Emma Bunton aka Baby Spice has teased the possibility of the Spice Girls reuniting to mark their 20th anniversary saying they have held talks about it, but fans will have to "wait and see" what happens.

The Spice Girls' first single Wannabe was released in 1996 and Bunton told RTÉ TEN that they might have a special reunion in store to mark the occasion: "It's incredible that we have amazing fans out there who have kept our legacy alive and it is our 20 year anniversary coming up very soon, all I can say is there have been talks, so we'll just have to wait and see."

Bunton, who has two sons with her fiancé Jade Jones, also spoke about juggling her family life and career saying she is no different to any other working mum.

"I juggle, just like every other mother in the world, I juggle everything, but my priority is of course my gorgeous boys who I just adore, they're good boys, they're both at school now so they're keeping busy," she said.

Bunton recently said she doesn't know when she will get around to planning her wedding to Jade Jones.

We caught up with the singer, who is an ambassador for the Pampers and UNICEF campaign 1 Pack = 1 Vaccine, as she marked the 10th anniversary of their work to eliminate Maternal & Newborn Tetanus (MNT).

Bunton said of the Irish support behind the campaign, "From my many visits to Ireland with both The Spice Girls and my Mum to visit our family in Co. Wexford, I know how generous and compassionate Irish people are. It’s great to see how the efforts of parents in Ireland have helped parents in some of the world’s poorest countries by donating over 21,000,000 million vaccines over the past nine years."
