Gossip from us weekly
Simon Cowell is speaking out for the first time about why he split with girlfriend of six years, Terri Seymour.
“She wants a different path in life, and I totally respect her for it,” Cowell tells Fox News. “We will be the best of mates, but I think in relationships, you have to be totally honest. I have always been and I know Terri knows that.
“I find women confusing, really,” Cowell went on. “When you hook up and date, you’re both honest about what you want. I have never ever said that I want children or marriage. I know some people find it hard to fathom, but it’s me, it’s who I am.”
He denies rumors that another woman was involved.
“There is no one new in my life. I can honestly say some of my best friends are girls, but we’re not dating, and that is that,” he says. “Forget any lurid tabloid headlines. Myself and Terri will remain firm friends. We’re grown ups.”
Cowell says he is still in love … with his job.
“Bottom line is I am married to my job,” says the American Idol judge. “When people moan about being a celebrity, I think ‘Oh please, sort yourself out – it’s the greatest job in the world.’
“I wake up daily thanking my lucky stars, but to throw marriage into that mix is not right,” Cowell continues. “I have seen too many celebrity marriages that on paper make a great mix, fall apart through ego and just plain celebrity madness.”"
This is a man with no B.S.
I’m not sure if it is good or bad the fact that he is not for any woman to own.
Telling this piece over dinner to Gordo, and he quoted:”Women marry men wishing they can change them but they don’t. Men marry women hoping that they don’t change but they do.”
But I do agree, women eventually want a marriage and a family. Some take a long time to realize.
And women do not change men. Some take a long time+ painful experience to realize too.
