Simon Cowell is set to reunite with his "very special girl" Lauren Silverman for the first time since news of her pregnancy broke.On Wednesday, Lauren was pictured arriving at Nice airport, her burgeoning tummy on display in a tight black tank top teamed with fitted white jeans. It is thought that the New York socialite is around 12 weeks pregnant with Simon's first child.
According to reports, X Factor mogul Simon is set to return to the south of France on Wednesday evening to spend time with mum-of-one Lauren.Rather than return to his luxury slipstream yacht, moored nearby, the couple will hole up in a rented villa together. And judging by the amount of luggage Lauren arrived with, she will be staying for more than a couple of days. "At her stage of pregnancy, it's little wonder she may want to be on dry land instead of sea," a source told the Mirror.
Lauren's visit comes after her divorce from husband of ten years Andrew Silverman was settled in New York last week.
