ACCIDENT prone Simon Cowell has vowed to carry on cycling – but only after promising fiancée Lauren Silverman he will now wear a helmet.
The X Factor star refuses to sell his treasured E bikes, but has pledged to purchase a hard hat.
It comes after The Sun revealed he'd fallen from his bike for the second time last week and fractured an arm – 18 months after breaking his back falling from a different bicycle.
A source said: "Simon is as stubborn as a mule. He won't give up his precious E bikes for love nor money.
"He actually had his bike accident when Lauren was in New York – the poor thing was obviously beside herself with worry.
"She'd rather him not ride again, clearly, but there's no use telling Simon Cowell what to do.
"The compromise is that he will ride only when wearing a helmet. He's lucky to be alive and shouldn't push his luck."
Last Thursday the star, 62, skidded in the road at 20 mph and flew over his handlebars into the middle of the road.
