"HA! This is how I feel right now! I AM READY," Adele wrote.
Spice Girls member Emma Bunton reacted to the photo during her Heart radio show Tuesday, according to the Evening Standard. She voiced her love for Adele, whom she said she once briefly met after a gig.
"I was at a gig and I was on my way out, getting into my car. And she came running up to me and she just went, 'Oh my God, I'm such a big Spice Girls fan and I can't even look at you. And now I'm gonna go because I'm gonna cry,'" Bunton recalled.
"And she ran off and actually it was so quick, I didn't realize until I was halfway down the stars and someone went, 'That's Adele.' And I was like, 'I love you, too!'" she said.
Adele covered the Spice Girls song "Spice Up Your Life" during a concert in 2016 and sang "Wannabe" during her episode of Carpool Karaoke with James Corden the same yet.
