Fresh out of Utah’s Cirque Lodge rehabilitation center, Lindsay Lohan already gave her exclusive interview to OK! magazine, and now her father Michael is talking to Us Weekly about how his daughter is doing and what her future holds. Here's what he had to say...
On Lindsay being sober:
“Lindsay’s so great. She’s her old self…I’m really proud of her. She’s really turned her life around.”
On what they did when Michael visited Lindsay in rehab:
“We went to the mall, spent quality time together. Just hanging out and talking. We were out in the woods, walking. She did some shopping, of course.”
On Lindsay returning to L.A.:
“She had second thoughts about going back to LA, and didn’t want to be in that element before shooting started on the 15th…Everyone’s trying to get her back to LA. She said, ‘I don’t know if I want to go back there,’ and we all talked about it. I told her, ‘Then don’t – follow your heart.’”
On where she’ll live in Sundance, Utah, during out-patient treatment:
“She’ll live in a house. It doesn’t need to be glamorous. She’s come back to nature. She’s humbled herself in a great way.”
On the pitfalls of being a child star:
“She has such a gift. It’s a shame if she didn’t use it the right way…Take any kid from an All-American family with no problems whatsoever and give millions of dollars and make them famous and put them out there. The problem when you have turmoil in your house as a result of all your success, now instead of just dabbling and partying once in a while, now you’re running away from it all…
On what Lindsay thinks of her mother doing a reality show:
“She understands her mother has to make money, but doesn’t necessarily agree with it.
On the promise ring he recently bought for Lindsay at Zales:
“It’s a promise now that we’re back in each other’s lives again, we won’t walk back again. It’s a band with all diamonds, then another band with diamonds, and a solitaire diamond in the middle and another band.”
