It comes after Lizzie recently told OK! that her pal Simon Cowell’s son Eric, seven, has changed his views on the idea of marriage.

Simon, 62, is set to marry his long-term partner Lauren Silverman, 44, after popping the question while on holiday in Barbados.

“Fatherhood has definitely given Simon a different outlook on life and marriage. He used to always be about work, and now his priorities have changed,” Lizzie told us.

She continued: “Eric is Simon’s world and he absolutely adores him. Simon can see what an amazing mum and partner Lauren is. We’re all so happy for them. It’s wonderful for all of the family, and for little Eric, too.”

Lizzie added: “I think being married completes the family. I’m absolutely thrilled for them.”
