Simon Cowell is a surprisingly honest person, believe it or not.
He may seem hard on the outside, but inside he’s a gooey pile of baby love!
The first-time papa is absolutely smitten with his 8-month-old son Eric — even if he isn’t very ‘hands-on!’
When talking about caring for the son he shares with girlfriend Lauren Silverman, he said:
“I’m going to be honest ├óΓé¼ΓÇ£ I’m not exactly a hands-on dad. I want to fast forward a few years so I can take him go-karting and then introduce him to women. I’m probably in a far better position to be a father now than I would have been 10 years ago. That’s the way I’d look at it. And at the end of the day we have really great nannies that are bloody amazing, so I don’t have to worry.”
Wow, that’s super honest.
He clearly loves his baby, and loves being a dad to little Eric but when it comes to changing dirty diapers?

He’s got “the help” for that, it seems.
As long as it doesn’t all fall to Lauren, we guess we’re okay with that!
