Simon Cowell Splits With Terri Seymour 11/01/08

Music mogul Simon Cowell has reportedly split from his long-term girlfriend, British model Terri Seymour. The couple has been dating for more than six years, but they are now said to have broken off their relationship after drifting apart over the last two months.

According to British newspaper the Daily Mirror, the beauty recently told friends, "We've split up. It's very sad but we decided to go our separate ways. It just wasn't working out between us. There's no one else involved and we want to remain friends."

The pair has made no secret of their differing views on marriage and children, with Cowell insisting that he will never settle down, while Seymour confessed her longing to start a family. The reports were further fuelled when Cowell turned up to the National TV Awards in London on Wednesday night (29Oct08) with another woman on his arm - his ex-fiancee and former pop protégée, Sinitta.

The two have remained close since their split, with Cowell bringing Sinitta on board to help him mentor his group of contestants on British reality show The X Factor.
