Christian Horner’s sexting accuser axed from another racing job over “trust issues”

The sex text accuser of former F1 boss Christian Horner has been axed from another motor racing job.

The British woman has lost her new role after less than a year over “trust issues”.

Horner, 52, husband of Spice Girl Geri Halliwell, was forced out of his principal’s job at Red Bull over embarrassing texts with the glamorous employee, who can’t be named.

But he yesterday confided to pals that he feels “vindicated”.

His accuser was relieved of her new duties in a dramatic airport swoop ordered by her US-based bosses as she prepared to fly to last month’s Hungarian Grand Prix.

Her dismissal was said to be due to a “lack of discretion”.

She left Red Bull last October with a reported £3million payment.

A source told The Sun: “It was effectively hush money to make the story go away.

“But there is every sign that she won’t be getting a penny this time.”

Geri, who has three kids with Horner, stood by him when texts were leaked in 2024.

He was cleared of impropriety by Red Bull but left last year with a reported £80million payout.

His accuser’s latest employer, who cannot be identified, said it would not comment on “personnel matters”.

In 2024, Horner was put in the the focus of a media storm when hundreds of WhatsApp messages were sent to F1 teams and news outlets.

The messages appeared to suggest Horner pestered the woman for pictures behind his wife’s back.

At one point the female employee asked her boss how he would feel if Geri were to message someone in the way he was.

Horner was accused of repeatedly asking the woman — who worked with him at Red Bull’s Milton Keynes HQ – to delete their chat history.

The woman allegedly grew tired of her boss’s pleas for pictures and sexy chat, according to the WhatsApp dossier.

Ginger Spice Geri endured three weeks of torment in which she was said to have stood by her man after being left in “floods of tears” when the scandal first broke.

A KC cleared Horner for a second time in August after the unnamed accuser launched an appeal following the internal probe.

The Spice Girl apparently found out about the devastating leak while mid-air en route to Bahrain.

Horner was later sacked as Red Bull team principal with immediate effect after 20 years in charge in July, 2025.

He was the longest reigning F1 boss after becoming head honcho of the Austrian team during its inception in 2005.

Horner had initially kept his job in the immediate aftermath of the scandal.

But he was let go as Red Bull slumped down both the Drivers and Constructors standings.

Horner led Red Bull in two phases to world championship success.

The first was through Sebastian Vettel’s glory days from 2009-14 and then Verstappen‘s current era – which could end sooner rather than later.

In total, Red Bull with Horner won eight drivers’ championships and six constructors’ titles.

Horner’s last race in charge was the July 2025 British GP at Silverstone, where Max Verstappen started on pole position but finished fifth after a spin in the wet.

Horner reportedly had another row with Jos Verstappen, father of Max, at Silverstone, according to former F1 driver Ralf Schumacher.

Schumacher told the Boxengasse-podcast: “There was another argument or a heated exchange, at least visually and verbally between Jos, Christian Horner, and the press officer.

“You could see that Jos was anything but happy with the situation”.

The clash followed a series of rows between Verstappen Snr and Horner, with the Dutchman repeatedly calling for Horner’s dismissal after the sexting scandal broke hours before the Bahrain Grand Prix in 2024.

Jos and Horner had been at loggerheads ever since the Brit was accused of controlling and inappropriate behaviour.
