The 54-year-old doting dad added a third photo on Sunday, a close-up of the newborn with the message, "Now you can see how very handsome little Eric is." Simon and Lauren have named their child after Simon's father.

Eric is Lauren's second son. The announcement of her pregnancy turned into a scandal last year, as it came while she was still married to Simon's close friend Andrew Silverman. She has since been divorced.
