An injured Simon Cowell wore a yellow cast as he stepped out with his fiancé Lauren Silverman in west London on Friday, following his dash to hospital last week.

Simon narrowly avoided serious injury during his recent ‘horror’ e-bike accident when he wasn’t wearing a helmet – marking his second biking accident.

Completing his look with a pair of black trainers, the Britain’s Got Talent judge wore his short grey hair in a swept-back middle parting.
Meanwhile, his socialite wife-to-be put on an ever-chic display in a navy wool coat which she layered beneath an orange polo neck sweater.
Donning a pair of faded jeans, she threw a charcoal handbag over her shoulder and strutted her way through the capital in black leather shoes.

The Florida-native completed her look with an oversized pair of shades while her gorgeous chocolate locks cascaded over her shoulders in waves.
On Wednesday, Simon told MailOnline he was ‘a bit of a nutter’ having narrowly avoided serious injury during the crash, when he wasn’t wearing a helmet.
Cowell was rushed to hospital near his west London home on Thursday with suspected concussion, facial cuts and a broken arm after he slammed into the road at 20mph while not wearing a helmet.
The ‘blood-soaked’ tycoon had been riding a Das Spitzing Evolution S-Pedelec bike, which has a basic price of €9499 (£7921) and has top speeds of 27mph.
Simon said he is ‘feeling better’ since the crash, adding: ‘I’m OK. I’m feeling much better thank you. It happened just round the corner.’
Better safe than sorry: Simon (pictured riding his bike last month) has since promised to stay away from bikes for good after the ‘horror’ crash
After being told that locals had seen him whizzing around the local streets at high speed on a number of occasions before the crash, he admitted: ‘I’m a bit of a nutter. I’ll definitely wear a helmet next time.’
One workman, who has been renovating a property nearby, said: ‘He nearly bumped into me the other day. You often see him racing about on his bike although I must admit I haven’t seen him on it for a few days. Now I know why.
‘He dashes round the corner without stopping and he’s never wearing a helmet. The roads can get very busy round here so he’s taking a bit of a chance.
‘You’d have thought he would have learned his lesson after what happened before.’
Meanwhile, a source told MailOnline: ‘Simon has been warned many times to wear a helmet but he doesn’t always take it on board.
‘When he cycles in LA he rarely wears one but the cycling lanes are far better and safer, compared to London. So he’s so accustomed to not wearing a helmet, which is so dangerous and he was lucky to come away with minor injuries from his latest crash.
‘His team are now hoping this is the wake up call he needed. Thankfully he always ensures son Eric wears a helmet while he’s cycling.’
Simon is nursing a broken arm as a result of the accident, his second involving a bicycle having previously injured his back following a similar fall in Malibu two years ago.
Friends have since claimed he is ready to give up cycling despite being an enthusiastic bike rider after narrowly avoiding serious injury during the incident last Thursday.
A source told MailOnline: ‘Simon has vowed not to go on a bike again. It was a horror show but fortunately it looked worse than it actually is.’
Wedding bells: As part of his life overhaul, Simon proposed to his long-term girlfriend Lauren Silverman, 44, on Christmas Eve in Barbados (pictured in 2021)
