Terri is feeling the Simon ex-factor
Updated 13:35pm on 3 Nov 2008Terri Seymour shows Simon Cowell that it is time to wake up and smell the coffee over their failed romance. The model was snapped with a huge cup of coffee near her Los Angeles home at the weekend, just a day after admitting she had split up with the pop mogul and X Factor judge. But the strain was clearly showing on the 34-year-old's face. She said their relationship broke down over Simon's refusal to commit to her and start a family.
Single: Terri Seymour at the weekend
Simon, 49, bought her a £2.5 million home in LA, which is said to have been a "thank you" present for their six years together. Terri is reported to have told friends that it was her decision to end their relationship. Hmmm! It's usually Simon's job to wield the axe.

I read an interview with Simon about 2 years ago during which he said that he didn't want children, so I don't suppose that he ever misled Terri, given that he was happy to be candid with a journalist.
She was probably waiting in vain for him to change his mind and realised when she hit her mid-30s that she needed to find someone who wanted kids without further delay.
She could have "accidentally" conceived with Simon in order to facilitate her dream of parenthood and I think that it's to her credit that she didn't.

Having watched Simon and his ex-girlfriend on the TV in a documentary Im amazed they stayed together this long. She has nothing to say, giggles at everything he has to say whether its funny or not. He even said on TV - oh we dont really have much to talk about - she giggled at that too. She has no conversation whatsoever - no wonder Simon does not want children with her.

Terri Seymour doesn't want to be a professional beard/mug any longer. But why endure 6 years of it? Surely nothing to do with Simon's immense personal wealth...

Its amazing how some women decide to humiliate themselves like this and devalue themselves. Simon Cowell made it clear on several ocassions that he was not ready to commit or have kids. He doenst want the complications of marriage prenups, acrimony,child support and every complicated issue that comes with something that is meant to be a loving relationship. He is a businessmn like George Clooney. Teri knew this and still stayed. Why blame the guy when the woman settled for less......If Simon were in love with her, the world will know.
This is like Puff Daddy nad his model girlfriend. She couldnt get him to commit. Having kids didnt do it. Lick your wounds girlfriend...and move on!!! You sold yourself for 2.5mil quid....too cheap in my opinion!

Do you think the effeminate Simon who surrounds himself with previous lovers and girls young enough to be his daugher will have the courage to come out now????
Cant quite understand how this Terri person was comfortable with being humiliated in this way,
Its not so much of 'there were 3 of us in this relationship' as 'there are countless in this relationship'!! But I see a £2.5M 'soother' will calm her humiliatiation somewhat!!
I don't know who he thinks he is kidding???? but it ain't me!!
