Simon Says: British pop star Phil Collins has won a court battle to keep a high-priced Canadian home he bought for his two children out of the hands of his former wife for at least four more years. The British Columbia Supreme Court ruled that Collins’ 15-year-old son, Simon, will have to wait until he is 19 before he can sign over his half share in the $1.2-million home to his mother, Andrea Collins. Collins’ daughter, Joely, signed over her share this year on her 19th birthday, but the judge ruled that the younger sibling should reserve his decision to give up a “substantial asset” until he reaches the “age of majority.” Collins estimated his wealth at about $50 million last year.
