Geri Halliwell was “relieved and elated” after Red Bull wrapped up their investigation into team principal Christian Horner after allegations of inappropriate behaviour.

The former Spice Girl singer, 51, has stood solidly by her husband amid claims she had endured three weeks of torment following the claims. He has vehemently denied the allegations.

Geri is said to be delighted that her husband has been cleared.

A source told The Sun: “This has been weeks of hell for Christian and his family. As he has said all along, these claims are ‘nuts’.

“An exhaustive investigation has been carried out and the allegations have proven to be nonsense.”

They continued: “Geri has been rock solid behind Christian — and his whole family is relieved and elated that it’s over. Those feelings are there but no one close to Christian feels like celebrating much after what he’s been through.

The source added that Christian will now focus on winning races.

The 50-year-old, who has led the F1 operation since 2005, will be allowed to continue his role as team principal ahead of the season-opening Bahrain Grand Prix this weekend.

A spokesperson for Red Bull said: “The independent investigation into the allegations made against Mr Horner is complete, and Red Bull can confirm that the grievance has been dismissed. The complainant has a right of appeal.

“Red Bull is confident that the investigation has been fair, rigorous and impartial. The investigation report is confidential and contains the private information of the parties and third parties who assisted in the investigation, and therefore we will not be commenting further out of respect for all concerned. Red Bull will continue striving to meet the highest workplace standards.”

He was reportedly grilled for up to eight hours at an undisclosed location earlier this month. He then continued his Red Bull duties by attending the RB20 launch and overseeing three days of pre-season testing in Bahrain.

Christian and Geri tied the knot in 2015.
