SIMON COWELL is threatening to leave his multi-million dollar fortune to his pet dogs. The animal-loving music mogul, 48, has a large family as well as a long-term partner, Terri Seymour.
But he is reluctant to pass his estimated $200 million on to any human loved ones. He says, "I'll probably leave the lot to the animals. There'll be some very rich poodles in Beverly Hills." Cowell - who fought back from bankruptcy in the 1980s to become one of Britain's wealthiest men - adds, "If I had made money when I was 21, I'd probably be dead by now. I wouldn't have made 22. I would have gone crazy."
