Inside new pals Colin Farrell, Geri Halliwell and Christian's cosy Bafta chat
Colin Farrell, Geri Halliwell and Christian Horner made an unlikely trio at the BAFTA Film Awards on Sunday night.
The Irish actor, 46, enjoyed a cosy chat with the couple as the ceremony came to an end at the Royal Albert Hall in London over the weekend - with onlookers noting how relaxed and happy the new friends looked as they spoke about their careers and made plans for the future.
Colin - who is still tipped to win an Oscar next month despite being beaten by Austin Butler at the BAFTA Film Awards - congratulated Ginger Spice's husband on his recent wins with his Red Bull Racing team after Geri flagged the actor down before he left the hall on Sunday night.
As the evening's winners gathered on the stage for a group photo and a meet and greet with Prince William and Kate Middleton, many of the star-studded guests began to make their way to dinner and continue the evening elsewhere.
