lindsay lohan is taking time to recover after welcoming her first child in 2023.
Talking to Urgency for her new cover story, the 37-year-old Irish desire the actress says she’s not worried about getting back to her pre-baby body and that if the pressure is on, she’s not worried about it.
“Everyone is getting so skinny now. I feel like everything always comes full circle again, so this is the time and this too shall pass. But it seems like there is pressure,” she tells the outlet.
Lohan welcomed his son, Luai, with husband Bader Shammas in July, a year after they got married. The duo, who live in Dubai, announced for the first time that they were expecting in March 2023 and since then they have kept their life with a newborn private.
In August, just weeks after welcoming her son, she shared a photo in postpartum underwear and a sports bra, thanking her body for helping her through her pregnancy and saying that she found being a mother to be an incredible experience.
“I am so proud of what this body has managed to accomplish during these months of pregnancy and now recovery. Having a child is the greatest joy in the world,” she wrote.
In the same post, she also quoted one of the most iconic lines from his film, Mean Girls.
“My OOTD lately is my @fridamom postpartum underwear. Since I’m not a normal mom, I’m a postpartum mom,” Lohan wrote. The last line is a cheeky reference to Amy Poehler’s quote from the 2004 film: “I’m not a normal mom, I’m a cool mom.”
Lohan has come a long way since the not-so-ancient times when every part of her appearance was taken apart by the media and tabloids – something she has spoken out about in the past. In his new interview with UrgencyO Confessions of a Teenage Drama Queen Star says he’s happy to see times changing and social media allowing individuals in the public eye to have a say in how they are portrayed.
“Social media is so different now than when I was younger that everyone is in control of their own story,” says Lohan. She adds that even despite the advances made, she thinks it’s better and healthier to simply avoid everything.
“I don’t really pay attention to it. I also don’t read stuff that comes out. Because I know how it works, so it doesn’t make sense. And if you dive into that stuff, you’ll just get lost and it can do a lot for you,” says Lohan .
