Emma Bunton hosted a party like no other to celebrate Tate's 13th birthday and gave her followers a rare insight in her family life.
The former Spice Girl, 48, took to Instagram on Monday, May 6, and left many of her fans gobsmacked as she showed off the birthday bash she'd organised for her youngest child, which featured pink balloons and an elaborate menu.
In her post, the singer shared snaps of Tate and a few friends sat in the living room with pink balloons floating in front of the garden entrance, "Happy Birthday" bunting hanging across the doors and a giant birthday card displayed on the coffee table. Pink balloons were also organised in a small arrangement to decorate the garden accordingly.

The pair split a year later and gave their relationship another try from 2000 to 2002.
After separating a second time, the pair reconciled in 2004 and Emma announced her first pregnancy in January, 2007, giving birth on August 10 that same year to a son named Beau. They welcomed Tate on May 6, 2011, shortly after Emma and Jade became engaged.
Since slipping her engagement ring on, Emma had maintained she did not want to get married in a civil or religious ceremony but she eventually walked down the aisle with Jade in a quiet romantic wedding ceremony at Soho Farmhouse in the Cotswolds in July, 2021. Emma broke the news shortly after on her Heart FM show saying: "We had the most perfect day, we didn’t take our eyes off each other, it was very romantic."
