London (Trends Wide) – Simon Cowell and his longtime partner, Lauren Silverman, are getting married, a representative for the “America’s Got Talent” judge confirmed to Trends Wide on Wednesday.
The representative did not elaborate, but The Sun newspaper reported that the couple got engaged during a recent getaway to Barbados.
Cowell, 62, and Silverman, now 44, began their public relationship in 2013, shortly after Silverman’s ex-husband and close friend of Cowell’s, Andrew Silverman, filed for divorce in July, claiming the couple were involved in an extramarital affair.
The “X Factor” creator and Silverman, a New York socialite, welcomed their first son, Eric, in 2014. Silverman also has a son from a previous marriage.
Asked earlier on fellow “American Idol” star Ryan Seacrest’s radio show if he planned to marry Silverman, Cowell said, “Let’s put it that way, I wouldn’t expect her to be a single mom.”
The reality show executive told British magazine OK! in November that he and Silverman are “closer than ever,” revealing that the “romance lives on” between them.
“Covid-19 was the real test,” he said.
“Like everyone else, we’ve been cooped up for a long time and that’s when you realize whether or not you really enjoy each other’s company. And we really, really did. So to answer your question… yes, the romance lives on!”
