Simon Cowell is going to be all right after breaking his arm during an accident involving his electric bike.
The America's Got Talent judge was hospitalized in London recently after falling off the bike. A person familiar with the situation told EW, "Simon broke his arm and is now recovering well."
According to a report by The Sun, which first reported the news alongside a photo of the TV star in a bright yellow cast, the accident occurred last Thursday when Cowell hit a wet patch on the road and went over the handlebars.

This is not the first time Cowell has been hospitalized following an accident on an electric bicycle. In August 2020, he broke his back and had to have surgery after testing out his bike at his home in Malibu, Calif.
Next up for Cowell is America's Got Talent: Extreme, which NBC promises will feature "the most outrageous, unique and jaw-dropping acts of enormous scale and magnitude that simply can't be confined to a theater stage." Cowell, who created the spin-off series, will serve as judge with WWE star Nikki Bella and motocross and rally car driver Travis Pastrana. Extreme will be hosted by AGT host Terry Crews and will premiere Feb. 21.
