Si’ goes shirtless with baby son

By Sean Borg

Like father, like son… Who knew Simon Cowell could produce something so cute? His son, Eric, is now 7 months old – and the bigger he gets, the more he looks like his daddy!

simon-cowellThe former American Idol judge and creator of The X Factor franchise this week shared on Twitter a photo of himself appearing with his adorable baby boy.

The father and son duo are spending some quality time together holidaying on a luxury yacht. In the pics, the 54-year-old can be seen proudly holding his six-month-old son; both are shirtless as they rock their matching aviator sunglasses. “Taking after daddy,” Simon captioned the photo for his 10.2 million Twitter followers.

Also spotted in the pic: The man once dubbed “Mr. Nasty” is smiling. With a kid that cute, who wouldn’t?

Cowell’s girlfriend Lauren Silverman gave birth to Eric, the couple’s first child together, this past Valentine’s Day.

In March, Cowell said he did not rule out having more children, saying he was “born” to be a dad.

The reality star had shared on Twitter the first photos of Eric, then two days old, saying,“Now you can see how very handsome little Eric is.”

“Very handsome like his dad,” he added alongside another photo that he tweeted on May 5.

Hmm, love the pic Si’ but let’s hope little Eric keeps away from your high-waisted pants for a while!
