Simon Cowell and Lauren Silverman
Simon Cowell's girlfriend Lauren Silverman is due to give birth to their first son in New York City on February 28 so her mother can help her to care for the newborn.
The 'X Factor' boss and Lauren Silverman have reportedly booked a delivery room in one of the most exclusive hospitals on the east coast of the U.S., so her mother, Carole Sandland, who lives in Florida, can be on standby and fly up to help her care for her first child with the British star.
A source told the MailOnline website that Lauren's mother will help her adjust to the newborn, as Simon, 54, will need to continue to travel to Los Angles and London regularly for work.
The decision to have their baby in NYC isn't surprising since Lauren's eight-year-old son, Adam, who she shares custody of with her ex-husband, Andrew Silverman, who she divorced in August, attends school in the city.
Simon previously admitted he hoped that his child would be born in London.
He said: "Obviously, I would have to make sure the baby has an English accent. I said to Lauren, 'What if I just play me on tape while the baby is sleeping so the baby can hear me and have a British accent and his first words will be, 'You're absolutely useless!'"
