Simon Cowell has missed the last three weeks of America’s Got Talent because he underwent back surgery related to his 2020 electric bike accident.
Kenan Thompson filled in the first week. Heidi Klum sat in his seat the following week. And no one stepped in for him last week.
This week is the finale. So we have been wondering if Cowell will be well enough to make an appearance. Sadly, it looks like he will not make it.
According to The Sun, the 66-year-old judge will be missing Britain’s Got Talent’s auditions, which are scheduled to be filmed in October, because he needs more time to recover.
A source told the paper: “Simon is of course gutted to be missing the auditions, but it’s important that he rests up now so he can make a full recovery.
“It was a routine op that went well, and he knows the team will find a fun guest judge to spice up filming and keep the audience on their toes.”
So will we see Simon? We will find out Tuesday night during the first night of the two-night finale.
