Talent show judge Simon Cowell has fans surprised after sharing a rare new photo of his 10-year-old son Eric to his Instagram page.
The America’s Got Talent panelist and his now-fiancée Lauren Silverman welcomed Eric in 2014. He was named after his late grandfather.
‘The perfect day!’
While busy working on the new series of America’s Got Talent, Simon appears to be spending time with his son Eric.
Yesterday (February 14), he shared a snapshot of the pair enjoying time together on his 10th birthday. Captured sitting on an outdoor sofa, they looked to be in the company of their dog.
“The perfect day! #agt,” Simon captioned the pic.
