Simon Cowell reveals how parenthood with fiancée Lauren Silverman has completely changed his life: ‘Every decision I make I think about Eric’
Standing close together in a room full of some of their dearest friends, Simon Cowell and his fiancée Lauren Silverman take in all they have achieved.
The couple were incredibly proud and honoured to have helped organise a lunch to raise funds and awareness for the London Music Fund, a trust which helps young musicians from low-income families access their talent.
They first came across the organisation – of which the music mogul is an ambassador and Lauren an advisor – when Tom Bower, the husband of the charity’s co-founder and chair Baroness Fleet, Veronica Wadley, was writing a book about Simon.
“One evening Veronica told us the details and asked us to get involved. And we said 100 per cent, yes,” the Britain’s Got Talent judge tells HELLO! exclusively.
Supporting the London Music Fund
At the start of the star-studded event, which was attended by guests including Sarah, Duchess of York and Princess Beatrice, Lauren delivered a passionate speech about the fund, which offers scholarships including an instrument, tuition, a mentor and concert visits to talented youngsters.
“I really wanted to get involved – not just because it’s something I am passionate about, but it fits in with what Simon does with giving young people opportunities to explore their talents,” she told us.
“I feel any creative outlet is such an important thing we can give to our children.”
How fatherhood changed Simon
Speaking exclusively to HELLO! magazine in his first joint interview with Lauren after their charity lunch, Simon explains how he never thought he would become a father – but when it happened, it changed his life forever.
