It is The Guardian who writes that the famous “Britain’s Got Talent” and “X-factor” judge Simon Cowell (63) recently sold his London property at a heavily discounted price.
The sale is said to have happened suddenly, because Cowell is said to have been afraid for the family’s safety. They have recently experienced several break-ins.
– What has he done to himself?
Quick sale
The property in Holland Park in Kensington was first put up for sale in July, with an asking price of £45 million – approximately NOK 600 million.
Just days later, it is said to have been sold for just £15 million, NOK 200 million – a staggering NOK 400 million below what it was first advertised for.

The sale was completed in just four days, according to the newspaper.
– Given today’s turbulent market conditions, we are happy to have been able to complete this agreement in less than a week, says Matt Thame, the founder of Cohot Capital, who is said to have been involved in the sale, to the newspaper.
Cowell had lived in the property for 16 years. Because of the many burglaries, he has now decided to move from London to the countryside, together with his partner and their son, writes the newspaper.
– I didn’t recognize myself
– In shock
Journalists in The Sun recently revealed that workers Cowell had hired to install security equipment at his house also installed a decoder that could unlock the door to the property in seconds.
– When The Sun told me about this, I couldn’t believe it. It was like something out of a science fiction movie. I was in shock, he has previously said, according to the website.

In 2015, thieves also broke into the house, while Cowell and his family were sleeping. The thieves are said to have stolen jewelery worth more than £1 million.
– We live in constant fear that it could happen again, and that it will be worse next time, said the TV profile in a statement to the court, according to the newspaper.

– I am very afraid of what could have happened to my son if the burglar had entered his room, he continued.
