Simon Cowell’s breakdown ‘helped him find harmony in life’

Washington: Simon Cowell’s breakdown earlier this year encouraged him to find a peaceful balance in his schedule, his former girlfriend Sinitta has revealed. “He did have a tough summer but he’s turned it all around,” Contactmusic quoted her as telling the Sun. The 52-year-old media mogul reached an extremely draining period earlier in the summer, after his professional and personal life became too much for him to take. “It was a good wake-up call because it’s made him try to bring harmony to his whole life, balancing the work and pleasure thing instead of being a complete workaholic,” she said. Apparently Cowell had to follow a strict detox regime to stay away from alcohol. He was also limited to his bed for a week, and remained away from his friends and colleagues during the period. ANI
