Simon Cowell shows his softer side with son Eric and girlfriend Lauren Silverman at Winter Wonderland
The trio headed straight for the funfair at London's festive extravaganza
X Factor head honcho Simon Cowell showed his competitive spirit and fatherly side as he spent time with super-cute son Eric and girlfriend Lauren Silverman at the launch of London's Winter Wonderland.
Television's Mr Nasty was all smiles as the trio headed straight for the funfair at the festive extravaganza in Hyde Park.
Dad Simon, dressed in a chunky coat and green scarf, immediately challenged Lauren to a duel on the bumper cars.
The pair were in fits of giggles as they sat behind the wheel of different white vehicles and motored them around the circuit.
Lauren started out wearing a trendy bobble hat yet pulled it off as the race got serious.
After their in-car antics, the pair were seen cuddled up and reunited with their toddler Eric, on a rathermore relaxed ride in a fluorescent cart.
Eric, two, was a little mini-me of mum Lauren as he wore an identical woolly hat to wrap up from the cold.
The parents made sure he was safely sat in-between them as they introduced him to the fun of the fair on the slow ride.
Lauren, 39, was seen cheerfully clapping as the ride began before she discussed something in-depth with her other half.
The boys then went it alone as Simon took his firstborn on an elephant attraction.
Taking a night off from his X Factor duties, he wrapped a tender arm around the back of his son as the machine geared up before keeping him entertained throughout.
Then it was time to hit the stalls, with the little family heading to a darts game.
American Lauren, who looked trendy in an olive green coat, bent down to give Eric a cuddly toy panda which they looked to have won at the game.
They seemed full of festive spirit as they posed for pictures before they left.

All three were wrapped up against the cold, with Eva, 41, wearing a stylish black full length sleeveless jacket over a grey jumper, as well as a hat and fur trimmed gloves.
Mel, 42, chose a stylish dark grey winter coat which featured a waterfall neckline, while Brooklyn opted for a more sporty look with a patterned hoody and Adidas baseball cap.
After the women warmly greeted each other, the trio got their mobile phones out and started snapping some selfies, possibly to send to Victoria to give her FOMO.
