Actress Lindsay Lohan is officially transitioning to motherhood! She announced on Instagram that she is expecting a baby. This will be her very first child. She is currently 36 years old.
Lohan chose to keep the baby announcement simple. She posted a picture of a plain white onesie with black text on top of it reading, “coming soon…” She captioned the picture, “We are blessed and excited!”
It has only been two hours since she posted this picture, but already friends and followers have flooded the comments congratulating the mom to be.
In 2020, shortly before the Covid-19 pandemic started a worldwide series of lockdowns, Lohan started dating a man named Bader Shammas. Fast forward to 2021, and Lohan announced that they were engaged. They officially tied the knot in 2022. Now they are on track to welcome a baby to their family later this year.
In a statement, Lohan’s publicist confirmed the actress’s pregnancy saying, “She is pregnant and excited for this next chapter.”
Meanwhile, Lohan told US Weekly in a statement that she and Shammus “are very excited for our new family member to arrive and we are looking forward to this next chapter of our lives!”
While this will be Lohan’s first child, this is not the first time she has been pregnant. Back in 2014, she shared the news that she has previously had a miscarriage. She explained, “I had a miscarriage. I couldn’t move. I was sick. And mentally that messes with you.”
Many parents wait until after the first trimester to publicly announce a pregnancy since the risk of miscarriage is lower at that point. While we don’t know the due date, we can assume that Lohan is probably at least in her second trimester. As TMZ reported, the last time she was photographed was about a month ago, and at the time, she was wearing an outfit that was baggy around her midsection, perhaps to hide a baby bump until she was ready to make the announcement.
In 2022, after Lohan and Shammus tied the knot, she told Vogue that they planned to have children. She explained that her husband gave her a bracelet from Cartier that will “go to my daughter when we have kids.”
Does it surprise you that Lohan is pregnant? Do you think she’ll have a boy or a girl?
