Simon Cowell has no intention of marrying the woman carrying his illegitimate child, a pal of the music mogul tells Breaking Celebrity News.

The X Factor judge reportedly knocked up married New York socialite Lauren Silverman, who emerged from hiding in The Hamptons on Thursday -- the first time she's been photographed since the scandal erupted.

"There is simply no question that Simon will take responsibility for the child and make sure the baby is taken care of," an associate of the reality television star told Breaking Celebrity News.

"He will step up and be a part of the life of the child… but Simon is saying privately that he has absolutely no plans to marry Lauren."

Lauren's husband Andrew Silverman, a 37-year-old real estate developer, was left "shocked" after learning of the illicit tryst and has 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.
