Lindsay Lohan announces engagement to Kuwaiti banker Bader Shammas

American actress Lindsay Lohan announced her engagement to Kuwaiti financier Bader Shammas on her Instagram page on Sunday, posting a photo showing her with her fiancé and a brand new ring.

Lohan has been based in Dubai for the past six years, where she most likely met Shammas, who also lives there. Little is known about Shammas, who has been described as a "legitimate guy" by a source close to the couple.

"He's not an actor, he's not in the entertainment industry, he manages funds for high net worth people at Credit Suisse,” the source told British tabloid The Sun in May.

Lohan's happy personal news coincided with positive developments on a professional level. Her acting career seems to be picking speed after several years without a lead acting role, she will star in an upcoming Christmas romantic comedy on Netflix. 

Despite an early rise to fame as a child actor, starting acting at the age of three, Lohan struggled with drug addictions as a young adult. She slowly withdrew from her career starting in the early 2010s, although she appeared in two movies in 2018 and 2019.
