The America’s Got Talent judge proposed to his longtime love Lauren Silverman in December 2021, and the couple are currently planning their wedding.
Cowell and his fiancée first met in 2004 while on vacation in Barbados, although Silverman was married to businessman Andrew Silverman at the time. Years later, Cowell and Silverman began quietly seeing each other and in July 2013, PEOPLE confirmed that the couple were expecting a child together and that the Silvermans had filed for divorce.
Meeting Silverman was clearly a game-changer for the British television personality — prior to their relationship, Cowell had made public statements about not knowing if he ever wanted to get married or have kids.
Since welcoming their son Eric in 2014, however, Cowell has said he loves being a father.
“From that moment I saw the scan, I was like ‘That is it, I’m besotted.’ Now I just cannot imagine my life without him,” Cowell said of his son during an interview with Kelly Clarkson. “He’s the most amazing thing that ever happened to me. I adore him.”From welcoming a son together to their beach engagement in Barbados, here is everything to know about Simon Cowell and Lauren Silverman’s relationship.
Cowell and Silverman first met in 2004 in Barbados. Silverman, an entrepreneur and socialite, was on vacation with her then-husband, whom she shares one son with.
