Simon Cowell is known for being the harsh, brutally honest, and even sometimes kind of mean judge on TV talent competitions. The producer, media company owner, and creator of popular shows such as The X Factor and America’s Got Talent has certainly done well for himself over his career. All of this in spite of his tough-as-nails TV persona. Now a doting father, Simon Cowell has said that none of his $600 million net worth will go to his son, Eric. He plans on donating all of it to charity.
Simon Cowell Says He Won’t Be Leaving Any Of His Fortune To His Son
Simon Cowell is an extremely successful entertainment business owner, producer, and TV personality as the judge of reality talent competitions in both the UK and the United States. Now, however, he can add another role to his resume: He is a father. Cowell became a father in 2014, a moment that he said changed him as a person. Before the birth of his son, Eric, however, he said in an interview that none of his now $600 million net worth would be passed along to his son. He said that he doesn’t believe in passing fortunes down to the next generation. (1)
