On Valentine’s Day, 2014, Eric was born, and while Cowell was overjoyed to become a father, he struggled with it initially. Simon, who never expected to be a father, wasn’t proud of his affair.
“It is not something I am proud of or wanted to happen in terms of hurting anyone. It just happened,” he said.
”He’s the most amazing thing that ever happened to me. I adore him,” America’s Got Talent judge said.
Eric is named after Cowell’s late father, Eric Selig Phillip Cowell, who died in 1999. Recently, Simon also praised his son for making him stop getting fillers and injections in his face. It went so far that Eric got scared by his father’s face.
“There was a stage where I might have gone a bit too far. I saw a picture of me from ‘before’ the other day, and didn’t recognise it as me first of all,” Simon told The Sun and continued: “Eric was in hysterics. Enough was enough. There is no filler in my face at all now. Zero.”
Simon Cowell has created himself a media empire. But also, he’s met the love of his life and had a wonderful son. He’s doing all he can to recover from his horrible injury, and hopefully, we’ll see him as a judge on television before too long.
