Simon Cowell Confirms Baby Reports

After weeks of speculation, Simon Cowell has confirmed that he is to become a father for the first time.

Speaking to the BBC, the 53-year-old said: "Things are changing in my life right now, for the better.

"I'm proud to be a dad... It's something I hadn't thought of before, but now I know I feel good about it."

When asked about the mother of his unborn child, Cowell replied: "She is a very special girl."

The music mogul hit the headlines earlier this month after a US publication claimed he was to become a father alongside socialite Lauren Silverman. Adding to the story, Ms Silverman was still technically married to Andrew Silverman – one of Cowell's close friends – at the time.

Last week, the Silvermans, who have a son together, confirmed their divorce last week.

Cowell made the comments on the red carpet for the world premiere of One Direction's 'This Is Us' in London last night (20 August), but refused to discuss the relationship further.

According to Us Magazine, he told reporters at the event: "Unfortunately, I have to keep this for the moment private. It's just one of those things. But thank you very much anyway."

The parents-to-be have not been seen together since news of their secret relationship, which allegedly began four years ago, was revealed, but it has been reported that Cowell is arranging for his lover to meet his mum.

A source previously said: "Lauren is flying to the UK to be formally introduced to Simon's mum. He's more nervous about that than becoming a dad! Simon's mum is the boss.

"He wants her approval, and for Lauren and Julie to become close. It means everything to him that the two most important women in his life form a good bond."
