Simon Cowell has said that he is loving life as a single man.

The X Factor supremo split from girlfriend Terri Seymour last month after a six-year relationship, reportedly because he refused to have children.

He revealed that he has no regrets about the break-up, telling the News Of The World: "You know the best thing about being single? Those late night calls I don't have to make anymore, like: 'Darling, I'll be late home again.'

"I don't mean to sound horrible to Terri but I'm having a great time being single. It's really good fun."

Cowell added that he is still in touch with Seymour and they now have a strong friendship, saying: "She and I still speak and we always will. I'm friends with all my old girlfriends. I don't see the point in falling out with them after you spend so much time with them.

"It was sad when Terri and I finished but now I get to do what I want, which is brilliant. I don't want to settle and get married and don't think I ever will. I work hard and enjoy life as it is."
