Cundy said that Simon was still lucky, and the accident could have been a lot worse. The doctors say it could have been a very different story, and Simon could be in a wheelchair, as per Cundy.

"Simon Cowell is a fortunate man but he will be ok. He's not great with pain, I've seen him even just with a cold." Lizzie said. She also added that Lauren was shocked about what happened and only waited outside while Cowell was in his operation.
