Simon Cowell has spoken out after sustaining another serious injury in his second e-bike accident.
Earlier this week, The Sun reported that the music mogul was “lucky to be alive” after flying over the handlebars of his bike and landing in the middle over the road.
The 62-year-old, who was not wearing a helmet at the time, was left with a broken arm and blood pouring down his face.
Speaking out about the incident for the first time, Simon told the MailOnline: “I’m OK. I’m feeling much better thank you. It happened just round the corner.”
“I’m a bit of a nutter. I’ll definitely wear a helmet next time,” he added.
This is the second time Simon has been hospitalised due to his electric bike, as he also broke his back after falling off it in August 2020.
The 62-year-old was almost paralysed, and required a six hour operation on his back.
Taking to Twitter at the time, the X Factor boss wrote: “Some good advice… If you buy an electric trail bike, read the manual before you ride it for the first time.”
“I have broken part of my back. Thank you to everyone for your kind messages. And a massive thank you to all the nurses and doctors. Some of the nicest people I have ever met. Stay safe everyone Simon.”
Some good advice…
