Ant and Dec Share Simon Cowell Reaction as They Almost Quit Britain's Got Talent
Ant and Dec nearly quit Britain's Got Talent due to Simon Cowell's chronic lateness and reduced presence, but he vowed to improve and increase their involvement on the show.
- A few years ago, Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly went to Los Angeles to tell Simon Cowell they were going to leave Britain's Got Talent because they "weren't having a very nice time," the presenters explained.
- Ant and Dec said they "weren't having a very nice time" because Simon Cowell was often late, and they appeared on Britain's Got Talent less, considering moving their energies elsewhere.
- During a Los Angeles lunch, Cowell told Ant and Dec `No, you can't leave. I'll turn up on time, and we'll make sure that you're featured more in the show and you have more fun with it,` as he leaned over and said `you will never leave me.`
- Cowell's response led him to take Ant McPartlin and Declan Donnelly's concerns on board, and the presenters say they have enjoyed Britain's Got Talent more while maintaining a positive relationship with him.
- The admission arrives as the duo, who have fronted Britain's Got Talent for 19 years, also lead several other ITV shows, highlighting their broader commitments amid controversy earlier this month over their podcast promo.
