It takes a certain kind of man to spend an entire holiday surrounded by ex-girlfriends on a yacht. But Simon Cowell didn’t seem to mind as former fiancée Mezhgan Hussainy stayed close to him during their St Barts holiday, proving that she was top dog.

While another of his former girlfriends Sinitta looked on, sussing out her competition, Mezhgan seemed happy to be queen bee as she chatted to the music mogul.

The make-up artist didn’t seem fazed by the fact that Simon spent much of his day texting on his phone, and made sure that she was always as close to him as possible.

After months of speculation, sources confirmed that the couple had split early in 2012, but it seems that Mezhgan is quite ready to let go of Simon just yet.

Keeping her ex close, just like Sinitta, who dated the X Factor USA judge on and off for twenty years, the brunette beauty still seemed enamored with her friend.

Simon seemed to perk up later in the day when he was spotted grinning from cheek to cheek as he appeared to be in a texting conversation.

It has been confirmed that the 53-year-old is dating bombshell Carmen, although she wasn’t present on his annual St Barts holiday.

Perhaps he was involved in a thrilling chat with the star, who he recently announced he was seeing.

Simon certainly seemed happy as he lounged back alone on her mobile phone and held his dark sunglasses in one hand so he could see the screen more clearly.

The music mogul – who is also hosting his mother Julie, 85, on the trip – crammed in some rare alone time on the Slipstream mega yacht which was in the St Barts area.

Wearing nothing but floral blue and white shorts, Simon seemed eager to lap up some sun while he was away from his home country England.

The hairy-chested star dotted sunscreen on his chest and could be seen applying it in between sipping a refreshing drink.

His exes Megan and Sinitta were relaxing around him, donning swimwear and sun-shielding hats as they enjoyed tea.

Cowell is thought to have spent over $1.2 million on keeping his women happy on the trip.

The group have been enjoying themselves with partying at night but attempting to stick to a healthy eating plan during the day so they don’t pile on too many festive pounds.

On Friday, former pop star Sinitta posted a snap of her breakfast for her Twitter followers to see what she has been feasting on.

She captioned the image: ‘Ultimate Hangover cure – fresh berries, watermelon and papaya, a bowl of sugar free rasberry jelly and a green juice’

There is said to be a private butler and a chef (who has been making healthy green smoothies and skinny muffins for Cowell, said to be determined not to put on weight before filming begins on the new series of Britain’s Got Talent in mid-January).

He also has a personal trainer – Nigel – to put him through a twice-daily workout in the private gym.
