Lauren Silverman (pictured left), girlfriend of music mogul Simon Cowell, has revealed that he is a great dad to their baby son, Eric, and she never doubted his ability to be a fantastic father. 

During an interview with Britain's Star magazine, Silverman admitted that Cowell is a fantastic father who has fallen into the parental role so naturally: "I think he's absolutely adorable! He does look a lot like his dad. He looks nothing like me."

"I'm not surprised, I knew he would be an amazing father. He's an amazing guy with a good heart. Sometimes when you get in a situation, you rise to the occasion and he really has. Simon's an amazing dad. It's so cute when I see them together. I just love it."

Silverman, who recently divorced her millionaire husband Andrew Silverman, added that she expects to marry Cowell in the future although it won't be soon: "Of course we will get married eventually, but not yet."
