Halliwell to marry backing dancer?

Geri Halliwell is to marry her backing dancer in September, reports claim.

The 35-year-old has agreed to wed partner Ivan 'Flipz' Velez at St Bride's church on London's Fleet Street.

Halliwell, who has two-year-old daughter Bluebell, grew close to Velez on the recent Spice Girls reunion tour. They originally met on the set of her It's Raining Men video in 2001.

A source told the Daily Star: "Geri has a huge diamond and an even bigger grin on her face now that she and Ivan are marrying.

"It's been a whirlwind affair but when you know, you know, and she doesn't care if she's criticised for being hasty. Her daughter loves Ivan and that's the only opinion she cares about."

The insider added: "She's always wanted to be a September bride."
