Simon Cowell thinks his baby son has got his "handsome" looks from him.

The 54-year-old music mogul posted a series of cute photographs of three-month-old Eric on his Twitter account last night (05.05.14), but he made sure he took full credit for the tot's sweet smile and adorable facial features.

He tweeted a snap of Eric, peering over the sofa, with the caption: "Very handsome like his dad."

The 'X Factor' boss also assured his fans that the youngster, whom he has with his girlfriend Lauren Silverman, has been very "healthy and happy" following his birth on February 14.

Meanwhile, Simon's former girlfriend Terri Seymour recently admitted that the 'Britain's Got Talent' judge is a "really good" dad - apart from the occasional near-mishap.

She said last month: "He's great actually. I mean he hasn't changed his lifestyle because Simon wouldn't. But he's very good. He'd never even held a baby before, so he was like, 'How do you hold a baby?'

"You have to remind him every now and then about the head... But he's really good and he loves it."

"Everybody was like, 'Oh my God, this is going to be so strange' but it's all been very natural."

Although, Terri believes Simon has taken to fatherhood so well because Eric is such an "easy" baby.

She explained: "I think [baby Eric] is just so easy. I met him obviously a few times before. He's amazing, he's the most well-behaved baby.... considering he's Simon's!"
