Simon Cowell & Lauren Silverman Pretend to be a Normal Happy Couple in St. Tropez

Damage control alert: Simon Cowell is pretending to embark upon a relationship with his baby mamma Lauren Silverman. Simon and Lauren are now expecting their first child together after it was revealed that the couple were hooking up on the side while Lauren’s husband Andrew was completely unaware of course. Now divorced, Lauren has swiftly moved on to Simon and appears quite content with her situation (carrying a very expensive baby in her womb). She jetted in to St. Tropez and the two were seen actually holding hands and sitting side-by-side in St.Tropez.

Is this for real? Will Simon Cowell actually have a normal relationship with Lauren and settle down? Odds are, he’s just hoping to paper over the cracks until those headlines die off. Then, a few months after the baby arrives, he’ll quietly shuffle out the door without saying goodbye and will nicely send her a big lump of child support without further mention of his offspring. Maybe he’ll see it from time to time, if he’s so inclined. No pressure though, because Simon’s a hanging loose kinda guy.

Who thinks this is actually real? And who thinks Simon is just hoping to shut the media up while he figures out how to get out of this one so he can spend endless summer days in the throes of passion on his yacht with randoms who all happen to look identical (just examine his dating history and you’ll see what I mean, they could basically all be twins, creepy and begs the question why he bothers seeking more out). Looks like a nice fake babymoon though, doesn’t it..
