Simon Cowell is Engaged

Here’s a shocker: Simon Cowell is engaged. The American Idol judge, 50, is engaged to makeup artist Mezhgan Hussainy after denying the rumor for weeks. Multiple insiders confirmed the engagement to Usmagazine, and Hussainy confirmed the news herself early on Friday. The couple started dating last October around Cowell’s 50^th birthday, where she was his date for his birthday party in London. I am just so happy this is finally confirmed after all the denying, even though she was wearing what appears to be an engagement ring and he was calling her The One in interviews. Hello obvious.
