SIMON has handed fiancée Lauren control of their wedding — after first hinting he might be in charge.
The couple, dating since 2013, are expected to marry next year.
Asked if he was masterminding the proceedings, Simon laughed and replied: “Absolutely not.”
Pressed to confirm if their big day would take place in 2023, he added: “I’m not going there because I’ll get into too much trouble”.
Simon added that he and Lauren — who he describes as his rock — have decided not to talk publicly about their relationship for privacy reasons, and that their wedding “will be quiet”.
The Sun revealed in January that the couple were engaged.
