Lindsay Lohan has learned a lot since giving birth to her and husband Bader Shammas’ son, Luai, in July 2023.
Lohan opened up about how becoming a mom has shifted her perspective on her acting career in March 2024.
“I want to do things that my son can see. But I also want to do things that inspire me,” she told E! News at the time. “It’s a learning process – I’m having a different go at it. Figuring out what I want to do and how I want to do it.”
Lohan went on to explain how she’s grateful Luai is “young” so she can “bring him everywhere” with her, even to set.
“He is everywhere with me because I don’t want to leave him,” she shared with the outlet. “But I think it will definitely play more of a factor as time passes.”

I took tons of pictures of it.”
