Louis Walsh has revealed that fatherhood has changed Simon Cowell.
The 55-year-old music mogul welcomed his first child, Eric, in February 2014 – which has brought out his softer side.
The X Factor judge, who is famously known for being quite harsh on his talent shows, appears to have changed his tune ever since becoming a father, after his girlfriend Lauren Silverman gave birth to baby Eric.

Now, Simon’s fellow X Factor judge and long-time pal Louis Walsh has admitted that he’s definitely changed his cruel ways – despite being so busy.
“I suppose it has a little bit, he seems really happy and he seems like he’s in a really good place, even though he’s doing like three TV shows.
“He’s in America at the moment doing America’s Got Talent, but he seems in a good place though.
“I think Eric definitely helped, and Lauren has definitely had a good influence on him. She’s a really nice woman,” he added.
