Simon Cowell bathes with his dogs
Simon Cowell bathes with his dogs.
The 56-year-old music mogul admitted he is so obsessed with his Yorkies – Freddie, Squiddly and Diddly – that he lets them jump in the bath with him.
He told Us Weekly: "I love my dogs so much. I take them on holidays, I let them sleep in the bed and sometimes one gets in the bath with me.
"I love taking baths. My ideal day is probably being on holiday: getting up late, jet-skiing, swimming, afternoon tea, a nap, a bath, go out for dinner, get drunk – and start all over again!"
Simon also revealed that he is utterly besotted with his two-year-old son Eric and often lets him stay up late watching cartoons.
He said: "Eric has me wrapped around his little finger. I let him stay up late to watch cartoons.
"I have banned ‘Dora the Explorer’. I told Eric that Dora has left to go on a permanent holiday. Her voice is annoying! Now we watch ‘Peppa Pig’."
Simon recently revealed that he is planning to write a children’s book, inspired by Eric – whose mother is Lauren Silverman.
He said: "I have thought about it, and now I think I’ll do it.
"It will be about animals… I’ve had to read a lot of these children’s books and they’re quite boring, I think I could do it better.
"I’m going to make a children’s TV show as well, a music show for kids."
Simon admitted Eric will feature in the book, while there will also be a character based on himself.
He admitted: "Obviously sort of a hero figure."
