Lindsay Lohan gives birth to her first child, a boy
Lindsay Lohan has given birth to her first child.
The “Parent Trap” star and her husband, financier Bader Shammas, are the parents of a “beautiful, healthy son” named Luai, her rep told The Associated Press in a statement Monday.
“The family is madly in love,” the statement said.
Lohan, 37, gave birth in Dubai, where the couple lives according to page six. Her son’s exact date of birth has not been released.
Luai is an Arabic name meaning ‘shield’ or ‘protector’. Lohan announced her pregnancy in March with a photo on Instagram of a white onesie adorned with “available soon.”
She has lived abroad for several years and has been married to Shammas since last year.
Lohan was once a tabloid mainstay, but now has a lower public profile. She has returned to acting, starring in Netflix’s ‘Falling for Christmas’ last year and the streaming service’s upcoming romantic comedy ‘Irish Wish’.
In a June interview with Allure magazineLohan said she was thrilled to be a mom, and talked about work-life balance.
“I can’t wait to see what it feels like and what it’s like to just be a mom,” she said. “It’s overwhelming in a good way.”
Lohan sought the help of her “Freaky Friday” co-star.
“I was talking to Jamie Lee Curtis recently, and she said, ‘Just bring the baby and everything will be fine,'” she said.
Lohan’s mother, Dina Lohan, recently told People magazine that her daughter wanted to be a mother.
“Lindsay has always loved children because I love children and my mother loves children; I am one of four,” she said. “We have a big family, so she’s always wanted kids. And she is so maternal.”
As for Shammas, Dina said he’s ‘so sweet and they’re so happy. They are just very happy and ready.
