Simon Cowell Introduces Son Eric Philip

Congratulations to you both and your little bundle of joy!!!!!!

Goodness, becoming a parent at 54. Good luck to them all, I wish them the best.

What’s not so funny is that her ex-husband is considered the legal father of Simon’s child…

Just because Cowell will be in his 70’s when the kid is in high school, and just because he will always be 20 years older than Silverman, what could go wrong?

congrats lauren!!!! your life-time meal ticket has finally arrived!

That poor child. To have this idiot as a Father. The good news is the child will likely be raised by hired help.

A ding dong for a ding a ling – the mother.

I’m sure with his ego, it’ll be Simon Jr.

Well baby and mommy are set for life. Congrats!

Yep, he has a trophy Viagra baby. Be all puffed up and proud, Cowell. I daresay there’s no chance that you and the baby’s mother, who is your friend’s wife, will ever marry. I don’t care. In the future, however, the child might care.

Great name! Congrats!

Normal name, how refreshing.

Shouldn’t you wait for DNA results before you actually call him a Dad?

She’s totally divorced from her ex. Simon is legal father if he signed the birth cert.

Congratulations best wishes to everyone.

He’s so in love with himself suprised he didn’t name the baby Simon.

You’re an idiot Simon. She screwed around on her husband with YOU. What makes you think she won’t screw around on you with some else down the road. What are you? Special? You’re as dumb as a box of rocks!

congrats simon, and lauren. and baby Eric love the name

Congratulations to the both of you. You deserve to be happy now! So the three of you be happy. God Bless you all.

What a beautiful sentiment behind the baby’s name! Congratulations to Simon and Lauren!

congratulations simon.. very happy for you.. enjoy! God bless.

nothing is more heart warming than a man who names his newborn son after his father! I am sure-his dad is smiling down on his new grandson!

Simon!! Awesome news!! Congrats to all!!

@Jessica…Laurens divorce has already been finalized…her ex-husband has not rights to the baby…come on girl, get your facts straight…

Agreed
1Nice name! :-)…I hope he see’s a TOTALLY different side of himself…less selfish…a REAL good father. 🙂

Nice to see a softer side to Simon. They got together in an unconventional way but hopefully they can make this work.

A few positives about this – The baby has a normal name and Lauren scored big time! (Sorry Terri Seymour, you should have just gotten pregnant with Simon for keeps).

“It was kind of uncomfortable. You know, the situation. But these things happen and everything is kind of calm now and I’m happy.” No, Simon, these things don’t really happen unless you are sleeping with the wife of a good friend. Get Real here.

I’ m glad the baby is healthy but don’t pretend that the affair with your best friends wife is okay the bible says do not commit adultery wow so because you are rich don’t ever feel you can do that I will pray for the both of you .there’s a old saying what goes around comes around be careful cause what you did will come back at you promise

It is nice to see this softer side of Simon. Hopefully, though it was not a picture perfect start, they can live happily ever after. Babies and children have a way of changing our lives.

so what, rich old guy f***ed the wife of his best friend and that whore/socialite/golddigger gor knocked up. good plan Lauren, I am sure you could avoid this if you wanted to. so ladies, all we need are pretty faces, good working ovaries and greediness. forget about moral and other kids!

It’s amazing how so many people here are so judgemental about situations we don’t know about. In Europe, yes we do find your opinions somewhat outdated. So what about his age, so what if they’re not married, so what if anything. As long as those involved have managed to find a way to go about it for the child, no-one should really care.

Congratulations, and thank you for picking a normal name. So refreshing.

This poor woman is so happy she got her man, but alas, this is a guy who will never be attentive to one woman. She really didn’t win anything except heartache.

@ Anonymous
She won herself a meal ticket. I know her ex was wealthy, but was he Simon wealthy? She doesn’t care about love, she wants money and fame.

@Ridiculous
If what you said is true the baby doesn’t need luck, he needs a miracle.

People like this suddenly find out there’s something in the world more to love than themselves This baby will change everything for Simon He’ll suddenly be grounded and have real emotions to deal with

This child will be a visual reminder of an ADULTERESS RELATIONSHIP. These two should be ASHAMED of themselves, especially the gold digging lauren who was the one who purposely planned this pregnancy to get her claws in his vank account.

I’m happy to hear the little one arrived safely. As for his parents, I can’t say much that hasn’t already been said a million times. I do hope Lauren is able to spend time with her other son, too, since it’s seems she left him to continue gallivanting with Cowell and his band of girlfriends these past few months.

Cute pics, still don’t care for the parents, but cute pics.

So happy for you both! I can see so much joy and happiness in this picture. Congratulations on a healthy and beautiful baby. Such a blessing to love and create love between two people.

Well, regardless of the circumstances that brought this baby into the world, he IS a sweet and beautiful baby. God bless him and protect him from harm.

This is awesome. I cant wait to see the little guy in a white t-shirt like his daddy =)

He’s precious! I bet we’re all going to see a new side to Simon now that he has a baby!

Oh Lord in heaven, please place one arm around me and the other over my mouth. I’m outta here……

Beautiful baby! I wish them all a lifetime of happiness! Simon looks so proud & happy, that is so sweet.

Let’s keep the nastiness to ourselves. This baby didn’t ask to be born in this situation & he’s darn cute. Let’s congratulate them on their healthy son.

Cute

If the real Simon is the same as the man he puts out on TV I feel for that little guy. He’s likely not going to have a very easy psychological go of it…

people are so rude on here ok yes they made a huge mistake by sleeping together why she was married but who are we to judge we all have made mistakes whether it be big or small we have all made them a cute healthy baby was born we should be giving congrats not judging

John 8:7 if anyone without sin cast the first stone

Who doesn’t love new born babies;)

Thrilled for you both…he looks as if he as the X Factor. Great photograph you all. He will the something money couldn’t buy you. Congratulations!!!

What a gorgeous picture!

awww, sweet photos, especially the one with simon holding baby…some people u never picture as being a parent…but then u see them in their new role…and they embrace their new life as a parent. U never know!! Congrats.!

the baby is handsome, and born on Valentines day, how cute

OMG Simon Cowell is human after all. How sweet are his posts about his new baby? 🙂

Gorgeous baby! … And on another note, I think people need to remember the age-old adage – “If you have nothing good to say, say nothing.” … I agree with someone who recently said “you know, in this society it’s become who can say the snarkiest, worst, most offensive, and/or nastiest comment before anyone else.”. I’m with her on it. I’m sick of it to. Either congratulate or don’t comment. Simple. Freedom of Speech goes both ways. You might be free to say it, but you’re also responsible for what you say and how you say it and the effects that result. No one here knows them personally, so don’t get sanctimonious on their perceived lifestyles.

Congrats to you all! Simon looks completely in love with his son. Being an older father isn’t all bad. I think he can appreciate things alot more.

That little boy already has him wrapped around his finger….Simon is a big softy!

Did they have the DNA test already? He’s a beautiful baby, I’m so happy for Simon and Lauren.

hmmm, i don’t know, if i was a dude, i’d question that, how do you know if the baby is his, coulda slept around, you don’t know, anyways very questionable is all i’m sayin’.

There is too much negativity in the world already, let’s just congratulate instead of hate. I think it’s fantastic that Simon named this handsome little guy after his father; very sweet.

Check out that last photo – I have never seen Simon’s expression look so soft.

Congratulation!!

Wow! Must say these photos really make me change my opinion of him. He looks genuinely happy.

Congratulations to Simon 😊…I Just Hope He Makes A Better father Than He Did A Judge On X Factor. He Was so Bitterly Mean.He Was All About HimSelf. But Then A Baby Can Change Someone All Togather💜

Why are they making it seem like it’s the three of them. What about her other 8 year old son? Not once has Simon spoken of her son as “his stepson” Is he not a father of two? Or does the other child not count in his world !! And Lauren doesn’t seem to pull her son into this new found family of hers !

Wow. I can’t believe how many people have nothing better to do than throw the bible at them. If you object to the way this baby came into the world than by all means, live your life differently.

You know, things happen in life. I have been married for thirty years, I would never have sex with my best friends husband/wife. However, these things happen.

I wish this little handsome fellow all of the love and protection in the world. Congrats!

Simon looks content. They make a beautiful family. And the baby is super cute too.

Where is her 8 year old son? Not so shocking considering her moral choices so far.

Maybe its me and its called morals – but wasnt this woman pregnant while still married to her husband, so that makes her a adultress, and also saw where someone wrote they were in a long relationship? Really it takes 9 mos and a couple of months she was married so assuming 7 mos is a long relationship to adulters.

Congratulations Lauren and Simon. Seems you two made a beautiful baby. Just enjoy him.

A beautiful baby!

Treasure and cherish your son. He’ll grow very quickly. Congratulations!!!!

Congrats Simon! All that matters is the baby is healthy and loved!

didn’t the ex husband ordered in the divorce papers that simon has to stay away from the 8yrs old son? i am very sure i read something like that, if they don’t, lauren has to pay a fine of 50k as punishment to the ex husband. so now it should be clear why he isn’t in the picture. it’s only valid tho until 2015.

Now to keep the paparazzi away I think it’s WRONG that they can do that to the children of celebrities they were the cause of Princess Diana and nothing happen to them for causing her death and the children don’t want them around it upsets them God Bless your family enjoy. ❤

I not sure why you all need to be so negative… what’s going on in their lives happens everyday to people who are not celebrities but because this story is about a celebrity and his girlfriend your being rude and ugly about it. Yall are why the world is the way it is its crazy why can’t you be happy for them they just had a beautiful baby boy i mean seriously grow up and stop judging people

So this baby was made, when she was still married to his best friend. I guess, she went for the richer guy.

I’m not a fan of Simon’s work. However, the picture of him and his son is the best picture I have EVER seen of him. He looks happy and content.

Where’s her other son?!

Congratulations on your healthy baby. Simon, I hope you won’t be so hurtful with your comments now that you have a child. You will know what it feels like when someone is unnecessarily cruel to someone you love.

I have always loved Simon but him and commitment don’t mix well. I also feel Lauren chose the man with the bigger…. Bank account. These woman get pregnant right away even lying about birt control to have a life long meal ticket.

Well, I think both were very wrong for how they went about getting together BUT then there is never a good way to end a relationship and it does happen married or not…so they got together and nobody is happy about it obviously from the posts below. I am gonna look beyond that and just say the baby is really cute and I hope the baby has a good life. Congrats and good luck to them all.

Lovely baby, hopefully it’s really Simon’s son. But I see his ex-girlfriends too… Love and baby’s for the others too!

Make the gold digger take a DNA test It looks like Andrew Silvermans kid.. You fool Simon lol!!

This guy is a narcissistic jerk.

If people can’t say something nice then don’t comment at all. I think that Simon is making a great dad. You can see the love and pride in his eyes.
