Talkative showbiz dad Michael Lohan is serving up the scoop on his first meeting in over three years with his formerly estranged daughter Lindsay Lohan. The pair reunited late last week at Utah’s Cirque Lodge Rehab, where Lindsay is currently receiving treatment for drug and alcohol addiction. According to Michael, who has struggled with addiction himself, Lindsay is ready to leave Hollywood and show buisness behind.

“As soon as I arrived Lindsay rushed into my arms, then curled up on my lap and sobbed like a baby.”

“Lindsay said, ‘Daddy, I have done some terrible things and been addicted to drugs but please believe me I will never do drugs again,” Michael tells NOTW.

“She said she does not want to live in Hollywood as that is where this evil in her life happens.”

“She said, ‘I hate Hollywood and I don’t want to work there. I need a break and I am moving away’.”

“You only have to look at the poor state Britney Spears is in at the moment to know living in Hollywood is not good for these young girls.”

“When she is not writing, she helps look after the horses stabled nearby. Every day she helps muck them out, feed them and ride them.”

“She has taken up gardening and loved showing me the roses she helps look after. These are things normal people take for granted, but things which Lindsay has not done for a long time because she has been wasted on drugs. I have seriously not seen her this happy in years.”

“She wants to make absolutely certain she can cope on her own in the outside world.”
