"She's around 10 weeks along," the insider dished to the mag, however, there is a little more to the story than that.
The 36-year-old brunette is still married to one of Cowell's close pals, Andrew Silverman, who is a real estate mogul in New York City.
"Lauren and Andrew have been unhappy in their marriage for some time, and their divorce has been in the works for a while," a source told Us of the estranged spouses.

"As their marriage deteriorated, she and Simon became close."

Silverman and Cowell were photographed on several different occasions soaking up the sun on the music mogul's yacht — but her husband, who she allegedly plans to leave to be with the father of her child, was only a few feet away as he was on board during these luxurious vacations.
Cowell certainly appears to have a type as he has a bevy of brown-haired beauties as ex-girlfriends.

Cowell's last public relationship was with TV personality Carmen Electra, the couple opened up about their union in December 2012 but shortly after Cowell confirmed their split in February 2013.
"I'm now a single man. We spent time together and she is so much fun," he told the Sunday People at the time.

Prior to Electra, 40, he was engaged to makeup artist Hussainy before news first broke in September 2011 that the pair had called off their 18-month engagement.
Cowell was all smiles when photographed leaving St.Martin's Theatre with Silverman in late March after watching the longest running show in the world in London.
Despite having many serious girlfriends, entering parenthood with any of his past loves is something Cowell has said he was not exactly cut out for.
"God, no. I couldn't have children. If I had them here drawing on the walls I'd go nuts," he said in an interview in 2009.
Simon Cowell hangs out on his super yacht with ex-girlfriend Sinitta, and Andrew Silverman and Lauren Silverman in St. Tropez, France, in early August 2011.
"With kids, you've got a routine you can't escape from. You've got to be up at a certain time. Got to listen. When all you want to do is sit in a corner thinking."
As years have passed it appeared the outspoken Cowell had softened up a bit on the idea of having kids.
"Well ... yes," he said when asked by AOL in March 2012 if he'd had a change of heart on the topic.
"And, no. I do really, really like kids, because I can talk to them and listen to them. The problem has always been how much time you need to devote to bringing up kids. I've always dedicated all my life to work, and at 52, I've probably missed the opportunity."
