The reformed Spice Girls are cutting their world tour short, following rumors of fighting within the group and poor ticket sales in some cities.
The girl group blame "family and personal commitments" for ending their tour in Toronto on February 26. Shows in Beijing, Sydney, Cape Town and Buenos Aires will be axed.
"Sadly, the tour needs to come to an end by the end of February due to family and personal commitments for Emma, Geri, Mel B, Melanie C and Victoria,” a spokesperson for the group said.
"It was announced in June that, as well as the Europe and the US, the girls planned to visit Australia, China, South Africa and Argentina.
"Due to the phenomenal demand for tickets in the UK and the US, along with the touring logistics for such a massive production, it was not possible to fit everything in."
The group’s statement also thanked their fans for coming to their shows, saying: "It was all so mad the first time round, so we've really been able to appreciate it properly this time.
"There have been so many highlights and good times that we know it will be hard to be apart after Toronto.
"Really sorry if we didn't get to see you this time round. We all have other commitments in our lives now, but who knows what will happen next."
