Who Is Lauren Silverman? Facts About Simon Cowell's Fiancee

Ever since they began dating in 2013, socialite Lauren Silverman has made her fiancé, Simon Cowell, feel like one lucky guy! Although fans never imagined it would happen, the beloved TV star found his one true love and has been living a life of bliss ever since.

In January 2022, a source confirmed to Closer that the America’s Got Talent judge proposed to his longtime love. The intimate proposal took place in the entertainment moguls favorite vacation spot with his late mother, Julie Brett, in mind.

“Simon was super close to his mom who he always brought Barbados with him and was devasted when she passed away a few years ago. She really wanted him to get married. It’s such a shame that she wasn’t there to see the magical moment,” the insider shared.

The X Factor star experienced fatherhood for the first time when he started dating Lauren in 2013. Simon took on the role of Adam’s stepfather after the stunning socialite called it quits with her ex-husband, Andrew Silverman, earlier that year.

Lauren and the former American Idol judge were actually close friends before they took their romantic relationship to the next level years back. Although they are not married just yet, Simon and Lauren have proven they are one of Hollywood’s strongest couples. Occasionally, they would enjoy fun activities like riding their bikes together and going out for date night. In fact, Simon gave his fans a sweet surprise when he kissed Lauren while they were out and about in London.

It’s true that the dark-haired beauty turned her fiancé from an extremely intimidating and tough reality TV judge into a lovable and dedicated partner. During a previous interview with Hello! magazine, Lauren opened up about her incredible relationship with the famous producer.

“I think Simon has changed me. He makes me laugh all the time. I can’t get angry with him because when I’m trying to be cross he just makes me laugh,” she gushed. “I feel I learn so much from him, which is incredibly inspiring. He’s very talented.”

In February 2014, Simon and Lauren solidified their love when they welcomed their son, Eric Cowell, together. Since his birth, his father has been teaching him how to take over his empire. “He has to take over for me,” the dad of one said to The Sun. “I’ve put him in training. He’s down at the shows, he has the earplugs in. I would absolutely love it if he could do what I do.”

“If he gravitates towards academics, then fine — I would encourage him but I have a feeling he’s gonna be more like me,” Simon continued. If Eric turns out to be more like his dad, then we’re sure Lauren will be pleased. She’s dating a really great guy who makes her feel like a queen.

In August 2020, Simon broke his back after falling from his electric bike in the courtyard of his Malibu home. After undergoing surgery to have a metal rod placed, he was back at home on the mend. Throughout his recovery, Lauren was by his side to take care of him and he was beyond grateful for her support.

“[Lauren] was amazing. Both her and Eric, they were like my support. I couldn’t have gotten through it without them, so we got closer,” Simon told ex-girlfriend Terri Seymour during a February 2021 interview with Extra.

She Grew Up in Luxury

Lauren was born on July 26, 1977, to father Steven Davis and mother Carole Eisenberg. The brunette beauty grew up in a life of luxury thanks to being born into the family of an influential real estate developer.

Although she was born in New York City, Lauren grew up in Florida alongside her younger sisters, Sarah, Jodyne, Nicole and Susan. According to Dreshare, the doting mom even attended the exclusive and private Miami Country Day School.

She Was Previously Married

In her early 20s, Lauren met and fell in love with Andrew Silverman. Although it’s unknown what year the two tied the knot, she and the property developer sadly divorced in 2013.

Sources close to the former couple, according to The Famous People, claimed their relationship turned sour after Andrew began dedicating too much time to work. During this time, Lauren reportedly got close to her now ex-husband’s celebrity pal, Simon.

She Is a Mom of Two

Besides the fact that she has Eric with Simon, she is also the proud mama of a son with Andrew named Adam. Lauren welcomed this bundle of joy in 2006.

Around the time of the former pair’s divorce, Lauren and Andrew shared custody of their son. However, according to Good Housekeeping, “there was a strict stipulation that lasted until January 2015, which stated that Simon was required to stay away from the couple’s son, Adam, or face a $50,000 penalty.”

Since then, Simon has played an active role in Adam’s life. Her kid has even been spotted at red carpet events with his mom and stepdad!

In May 2015, Lauren opened up about her family life. “Simon’s house is now a family home,” she gushed to Hello! magazine. “I have three boys now, including him. He’s a great dad. He’s lots of fun, he makes us all laugh a lot.” Aww!

She Wants to Have Another Baby

Lauren has baby fever! It’s been more than five years since the couple welcomed their first child together, and a source close to the twosome revealed Lauren is already thinking about having another kiddo.

“Lauren wants another baby,” the insider exclusively told Closer Weekly in July 2018. “But Simon is happy with just one. He’s very conscious that he’s getting older, so whether Lauren can wear him down, who knows?”

Fans wouldn’t be surprised if another baby was in the cards for the couple considering how much Simon has enjoyed fatherhood so far. “He’s madly in love with his son,” the source continued. “And he’ll openly tell his friends his intense feeling he has for Eric. He’s turned into a big softie with him.”

We sure would love a second Cowell baby!
