Mail Online seem to over-moderate most of their "articles" now and quite often only a handful of comments get through or comments are switched off altogether. It's happening so much it's one ot the reasons I've dived into posting on here. My comments always follow the MO guidelines yet so many of them fail to make it beyond the mods I've given up.

not-a-medical-Dr Jessica Taylor monetising the Russell Brand and David Walliams news is disgusting. She forced her vulnerable employees to sign an NDA to stop them whistle blowing. She threatened survivors of sexual abuse to sue them for “every single one of their assets” if they spoke up. She is one of the most dangerous people in the VAWG sector and does so much harm to women and girls.

I take the comment about DM moderating pretty much all comments these days; so perhaps they aren't moderating the Simon Cowell articles because of an injunction and instead just because that's their policy now.
However, objectively, Simon does not look well. There are a disproportionate amount of articles over the past 12 months or so showing him out and about looking unwell or pointing out that another string to his business is not proceeding/ winding down (pulling out of his new show last minute; his book not coming out; winding down SYCO Entertainment; he's sold/ wound down the music arm of SYCO fairly recently also).
Simon says his priorities have changed to his family; but I also know that at 60 years old, one's priorities don't just magically transform unless there is something that forces their priorities to change (such as illness). We all know Simon's priority until now has been his work. He has never prioritised his love life. That's clear. I can see he's always adored his son and it's clear him coming into the world changed Simon somewhat.
If objectively he doesn't look well, that doesn't mean he can't ride an electric bike round the block (he may be doing it for health reasons). He may appear at BGT auditions but I doubt it. I wouldn't be surprised if all these stories in the past week have been carefully placed in the press so that when he announces he won't appear on screen at BGT because he 'wants to focus on his weddding/ family life', people won't be so surprised. We know from the Max Clifford days that Simon is no stranger to paying someone to cover up swathes of their personal life from meeting the newspapers. As I've said before, I don't see Simon finding it difficult to obtain an injunction stop certain things getting out in the press, given the age of his son.
I remember an article from last spring - https://www.archive.is/oldest/https...Simon-Cowell-best-chat-oh-blistered-feet.html - I always thought it strange.

Do people genuinely think he's sick? Maybe he just can't be arsed to be in public much any longer. He's getting on and earned his riches. Maybe he likes the low-key, chilled out life he's living now, only choosing very specific projects to pursue.
I really hope that's the case.
The comment about Simon first retreating after the Max Clifford scandal and Clifford's eventual death is interesting. I wonder if Simon just couldn't cope without his "magic man" to control his public image? Something about Simon has always seemed as fake as it gets to me, not least his "relationship" with Lauren. I do not believe for a moment Simon actually fathered little Eric, at least not in the traditonal way.
Wonder if Simon lays low because he just doesn't want to risk the press turning on him without that ever so slick PR behind him? The control Clifford had over the UK press was absolutely insane after all.

Well he’s shown up for the auditions

He looks okay??!! I think talk of his demise has been a bit premature. He may well have an illness but it looks managed.
He looks ok here.If he had a terminal illness there's no way he'd be doing BGT surely?.
That photo is so wierd - they are such odd sizes compared to each other. Alicia's head looks absolutely tiny. Literally half the size of Ant and Dec's.
Do you mean Alesha? Easily mix-up-able!
I think she does actually have quite a small head
That's typical on here though
He looks ok for a man in his 60s maybe he has had an illness like cancer but has been treated and is in recovery.
Perhaps he orchestrated all this talk of how he was allegedly dying to get publicity. He is a master media manipulator, after all.
Really? I think he looks terrible.
He is very skinny but he went on that plant based diet a few years ago and lost lots of weight.
