Simon Cowell Recovering from Back Surgery
Simon Cowell is recuperating from a five-hour surgery following an electric bike accident Saturday that left his back broken!
“Simon had surgery overnight and is doing okay this morning. It was a five-hour surgery and he has had to have a number of fusions and metal rods put into his back”. “He landed on his back when he fell from the bike. The injuries are bad but he’s also been told he was lucky.” said a reliable source
The incident occurred when America’s Got Talent judge and executive producer was testing his new electric bike in the courtyard of his Malibu, Calif. home. He was immediately taken to the hospital following the fall.
The accident comes just days before Cowell is scheduled to shoot America’s Got Talent‘s first live show, following a months-long production shutdown due to COVID-19. (UPDATE: Cowell will skip the live shows.) The NBC reality competition series resumed production on its current 15th season in late June.
