Emma Bunton was a proud mum through and through as she posted a sweet tribute to her rarely seen son Beau on Saturday, marking his 17th birthday.
The 48-year-old Spice Girl shared lots of snaps of the young man on her main profile and raved that she was “so proud” of him.

Birthdays, however, seem to be an exception, as the singer shared pictures of her now tall teenager in a trench coat in front of the Moulin Rouge in Paris.
A third snapshot showed Beau in a more casual look, wearing a cap backwards and eating seafood.
