Where to start with Michael Lohan, Lindsay’s dad. The father of four children with ex-wife, Dina Lohan, he was scarcely out of prison—the first time—when Lindsay began her career at Ford Models. Lohan’s role in Lindsay’s success—or downfall, take your pick—has long been disputed: In a 2005 interview with New York magazine, Lohan insisted his wife, Dina, was trying to steal Lindsay’s fame and fortune for herself. “All my life, I supported them,” Lohan said. “And then, when Lindsay finally hit, I could see it coming: how Dina was starting to mold, get all her friends around her, have her family around her, and start siding with them.” Despite Lindsay’s 2005 song “Confession of a Broken Heart” that said she is part of “a family in crisis that only grows older,” Lohan would not be deterred: he routinely tried to pitch reality shows based off his life. Lohan even has accused Dina of snorting coke with Lindsay in the past and wrote Billy Ray Cyrus a letter saying “Why I ask, if it so hard for our wives, children and even the public, to see that all we are trying to do, is to be there for our family and try to make things right?”
