Simon Cowell has been given a slap on the wrist by police after walking his dogs on a Miami beach.

The music mogul, 54, was spotted with his two Yorkshire Terriers, Squiddly and Diddly, in the Bal Harbour resort, as he holidayed with girlfriend Lauren Silverman and their newborn son Eric.

The couple, whose relationship became public last year after Silverman's husband filed for divorce following their affair, appeared to ignore a sign which stated no dogs were allowed by the water.

But the family escaped a $200 (£120) fine and local officers issued them with a warning.

They seemed unfazed by the brief disruption as they enjoyed the sunshine.

And his glamorous girlfriend, wearing a turquoise beach dress and a fedora-style wicker hat, was pictured leaning in for a kiss as the happy threesome retired in the shade.

Last week the X Factor boss posted a picture on Twitter of his son, who was born on Valentine's Day, sleeping with two cuddly toys.
