Lindsay Lohan, the beloved Mean Girls star, found love with Bader Shammas, a Dubai-based financier. The couple, who first sparked romance rumors in 2020, kept much of their relationship private before tying the knot in 2022. Here, let’s take a look at everything to know about her beloved love of life.
Life in Dubai & becoming a father
Bader Shammas and Lindsay Lohan currently reside in Dubai, where he continues to work in the financial sector. In July 2023, they welcomed their first child, a son named Luai, whose name means "shield or protector" in Arabic.
Keeping a low profile
Despite Lindsay Lohan’s celebrity status, Bader Shammas prefers to keep a low profile. He works as the assistant vice president at Credit Suisse, a global financial services company, and maintains a private Instagram account with a modest following. However, Lindsay Lohan occasionally shares glimpses of their love, referring to him as her "forever Valentine" and "my love, my life, my family, my future."
The couple first gained attention in February 2020 when Lohan posted a since-deleted photo from a Dubai music festival, referring to Bader Shammas as her boyfriend. They later got engaged, with Lohan making the announcement on Instagram, flaunting her engagement ring and expressing her happiness.
A love that earned family approval
Bader Shammas has also won over Lindsay Lohan’s family. Her mother, Dina Lohan, celebrated their engagement with an Instagram Story, calling it a moment that filled her heart with joy. Lindsay Lohan further strengthened family ties by sharing photos of them spending time with her loved ones in a year-end recap.
Supportive partner
Though Bader Shammas is the man she ultimately chose to marry, Lindsay Lohan was previously engaged to Russian businessman Egor Tarabasov. However, that relationship ended in 2016 after a physical altercation video surfaced. Reflecting on the past, Lindsay Lohan stated that while she had genuinely fallen in love, the relationship had made her feel unsafe. Lindsay’s recent birthday wish Instagram post for Bader reads, “Happy Birthday Mikey!!! I love you so much!!!,” showcasing her love for the perfect match that god has given to her.
Rare public appearance
While Bader Shammas rarely steps into the spotlight, he made a rare public appearance to support Lohan at the New York premiere of her film Our Little Secret in November 2024. The couple posed together on the red carpet, marking one of their few high-profile public outings.
