Simon Cowell’s mum Julie has said she would love to see her son reunite with ex-girlfriend Terri Seymour.

Julie, 84, admitted she was a fan of Terri, 35, whom Simon, 50, split with last year after dating for six years.

Julie admitted that Terri is her favourite out of her son’s ex-girlfriends: “Top of the class is Terri. She is down-to-earth and a lovely person.

“Terri loved Simon purely for the person he is, unlike some of the others. She and Simon still speak every day and Terri calls me every 10 days to say hello.”

Asked if she would like to see them get back together, she said: “Yes! I wasn’t well a few weeks ago and Simon told Terri, who immediately called to see if there was anything she could do.

“She was my favourite, but sadly, Simon is married to his work!”
