a passport under the name Rudnova, allegedly ditching the patronymic Vladimirovna, which would confirm her father's name as Vladimir. Her new surname is a likely nod to the late Oleg Rudnov, one of Putin's longtime cronies. 12 Elizaveta used to show her wealth on social media - but her account was deleted when the Ukraine war began Credit: East2West 12 She posted a series of glamorous shots of her luxury lifestyle Credit: Instagram Advertisement 12 Designer fashion features heavily on Elizaveta's Instagram account Credit: Instagram 12 Luxury-lover Elizaveta's posts showcase her champagne lifestyle Credit: Instagram Graduating from the prestigious ICART School of Cultural and Art Management in 2024, she has since taken on a role at two Parisian galleries — L Galerie in Belleville and Espace Albatros in Montreuil — both known for hosting anti-war and dissident exhibitions. Her responsibilities reportedly include curating exhibitions and producing video content. Advertisement But her presence in Paris's dissident art circles has sparked fury. 'She looks like Putin' Not everyone in the expat art world is ready to forgive — or forget. Artist Nastya Rodionova, who fled Russia in 2022, publicly severed ties with the two galleries upon learning of Elizaveta's involvement. She posted on Facebook: "It is inadmissible to allow a person who comes from a family of beneficiaries of [Putin's] regime to come into confrontation with the victims of that regime. Advertisement 12 The 22-year-old is reportedly working at two art galleries in Paris Credit: Social media 12 She also allegedly ditched her tyrant dad's surname Credit: Elizaveta Krivonogikh 12 In a cryptic post, Elizaveta blasted the 'man who took millions of lives and destroyed mine' Credit: East2West "My personal answer in this case is no." Advertisement Dmitry Dolinsky, director of L Association which runs both galleries, stood by Elizaveta. He told The Times: 'She looks like Putin but so do 100,000 other people. I haven't seen a DNA test." Still, the circumstantial evidence is hard to ignore — the timing of her birth, her mother's overnight fortune, and the uncanny facial resemblance which an AI expert pegged at 70 per cent similarity to Putin. Who is Luiza Rozova? LUIZA Rozova, born Elizaveta Krivonogikh, is the 22-year-old rumoured illegitimate daughter of Vladimir Putin. She is allegedly the love child from an affair between the dictator and his former cleaner, Svetlana Krivonogikh. These claims were first made by the Kremlin-critical investigative project "Proekt" back in 2020. She often used to share details of her lavish life on Instagram, until the page was suddenly taken down around the time of Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Luiza is reported to have moved to Paris and graduated from a course at the ICART School of Cultural and Art Management in June 2024. She posts in a private Telegram channel called "Art of Luiza", where she has made allusions to her reported father. Rewriting the story Once the toast of Moscow's rich kids scene, Luiza now presents herself as a politically conscious exile. Advertisement Her posts have shifted from flaunting Miu Miu and Maison Margiela to cryptic denouncements of tyranny and war. "The man who took millions of lives and destroyed mine," she wrote, pointedly. She also lamented: "I can't make an extra lap around my beloved St. Petersburg. "I can't visit my favourite places and establishments." Advertisement An older post from 2021 saw her share an extraordinary 'make love, not war' message, in the wake of street protests which saw 5,100-plus arrests by heavily armed police. Her transformation hasn't gone unnoticed — nor has her attempt to claim space in the anti-Putin resistance, even as her background screams privilege. But some, like Rodionova, still see her as as a symbol of the very elite that profited from Putin's long reign — a hidden child from a hidden empire. 12 Svetlana Krivonogikh is a shareholder in a bank sanctioned by the West due to its close links to the Russian president Credit: Proekt Media Advertisement Vlad's 'lover' Her mother, Svetlana, has never publicly confirmed the affair, but has become a posterwoman for the sudden, unexplained enrichment of Putin's inner circle. She was sanctioned by the UK in 2023 and is said to own assets across Moscow, St Petersburg, and Sochi. When independent outlet Proekt first exposed the story, Putin's spokesman Dmitry Peskov said he'd 'never heard anything' about Krivonogikh — an evasion that only intensified speculation. Advertisement Putin, who officially recognises only two daughters from his previous marriage, has never acknowledged Luiza — nor denied her.

Pop legend wants to headline Glastonbury 2027 for 10-year anniversary of set
After a decade away, one 00s pop legend is throwing his hat into the ring for a headlining spot at Glastonbury. With two number one albums, 16 Top 10 hits, and 298 weeks spent in the UK charts, Craig David is ready to tackle that coveted Worthy Farm title. Glastonbury is having a fallow year to allow the ground to recover, so the 7 Days icon will have to wait until 2027 – perfect timing for a special anniversary. It will mark 10 years since the 44-year-old star last performed on the Pyramid Stage, a performance which he described as 'iconic'. Telling The Sun to 'stay tuned', he shared how he would 'love to go back', adding: 'You know what Glastonbury means to any artist'. 'When I performed on the Pyramid Stage, it was one of the most iconic moments for me. I could see that there were so many people from so many different walks of life who'd come to see a myriad of different artists.' Over 100,000 people filled the field, and a further 7,600,000 watched on BBC iPlayer, with many at the time saying he deserved the Sunday Legend slot. His set was sandwiched between Jools Holland and a speech from Jeremy Corbyn, with Katy Perry, The National, and Foo Fighters closing the day. Craig shared: 'I'd never seen so many people and I thought that is what it is normally like. People were like, 'No, Craig, the crowd went over the bank at the back and that is huge.' It was just amazing.' For the past few years, he has posted a clip of the set on Instagram and called the experience a 'core memory'. 'Performing on the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury in 2017 holds a special place in my heart,' the Re-Rewind hitmaker wrote. 'Being able to sing to so many beautiful people at this iconic festival will always be a career highlight.' He's just released a new album, Commitment, after focusing on his TS5 DJ set recently with performances at festivals like Southampton's Summer Sessions and Kew The Music. This ninth album comes 25 years after 7 Days, the song which cemented him as one of the UK's most iconic performers. Craig previously told Metro how he wouldn't re-release any of his older music as it's too precious to his fans. More Trending ''It's so not about me,' he said at the time. 'There was a point when I was first writing music where it was about 'I want to go out there, I want to play this for you, I want to know how it feels to experience this'. 'Then it comes to another point where you recognise that the anecdotes and stories that people tell you over the years of being on holiday, meeting their partner, just a special memory for them with a song that's one of mine. 'It becomes not about me, it's about what am I doing and what service can I bring. I love it.' Got a story?
