Shirtless Simon Cowell plays with monkeys in Barbados

They are making the most of the sun during their annual trip to Barbados.

And Simon Cowell, 58, and his bikini-clad girlfriend Lauren Silverman, 40, couldn’t have looked more smitten with each other as they enjoyed yet another day in the sunshine.

However, this wasn’t before the shirtless music mogul – who is joined on the holiday with son Eric, three, stepson Adam, 11, and Lauren’s mother Carole Davis, 59, won the approval of an adorable monkey.

After calling it a wrap on this year’s X Factor, Simon looked in his element as he went shirtless in his blue swim shorts to enjoy the sunshine. 

Lauren looked every inch the beach babe in her navy blue bikini, which boasted embellished detailing. 

The mother-of-two covered up slightly with a semi-sheer halterneck kaftan which featured a sexy, thigh-high split – which showcased her enviably toned pins and stomach while catching the wind. 

With her locks swept back into a chic ponytail, Lauren looked undeniably glamorous as she toted her belongings in a white Chanel handbag.

Joining the pair on the trip was Lauren’s mother Carole, who at 59 is only a year older than Simon.

Generous Simon has invited a huge crowd of friends and family, to his favourite spot in Barbados for the extended break, with the group celebrating Christmas and New Year’s together.

In 2013, it was revealed Simon had been in a relationship with his then-best friend Andrew Silverman’s wife Lauren, after pictures emerged of them kissing on a yacht. 

The pair then welcomed their son – a half-sibling for Lauren’s eldest son Adam from her previous marriage – in February 2014, and named him after Simon’s late father, who died in 1999.

Simon has displayed his visibly slimmer frame during the sun-soaked outing, after vowing to overhaul his lifestyle and go on a health kick.

He feared he had ‘broken his neck’ after falling down the stairs at his London home at the end of October due to low blood pressure.

And after vowing to take ‘good care of himself’ he appeared to be sticking to his word and has ditched vodka from his diet, as well as making a conscious effort to severely cut down on the amount of cigarettes he smokes per day.
