The Truth About Lindsay Lohan's Relationship With Her Father

Despite a few publicized arguments like the one that was recorded, Lindsay remains close to her mom, according to a 2016 interview with the Daily Mail. In the same interview she shared that she had cut off contact with her dad because she blamed him for spreading rumors about her to the tabloids.

"My father is known for talking to the press and selling stories. He loves the attention. In the past he's said I've done drugs, he put my number on the internet," Lindsay told the outlet. "Who does that? Some of the stuff he's done proves to me he doesn't care about me."

In January 2018 Us Weekly reported that Lindsay and her dad had mended fences. She described her relationship with both her parents as "great" at the time and said they'd all recently spent the holidays together. It's unclear whether or not they're still on speaking terms.

More recently, Michael Lohan has made headlines on his own. In February 2020 People reported that he'd been charged with assaulting his estranged wife, Kate Major. He denied the charges.

In April, NBC News reported that Michael had been arrested in Palm Beach County, Florida, on six counts of patient brokering. "Mr. Lohan was investigated by our Sober Homes Task Force and he's being charged with receiving kickbacks for referring patients to drug treatment," State Attorney Dave Aronberg told the outlet. He is currently out on bond, per TMZ.
