Rumours are flying around the net today that X FACTOR boss Simon Cowell may get married this year to the beautiful US make-up artist Mezhgan Hussainy.

According to friends the love-struck producer and impresario is said to have proposed on Valentine’s Day and she accepted.

Rumours began after she was pictured wearing a huge sparkler on her wedding finger this week.

The Sun reports  : ‘A close friend said: “Simon’s definitely engaged. I’ve never seen him so happy. He’s known Mezhgan for several years and they’ve grown close. He finally popped the question.’

Cowell, 50,  confessed to Piers Morgan that “I’m smitten. You know when you’ve found somebody very special.” He is said to have surprised the Afghan-born beauty with the diamond ring as they dined in London. And Cowell was “grinning from ear to ear” when he broke the news that she said Yes.

The pal said: ‘He knows it’s right this time. It will be the biggest showbiz wedding in years.’

If the rumours are true, and they do seem to be, we’re in no doubt that this is just the beginning of what will become one of the most talked about weddings of the decade with Cowell being an internationally recognized figure on the small screen.
