Simon Cowell is reportedly "lucky to be alive" after being rushed to hospital following another e-bike crash.
The 62-year-old music mogul was admitted to hospital with a broken arm and a suspected concussion after the crash in West London.
According to Metro UK, a source said Cowell - who has son Eric, seven, with his fiance Lauren Silverman - is "lucky to be alive".
"He was pedalling along, with his electric motor on, when the wheels suddenly went from under him after hitting a wet patch.
"He slipped and went flying over the handlebars into the middle of the road."
The crash marks his second time coming off his bike in 18 months - previously undergoing a six-hour surgery after breaking his back in three places in Malibu.
We're wishing him a speedy recovery!
