Emma Bunton had a surprise in store for her fans on Thursday. The former Spice Girl took to Instagram to share an incredibly rare family photo in honour of son Tate's birthday.

Emma, 45, shared a candid snapshot showing Tate stood behind some pink balloons and wearing a sun visor, with gold happy birthday balloons visible in the background. Fans were surprised to see how long the little boy's hair has grown over lockdown, with Tate's locks now falling well past his shoulders.
