Simon Cowell's longtime friend Sinitta is set to miss the music mogul's upcoming wedding to Lauren Silverman. Singer Sinitta, 58, was Simon's first signing as s record company executive back in 1986 and the pair had an on-off romance for 20 years after they first met in 1983.
And, while they remain good friends today, Sinitta will not be present when he says 'I do' to American socialite Lauren, 44 - because she will be on tour as Matron Mama Morton with the musical Chicago.
The star will be performing at the Grand Opera House in Belfast from June 6 to 11, with Simon rumoured to have planned his nuptials for next month.
She told the Mirror: 'I'll send him the lucky Irish leaf – I'll send him a shamrock from Louis (Walsh). ' 'The tour has been going since September, and I was supposed to do the first three months, but I ended up staying for six because they invited me to because it went really well. 'And then I left in January and the tour continued and now I'm just coming back for Belfast, Plymouth and Llandudno, so I will finish the last week of the tour as well, which is great fun, so I'm starting and finishing it!' Simon proposed to girlfriend Lauren on Christmas Eve in Barbados.
