Simon Cowell will soon be jumping head-on into fatherhood, and some people might be wondering if the X Factor judge has what it takes to make a good dad. While enjoying a babymoon in Barbados with pregnant girlfriend Lauren Silverman, Simon was spotted chatting it up with an adorable baby boy, who somehow managed to get the stone faced Brit to smile.

Lauren Silverman is due to give birth to her and Simon Cowell’s baby within the next few weeks, and her large baby bump does absolutely nothing to hide that fact. Although she had it draped in a modest swimsuit cover-up, it was plain to see she’ll soon deliver. Silverman celebrated her baby shower earlier in December at Simon Cowell’s home back in L.A. Two of Cowell’s exes–Terri Seymour and Mezhgan Hussainy–were both in attendance.

The couple is expecting a baby boy, and shower guests arrived laden with all sorts of clothing, stuffed animals, books and baby gear and toys.

So what will Simon and Lauren name their little bundle of joy?

“I’m not going to say what it is yet, but I’m happy,” he told E! back in November. “You’ll have to wait and see!”

Fans will no doubt be watching and eagerly awaiting the announcement that Simon Cowell and Lauren Silverman’s baby has arrived. It will definitely be interesting to see what kind of father the TV producer is. Hopefully his interaction with that baby on the beach is a strong sign of what’s to come.
