Simon Cowell Caught Cheating  7/27/06

American Idol and X Factor judge Simon Cowell has reportedly been cheating on his long-term partner Terri Seymour with a 21-year-old model.

A British newspaper today printed pictures of Jasmine Lennard - who appeared on UK TV reality show Make Me a Supermodel - leaving 46-year-old Cowell's London house after a late-night rendezvous, while Seymour was at the couple's home in Los Angeles.

The Daily Mirror alleges the pair have been dating in secret for six months, and Cowell even took Lennard and her mother Marilyn Galsworthy - a Bond girl in The Spy Who Loves Me - to the Royal Ascot horse racing event last month (JUN06).

A friend tells the newspaper, "They spend most of their time together in Simon's house when Terri is at their other home in Los Angeles. Sometimes they go out, but only with other friends so as not to arouse any suspicion."

Another adds, "Jasmine is absolutely besotted with him and thinks he feels the same."

Cowell's spokesperson says, "Simon has known Jasmine for some time. They had a meeting to discuss TV projects."
