Simon Cowell Splits with Girlfriend

I'm kidding, but I can just imagine that's how Simon Cowell reacted to his recent breakup with longtime girlfriend Terri Seymour -- since she dumped him.

"Terri phoned Simon and finished it in September, about six weeks ago," said the American Idol judge's rep. "They are going to remain close friends. Simon thinks the world of Terri and that isn't going to change. He also understands her reason for ending it."

So, what exactly are the reasons? Well, Terri, 34, who's spent the last six years with Simon, 48, wants to start a family and, basically, Simon doesn't.

"In the past Terri has said that she wants kids but that just isn't Simon," added the rep. "Nobody else is involved, certainly not on Simon's side."

I actually kind of feel a little bad for Simon. Ah, I'm sure he'll find someone else soon -- I hear Paula Abdul is available.
