Lennard orders Cowell to dump girlfriend

Jasmine Lennard has ordered Simon Cowell to dump his long-term girlfriend so that they can go public with their own relationship.

The society girl's alleged affair with the X Factor judge was exposed in July this year. Although she quickly denied reports of a romance at the time, her friends claim that she is now willing to get serious with Cowell if he ditches Terri Seymour.

A source told the Sunday Mirror: "Jasmine has been incredibly loyal to Cowell. Publicly, she has refused to be drawn on how intimate she is with him since news of their secret affair broke.

"But the truth is Jasmine has deep feelings for Cowell. They have remained very close and Jasmine thinks they'd make a great couple - if Cowell wasn't with Terri."
