Find out what little Eric Cowell will be getting for Christmas!


November 29, 2016

With this year's series of X Factor almost coming to an end, Simon Cowell has been busy getting ready for Christmas. During a recent chat with HELLO! Magazine, the music mogul revealed that he will be pulling out all the stops to make this year's festive period super special for his loved ones.

Spilling all the details on what his two-year-old son Eric will receive, the 57-year-old said: "Eric will be getting lots of toys. Peppa Pig is his favourite and he likes all the Disney stuff as well, so I'm sure that will feature from Father Christmas."

Simon, who often jets off to sun-soaked Barbados for Christmas and New Years with girlfriend Lauren Silverman and their child, will no doubt be looking forward to putting his feet up after X Factor has finished filming. "The X Factor is going brilliantly and we are just three weeks away from the final," he explained. "I have no idea who will win it this year… They're telling me it's the most open show we've ever had." The star later mused: "Whoever wins, wins. I will be happy with whoever the public picks."

This week's show, the semi-finals round, will see the final four sing two songs, which will include a Christmas themed number. Emily Middlemas is the only contestant remaining in Simon's category.

Sunday night saw controversial act Honey G leave the competition. She immediately revealed her hopes to becoming a Syco artist. When quizzed if he would sign her up, Simon revealed he "doesn't know". On the Xtra Factor show, he teased: "We don't make any decisions until after the show. Right now we have to sort out the winner."
