Simon Cowell appears to be in rude health as the Britain’s Got Talent creator has been spotted zooming about on his electric bike on the streets of London.
The 65-year-old broke his back and underwent major surgery in 2020 after falling off his e-bike on the grounds of his Miami home, but that doesn’t appear to have deterred the music mogul.
Simon looked comfortable and relaxed as he rode the bike, estimated to be worth around £5,000, down a leafy road. The Syco boss wore a black puffer coat with black gloves and jeans.
Keeping the ensemble casual, he added white trainers and aviator shades to polish the look off.
The former X Factor judge was riding on the grounds of his home in Miami, Florida, on 8 August 2020 when he fell and broke his back in a life-changing and frightening injury.

At the time, his spokesperson said in a statement: “Simon had a fall from his bike on Saturday afternoon whilst testing his new electric bike in the courtyard at his house in Malibu with his family. He hurt his back and was taken to the hospital.
“He’s doing fine, he’s under observation and is in the best possible hands. Simon has broken his back and will be having surgery this evening.”
After undergoing surgery, Simon spent months recuperating at his $24 million mansion in Miami where he and his fiancée Lauren Silverman and their ten-year-old son, Eric, often spend time after purchasing the sprawling property in 2017.
The father-of-one broke his arm and three vertebrae in the accident and had a steel rod inserted in his back. Two weeks after his fall, he proved he was making a speedy recovery when he was spotted taking his first steps out following the incident.
