Amanda Holden has given Simon Cowell a joke gift after his horror bike crash. The media mogul, 62, was rushed to hospital this week after another terrifying e-bike accident – his second in 18 months. Amanda, 50, told her Heart Breakfast radio listeners she was going to buy Simon a pair of stabilisers to stop him doing anymore damage – and now she has, reports the Mirror.
Sharing a pic of the former X Factor judge opening the red training wheels, Amanda said: “So I bought @simoncowell some stabilisers,” followed by laughing face emoji. She added: “He loved them.” Amanda caught up with Simon to celebrate his son Eric’s birthday and shared a snap on her Instagram Stories with the star’s fiance Lauren Silverman.
Amanda’s co-host Ashley Roberts, 40, said on the breakfast show: “We spoke about the fact that Simon Cowell had another accident on his bike didn’t we…now he said he’s not going to get on bikes ever again, which I think is a smart thing to do.” However she then joked: “Unless he gets a little tricycle with a bell, where he can ring and warn people.”
Speaking for the first time after his accident, Simon told the MailOnline on Wednesday: “I’m OK. I’m feeling much better thank you. It happened just round the corner. I’m a bit of a nutter. I’ll definitely wear a helmet next time.”

A workman who had been renovating a property near where the incident happened told the publication: “He nearly bumped into me the other day. You often see him racing about on his bike although I must admit I haven’t seen him on it for a few days. Now I know why.”
The multimillionaire had to be helped by three onlookers who stopped the traffic while an ambulance was called to the scene. It was discovered that Simon suffered a fractured arm after skidding at 20mph and flying over his handlebars into the middle of the road.

Hello, I am a news reporter for MyLondon. I cover stories across the capital every day.
I qualified as a journalist last year and studied English and History at university, with a special interest in medieval London.
I love London because you’ve never seen it all. Also – all the food.
Some recent stories I am most proud of are this report on the killing of a restaurant owner in Elephant and Castle, this weird situation a Kings College student found herself in, and my review of eating a pig’s ear salad in Bloomsbury.
