Simon Cowell has admitted that he is 'not brilliant with babies'
Cowell is set to become a first time father with his girlfriend Lauren Silverman; the couple are expecting a baby boy
And while he says he never knows what to do with babies, he thinks he will be able to give his son some good advice.
Speaking to Parade magazine Cowell said: "I'm not brilliant with babies. I never know what to do. But once he's older I think I'll be a good dad in terms of advice.
"And then I'll get to do all the things I want to do, like go to Disneyland or Universal Studios, teach him how to drive - I love all that."
While this will be the first child for Cowell, it will be the second for Silverman as she has a son with her ex-husband Andrew Silverman.
And Cowell went on to say that he is hoping to pass his love of music on to his son - revealing that his mother played Frank Sinatra to him when he was a child.
"He'll listen to whatever I listen to and make his own choices. It's funny ... my mum played Frank Sinatra when I was a kid, and because he was her choice, I used to hate it, but I love Sinatra now.
"He always looked like he was having fun and he didn't conform. That's probably why I've got pictures of him all over my house!"
