It was recently revealed that Simon Cowell is soon to be a father for the first time, after hooking up with his close friend’s wife in secret, Lauren Silverman. Lauren and her husband Andrew are now estranged following the baby news and appear to be headed for a divorce (Andrew filed papers citing Simon as one of the causes). Simon is remaining mostly quiet on the subject, except to say that it is “one of those things” and he isn’t willing to speak in much detail because people’s feelings are involved. He casually joked firstly:
”I haven’t read the newspapers. Am I missing something?”
And expanded:
”There are a lot of things I will eventually clear up when the time is right. I really have to be sensitive here because there are a lot of people’s feelings involved.”
Simon says he just has to stay silent on the subject:
“I appreciate the question. Unfortunately I have to keep this, for the moment, private. It’s just one of those things.”
