While Simon Cowell is often in the spotlight with his fiancée Lauren Silverman and their son Eric, he also has a large family, including five siblings. Among them are his brother Nicholas, a successful property developer, and half-brothers John, Tony, Michael, and half-sister June. Although Nicholas and Tony have public profiles, the others tend to stay out of the limelight.
Brother Nicholas
Simon and Nicholas, raised in Elstree, Hertfordshire, by their dancer mother Julie and music executive father Eric, have had their ups and downs. Nicholas, 63, is a property developer heading The Cowell Group, and he has two children with his wife Katie. The brothers have experienced tensions in their relationship but are reportedly reconnecting.
Half-Brothers John, Tony, and Michael
Simon’s half-brothers include John, Tony, and Michael. Tony, 73, works as an author and showbiz reporter and co-wrote Simon’s autobiography. He has battled bladder cancer, receiving support from Simon during his diagnosis. John is a businessman running Cowell Consulting, while Michael had a lengthy feud with Simon over a romantic interest, though they eventually reconciled.
Half-Sister June
June, Simon’s half-sister, has largely remained out of the public eye. She described Simon as family-oriented and fondly recalled their childhood. Now living in Spain, June has two daughters and continues to keep a low profile.
Simon’s siblings may not seek the limelight, but they each have their own unique stories and accomplishments.
