Simon was reminded about the personnel move when taping the ‘Britain’s Got Talent’ semi-finals, getting booed by the audience while co-hist Dec Donnelly joked, “Can you understand my accent?”
“Simon feels guilty as hell about what has happened to Cheryl. He has admitted it was a cock-up but she won’t hear him out,” the insider said. “They used to be so close. She’d text him round the clock for advice. Now she can’t bring herself to speak to him. He feels like he’s lost a lover.”
