SIMON Cowell was forced to apologise to his eight-year-old son after swearing during the live Britain’s Got Talent final.
The BGT mogul, 62, turned the air blue while chatting to finalists Flintz & Taylor following their performance.
Unfortunately, the duo had made a big mistake while on stage and it even left judge Alesha Dixon in tears.
Rapper Flintz was overcome with nerves and forgot his words shortly after their song had begun.
But attempting to make the 23-year-old feel better, Simon swore live on air. He spelt out the word ‘s***’, despite it being before the 9pm watershed.

Simon said: “I’m going to have to apologise to my son Eric now…
“It’s always [s-*-*-*]when you forget lyrics but the song actually had a great hook in it.
“Don’t worry about what happens because it happens all the time.”
He added: “I’m not saying this to be patronising, this was your best performance by a clear mile.”
