The representative shared: “Simon was unable to attend filming today as he was isolating at home after testing positive for Covid-19.”

Unfortunately, this update did not include how Simon was fairing after contracting the virus. The update, however, did give fans of the music mogul some reassurances that he was at least well enough to be at home isolating versus being in a hospital.

He feels like a ‘bit of a nutter’

According to Daily Mail, Simon Cowell admitted he felt like a “bit of a nutter” after crashing his e-bike not too long ago. The music mogul admitted that wrecking his e-bike a second time was not enough to convince him to get rid of the bike. He, however, did plan to be a little more cautious and wear a helmet while he was riding it.

Presently, there isn’t much information available on when Simon Cowell tested positive for COVID-19. Or, how long it will be before he can return to the BGT judge panel. For the most part, however, his fans are just relieved it sounds like he’s fairing alright despite having COVID.
