Simon Cowell has admitted he is a more content father now

We just love this softer side of Simon.

As we all know Simon Cowell became father to baby Eric with Lauren Silverman in February this year and it seems to have brought out the softer side of the famously cruel X Factor judge.

“If you’d seen me 18 months ago and said ’Simon, back at home now you’ve got two dogs and a six-month-old baby,’ I’d go ’Yeah, right!’ It was never going to happen, but it did. And I’m enjoying my life now,” he told Radio Times magazine.
