Halliwell dating Italian yacht tycoon

LONDON - Former Spice Girls singer Geri Halliwell is dating Italian yacht tycoon Fabrizio Politi.

Thesun.co.uk reports that Politi has around 300 employees working for him and he was pictured having an intimate meal with Halliwell in Paris. They met at the opening of a club in Florence.

The two were spotted wearing engagement rings as they walked around in London.

‘It’s definitely the real deal. They’ve really hit it off. Geri can’t believe how well they get on. Fabrizio is great with her daughter. They spent as much time as possible with each other over Christmas and the New Year,’ said a close friend of Halliwell.
