Simon Cowell is probably breathing a big sigh of relief in St. Tropez -- because as RadarOnline.com has confirmed -- his pregnant baby mama has reached an out-of-court divorce settlement with the man she cheated on, husband Andrew Silverman.
"Yes, Lauren and Andrew's divorce is finalized," a family source confirmed to RadarOnline.com.
The agreement struck ensures that the pair will share joint custody of the couple's seven-year-old son and an amount of the pre-nup which is believed to be half of the agreed $4 million.
Andrew, a 37-year-old New York real estate developer, had named the former American Idol ace a co-respondent in divorce papers he filed in Manhattan Supreme Court, citing the adultery as the reason for the split.
