Sinitta has opened up about her relationship with ex-boyfriend, Simon Cowell, who she hinted had recently married Lauren Silverman, who is the mum of his son, Eric
Sinitta shocked Loose Women fans today when she revealed Simon Cowell called her while he was in bed with his partner, Lauren Silverman.
Simon, 64, dated Sinitta, 60, for two years in the eighties before going on to have an on-off relationship with the singer for 20 years. He then met Lauren, who is the mum of his son, Eric, and who has reportedly tied the knot with Simon, according to Sinitta.
The So Macho star was talking about her close relationship with the media mogul alongside Loose Women panellist, Dame Kelly Holmes, who said her pal had called Simon on New Years Eve.

Speaking about the exchange, Kelly said: “They’re such good friends. She called him on New Year’s Eve while he was in bed with Lauren.” Correcting her, Sinitta said: “No, he called me.” Kelly continued: “We were all on FaceTime and it was lovely. That’s how great your friendship is.”
Last week Sinitta, who revealed today (August 19) she was loved up with her boyfriend, who she’s been dating for a year and a half, hinted that Simon and Lauren were now married after she dubbed the mum-of-two”Mrs Cowell” in a recent press chat.
The X Factor judge popped the question to his socialite girlfriend Lauren in December, 2021, less than two decades after the pair first bumped into one another while on holiday in Barbados.
Since his proposal, Simon and Lauren have not been spotted exchanging their vows and a date has yet to be announced. But his ex-partner and good friend Sinitta has recently let slip that the couple have already tied the knot.
The British-American singer appeared to spill the beans when she was asked if Simon had set a date for his wedding with Lauren. “Oh, are they not married yet?”, she asked.
This left Woman Magazine stunned as Sinitta was then asked if Simon and Lauren could have eloped. “I’m not saying anything, but I’m sure they are married. I call her Mrs Cowell anyway, so they may as well be”, she affirmed.
However, speaking to the Mirror, the Toy Boy star later clarified: “Apologies to everyone, I would like to clarify a comment I made in response to a question about when Lauren and Simon might tie the knot. When asked, I playfully responded by pretending to be confused and joked.”
She added: “My intention was to deflect the question with humour, not to suggest that they had secretly married. To be clear, if they had married in private and I were aware of it, I would respect their privacy and not disclose such information.”
The Mirror has contacted Simon’s rep for comment on this story.
