Cowell breaks silence on reports of fatherhood

Simon Cowell has broken his silence on reports he is to become a father, saying it is "one of those things".

The 53-year-old music mogul is allegedly expecting his first child with New York socialite Lauren Silverman – the estranged wife of his friend Andrew Silverman – and while he failed to deny the news, he vowed to remain silent on the details in order to protect "a lot of people's feelings".
