SIMON Cowell has sold his £15million London mansion over fears for his family safety.
The music mogul and Britain’s Got Talent judge, 63, placed his West London home on the market in July.
He lived at the mansion with his partner Lauren Silverman and their nine-year-old son Eric.
However, after a number of break-ins at the Georgian property, Cowell has now sold the abode.
The Sun has contacted Simon’s rep for comment.
A “traumatic” break-in occurred in 2015 when home intruders stole £1million worth of jewellery while he slept with partner Lauren and their then-infant son.
Serial crook Darren February – later jailed for eight years – got in through a window while a security guard was on the loo and stole £1million of jewellery and passports.
Then in June Simon praised The Sun for smashing an alleged plot to burgle his home again.
It’s after police arrested a security expert suspected of being involved in targeting A-listers’ houses using a lock decoding gadget after previously being hired to make them impregnable.
The BGT supremo said of the alleged plot: “When I initially was told about this story by The Sun, I couldn’t believe it.
“It was like something out of a science fiction film. I want to thank the team at The Sun who have been working hard to expose this.”
His celebrity neighbours include David and Victoria Beckham, Ed Sheeran and Robbie Williams.
Simon added: “I was in total shock. The fact that it is possible for a person to obtain the software code to sell to someone — so they could rob the house my family live in — is disgusting.
“To even consider doing this is dangerous and reckless.”
