Simon Cowell's relationship with Lauren Silverman was a hot topic for tabloids, seeing as the two had an affair while Lauren was still married. She now gives a peek into the moment she learned she was pregnant during one of the "hardest times" and the divorce that followed.
Appearing as a guest on the Happy Mum podcast, the entrepreneur admits that learning she was pregnant with her son Erik marked the end of her marriage to real estate developer Andrew Silverman. The two already shared a son, Adam, when Lauren got pregnant with Cowell's child during the affair.
"There's so many emotions that went with that, because it was the end of my marriage, obviously," she explained. "Looking back on that time, it was one of the hardest times of my life because I'm so— I don’t want to say regretful, because I don’t regret anything… Do I wish it had happened a different way and that I could go back and change certain things? Of course I do."
She adds that everything "happens for a reason," but admits she would go back and "take away the hurt" that she caused to her ex-husband and the people around them. Regardless of the public drama that occurred at the time, she was ready to welcome her son into the world.
"It was just one of those moments where I knew it was right and that was what I wanted and that Simon was the person I wanted to spend my life with," she shared. "And so, however we got there and however it happened, I just believed that it was meant to be."
Cowell and Lauren had been known acquaintances through similar social circles when rumors circulated of them being together in 2012. While Lauren was still married, Simon's reps denied the speculations. Their relationship became public when news of the pregnancy was announced, with Silverman filing for divorce and citing adultery as the reason.

With Cowell being a celebrity, the news of the affair landed her on the pages of every magazine. It's been years since the divorce, with Lauren now proud of the relationship she's been able to build with her ex-husband for the sake of their son.
When it comes to reflecting on what happened, Lauren says she's been working on herself and understands people's opinions at the time. "So I was just like, 'It's fine, it's cool, I deserve it.' But now as I've gotten all these years in, I feel for me that I've done the work on myself, I have forgiven myself, I have done whatever I need to do to make peace with the situation," she said.
Cowell proposed to Lauren on Christmas Eve 2021 while on a family vacation. She even legally changed her name to the America's Got Talent host's ahead of their nuptials. Silverman has also moved on and remarried.
