The media mogul, Simon Cowell had climbed the ladder of success. He received a huge success and fame with “Pop Idol,” “American Idol,” “America’s Got Talent,” and “The X Factor.”
As he was being in relationship with many different women, he never thought about marriage and having children.
As he was the judge of “X Factor,” Cowell stated that he doesn’t know if he would be able to take care of a baby, and he joked that he would take a children, if they would skip their infant age.
He was also sure that he would never get married too. He was naming himself a, “hopeless boyfriend.” Cowell also stated that he was too “weird” to love.
In 2000s, he was in a relationship with Terri Seymour, he said that he was “too old to have a baby.” And added, “I don’t believe in marriage, certainly not in this business. The truth is that you get married and in a year or two they clean you out! It’s just not going to work.”
When he talked about the legal aspects of marriage, he compared it with the contracts he makes with musicians. “It doesn’t work – it changes you. That whole culture just puts you in a very weakened position,” Cowell said.
As he stated that he doesn’t believe in marriage, he tried to propose to Mezhgan Hussainy in 2010. Cowell stated, “So, it’s probably not going to happen,” after he made more than 60 proposals to her.
He was 53 when his relationship with Lauren Silverman started. They met in 2004, on a vacation in Barbados. Silverman was married to her husband, Cowell’s friend. And Cowell was dating with Seymour.
When it was 2013, Silverman was reportedly carrying Cowell’s child, as she was still married with her then-husband. It was reported that she was filed for divorce, as she was, “unhappy in her marriage.”
Few months after the pregnancy rumors surfaced, Cowell had confirmed that he was the father of the baby Silverman was carrying.
“Things are changing in my life right now for the better,” Cowell stated, “She’s a very special girl,” he continued.
In 2014, the couple had welcomed their son, Eric. Silverman chose the name to honor Cowell’s father.
As Cowell had made straight comments about being a father in the past, he said, “Literally within seconds of him being born, I got it! I was born to be a dad,” Cowell said after his son was born.
Few months later Eric was born, Silverman’s divorce was finalized. Andrew Silverman had talked about the infidelity which caused their separation.
As Cowell and Silverman were free to start their relationship, Cowell was sure that he would marry with Silverman, as he was making plans.
Cowell’s brother, Tony had stated that his brother had changed after he started his relationship with Silverman and after he welcomed his son, Eric. Tony stated, “Since having his son, Eric, with Lauren, Simon has completely changed his life and, for the first time, he appears to be happy and content.”
“Now, I just cannot imagine my life without him. He’s the most amazing thing that ever happened to me. I adore him,” Cowell said about his son.

“We like the same things, we laugh a lot; we always have stuff to say to each other,” Cowell said about his relationship with Silverman.
Cowell also chose to do everything by himself, in regards of their wedding. Even Laura has no idea Cowell is planning for their big day. He doesn’t want the same thing, what happened in his 50th birthday, where he faced with 600 people as guests.
As he wanted to be married with Silverman, it seemed that it will not happen. They now decided to not plan anything, and wanted their wedding to happen spontaneously.
