We love a celebrity's love life, and you probably didn't know that Britain's Got Talent judge Simon Cowell has had quite a history with famous ex-partners over the years. Simon has settled down with partner Lauren Silverman since 2013.
Simon, 62, is now very much a family man, being a father to seven-year-old Eric, who has an adorable nickname for him. Speaking to Entertainment Tonight, Simon, who was recovering from breaking his back in an e-scooter crash, said: "I never would've had this kind of time with Eric before. He was amazing, because I was very embarrassed when I got home from the hospital.
"And he came in, because I've got all these metal rods in my back and screws and he went, 'Dad, you look like Iron Man.' And I went, 'Yeah, I'm like Iron Man, yeah.'"
But long before his days as the head of his family, he had quite the few famous flings from Page 3 models to rumours of being with an X Factor judge. Here is the low-down on every single partner Simon has had.
