From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

Victoria Beckham has ruled out an appearance on the forthcoming Spice Girls tour despite admitting she’ll feel “left out” when it takes place.

Speaking to The Guardian, the former band member – who is now a full-time fashion designer – said: “I’m excited to see it. And I’m sure when I’m there and they are on stage, there will be a part of me that feels a bit left out. Because even after all this, a part of me will always be a Spice Girl.”

Millions of people attempted to purchase tickets for the Spice Girls’ long-awaited reunion tour when sales opened in November.

Demand was “off the charts”, according to Andrew Parsons, Ticketmaster’s managing director. They will play sell-out shows at venues, including London’s Wembley Stadium, from May until June.

Beckham also addressed the continuous marriage break-up rumours surrounding her and husband David Beckham, which were fuelled once again last week when her family appeared on the cover of Vogue without him.

“It can get quite frustrating”, she said, adding: “But I leave it to my PR team. I don’t get involved.

“People are interested in my personal life. And sometimes that works in my favour and sometimes it’s things that I don’t like. I’m not going to let it get me down.”

The couple celebrate their 20th wedding anniversary in July.
