Latest reports in claim Simon Cowell has popped the question to new love Mezghan Husseiny
Simon Cowell must be eating his words.
Despite famously insisting that he'll never get married, latest reports claim the X Factor mogul has popped the question to new love Mezghan Husseiny.
The couple, who have been dating six months, met on the set of American Idol, where Mezghan worked as a make-up artist.
Simon, 50, is said to be so besotted with the 36-year-old, known as Mish, that he has already presented her with a diamond ring.
According to sources, the loved-up star surprised her during an intimate Valentine's dinner with his ex-flame Jackie St Claire and her husband, Carl Michaelson, at his favourite restaurant, Mr Chow in Knightsbridge.
After making a special announcement, Simon pulled out the sparkler and placed it on Mezghan's finger.

A source told the Mirror: 'Simon may come across as Mr Nasty on screen but he's a big softie at heart. He wanted to do something unexpected and out of character on Valentine's Day and decided to splash out on a ring. Mish was speechless and gave him a huge kiss. He is besotted with her, and she him.'
Simon's alleged romantic offering comes just two years after he claimed he would never marry and more than a year since he split from girlfriend Terri Seymour.
