Simon Cowell is ‘doing really well’ just days after surgery for broken back

Terri also said Simon will not be back for the start of his show America’s Got Talent on Tuesday, but added that he’s keen to return soon.

She said: ‘You never rule anything out with Simon. Recovery is going to be a long road ahead. He’s so determined. He’s so upset to miss these live shows. It’s his baby — of course he wants to be there. Let’s just wait and see.’ 

While a source told The Mirror that although nothing is certain yet, Simon is hoping ‘to attend both the AGT final on September 23 and the BGT live final in the UK in October.’

The added: ‘The semi finals of Britain’s Got Talent clash with AGT filming so he was never going to be able to return to the UK for those shows in the coming weeks, but we are still looking at whether he can appear remotely.’ 

MailOnline has contacted Simon’s representatives for a comment. 

Simon broke his back when his powerful new $21,500 Swind EB-01 electric bike ‘flew up in the air and did an accidental wheelie’ after he tired to change gears.  

The music boss is thought to have been ‘surprised by the power’ of the bike and knew immediately that he ‘was in trouble’.  

On Sunday night, Simon tweeted: ‘Some good advice… If you buy an electric trail bike, read the manual before you ride it for the first time.

He went on: ‘I have broken part of my back. Thank you to everyone for your kind messages.’

Hen then added in a second tweet: ‘And a massive thank you to all the nurses and doctors. Some of the nicest people I have ever met. Stay safe everyone Simon.’
