Simon Cowell trying to get name off divorce papers

By Marriska Fernandes on August 8, 2013 | 10 Comments


New details are emerging in the Simon Cowell/Lauren Silverman scandal. According to Us Weekly, a source close to Lauren revealed that they “started having an affair four years ago.” Last week, the news of Simon knocking up his best friend’s wife blindsided everyone, because Lauren, 36, is still married to Andrew Silverman. The August 19 issue of Us Weekly reveals that Simon, 53, befriended Andrew and Lauren in 2004 at the Barbados’ Sandy Lane resort. Andrew, 37, a co-owner of Panama’s Veneto Hotel & Casino, filed for divorce in July, citing adultery and naming Simon as a co-respondent. However, Simon’s lawyers are working to get his name off the divorce papers, according to a report in the New York Daily News. “The lawyers are working out an agreement to drop the adultery claims,” a source close to Lauren told the paper. For his part, Simon, who’s currently on vacation, has not said anything about the situation to the media. The source confided, “Every year he goes to either St. Tropez of St. Barth’s. Last year Andrew and Lauren went with him.” Lauren, who posted the above photo to her Instagram, is reportedly hiding out in the Hamptons with her seven-year-0ld son, Adam. ~ Marriska Fernandes

    He looks incredibly disinterested in her.

    If a woman you were dating got pregnant out of the blue, but had something on you that could ruin you, wouldn’t you feel the same way?
    As I said, Simon Cowell has simply lose his mind over this.
    Why don’t celebrities ever take advantage of abortion services???

    Wow Lou, why doesn’t he just man up and take responsibility for his actions? We all screw up at times but having an abortion is probably not always the best option to ‘fix’ the issue. Maybe you should speak to a woman before making such a statement.
    Personally I think the guy is a douche, and if he can have a four year affair with his ” best friends wife”, then I think that just proves it

    No question that Simon is a douche, but surprisingly not as smart as I would have thought. With all his money and power, it’s baffling why he would get mixed up in such a mess. Could it be True Love? HA HA! Nice to see that everyone’s sh!t stinks!

    Wonder if he knows the words to “Cry Me a River”. These 2 skanks, seem like they were made for each other! It would be pathetic, if he wasn’t so pitiful, already.

    Uhm, isn’t this picture a little inappropriate if you are on vacation with your husband?
    I’m thinking the husband had to know something was up if this was a 4 year affair.
    This woman is disgusting and looks like a poor role model for any child!

    uh…how can you argue to drop adultery claims if there is evidence that you committed adultery.

  8. the original N.I. /Nobody Important/ • August 9, 2013 @ 9:21 AM

    how?… because he lacks accountability… because he has-been, is, and always will be a douchebag.

  9. Janet • August 9, 2013 @ 2:34 PM

    I agree with Monkey, this is really inappropriate. She looks like she just won a lottery because she’s sleeping with Simon. She must be an idiot. He doesn’t want to get married. He doesn’t want children. She’s going to find herself alone, because obviously her husband doesn’t want her anymore.
