LONDON, Feb. 2 (UPI) -- The Spice Girls have cut short their reunion world tour, citing "family and personal commitments."

A Spice Girls spokesman said unspecified commitments by each member of the "Wannabe" pop group would result in the reunion tour officially ending Feb. 2 in Toronto, the BBC reported Saturday.

"Sadly, the tour needs to come to an end by the end of February due to family and personal commitments for Emma, Geri, Mel B, Melanie C and Victoria," the unidentified spokesman said.

The group's reunion tour began Dec. 2 and has included appearances in Canada, Germany, Spain and the United States.

A statement from the group hinted the singers could tour again in the future.

"There have been so many highlights and good times that we know it will be hard to be apart after Toronto," the Spice Girls said.

"Really sorry if we didn't get to see you this time round. We all have other commitments in our lives now, but who knows what will happen next."
