Daddy cool: Shirtless Simon Cowell continues to make a splash as he rides a jet-ski on Ibiza holiday
He may be in the thick of the latest X Factor series.
But, to look at Simon Cowell, there's little evidence of that, especially as he was seen soaking up the sun in Ibiza on Sunday.
In fact, the 55 year-old flaunted his own talents as he navigated the Mediterranean sea with a jet-ski while holidaying on the island of Formentera.

Making a splash! X Factor judge Simon Cowell flaunted his own talents as he navigated the Mediterranean sea with a jet-ski while holidaying on the island of Formentera
Wearing just his swimming shorts and a life jacket, the father-of-one capped his look with a pair of 80s-inspired reflective sunglasses.
Smiling broadly as he picked up speed on the vehicle, the music mogul was clearly enjoying himself.
Naturally, he was watched by a very special audience - which consisted of girlfriend Lauren Silverman and their 18-month-old son Eric.

Down-time: The music mogul was evidently thrilled to be spending some down-time away from the spotlight
Laughing and joking with fellow holidaymakers, he was evidently thrilled to be spending some down-time away from the spotlight.
Meanwhile, excitement for the revamped X Factor is gaining momentum since a teaser trailer was released last week.
The show's boss has completely shaken up the judging panel this year: after reinstating Cheryl Fernandez-Versini last year, he recruited Nick Grimshaw and Rita Ora for the forthcoming series, after Louis Walsh left after 11 years on the panel.

Abs-olutely fabulous: Simon inadvertently showed off his toned physique as he took a break
Olly Murs and Caroline Flack were confirmed as the first ever duo to host the UK X Factor in April after long-running host Dermot O'Leary stepped down from his post, while Rochelle Humes and Melvin Odoom take over Sarah-Jane Crawford's role as the faces of Xtra Factor.
Speaking recently to Hello! Magazine, Simon has insisted he is over the judging panel feuds and wants the full focus to be on contestants.
'I'm kind of bored with all the fights,' he explained. 'I just want to get it back to the talent.'
The X Factor is set to return to ITV later this month.
