people.com 10-01-2024 03:57 4 Minutes reading
The Mean Girls alum is the daughter of Dina and Michael Lohan, who welcomed the actress into the world on July 2, 1986. As Lindsay ascended to fame as a child star, her mom became her manager, and dad Michael, who initially worked on Wall Street, also entered the public eye as Lindsay's father. Michael and Dina separated when the actress was three, though they later reconciled. Dina filed for divorce in January 2005 and it was finalized in 2007. Over the years, Lindsay has opened up about her parents' divorce. In 2020, she revealed playing twins in The Parent Trap (her breakthrough role at age 11) helped her deal with the separation of her own mom and dad. "My parents were kind of separating at the time when this was all going on. And it made it a lot easier for me to play these characters that were figuring it out," she said at a virtual reunion of the 1998 film. "I just felt so lucky and really blessed... Without this movie, I wouldn't have gotten the acting bug." Read on for what to know about Lindsay Lohan's parents, Dina and Michael Lohan. Dina and Michael wed in 1985, one year prior to Lindsay's birth. They briefly separated in 1988, but later rekindled their relationship. Two decades later, however, their marriage -- which was oftentimes tumultuous -- ended in divorce in 2007. Dina and Michael Lohan had four kids together. Lindsay is the eldest of the Lohan siblings, born in July 1986. The couple welcomed Michael Jr. in December 1987; daughters Aliana and Dakota followed in December 1993 and June 1996, respectively. Each of the Lohan siblings took different career paths as they grew older, though the entire Lohan clan had cameos in Disney's 1998 adaptation of The Parent Trap, in which Lindsay starred. Amid Dina's marriage to Michael, she predominantly gained public recognition as the mother of Lindsay, taking on the role of her "momager" (a word popularized by Kris Jenner to mean mom/manager) as her daughter rose to fame in the entertainment industry. Dina's support for Lindsay, both personally and professionally, has continued through the years. In recent years, she attended the premiere of her comeback film, Falling for Christmas, and stepped out with the actress to support her family's walk in Siriano's 2023 NYFW runway show. Prior to Lindsay's birth, Michael was a Wall Street commodities broker who inherited his father's pasta business. After Lindsay was born, he became well-known as the movie star's dad alongside his now ex-wife Dina. Both Dina and Michael had various screen gigs, some of which have been alongside their famous daughter. Catfish's Nev Schulman discovered that her alleged Internet boyfriend was Jesse Nadler, a then 53-year-old resident of Tiburon, California. The couple announced their engagement in June 2020. Her ex-husband Michael also approved of Jesse, saying he's "a really nice guy with a good heart." (Dina and Jesse never wed.) Dina told Entertainment Tonight that she consulted all four of her kids before taking on the reality TV competition series. "I watched it first, asked my children, and then I said, 'This is kind of cool 'cause I'm kind of empty nesting.'" Michael made headlines for his legal troubles on several occasions. In the late 1980s, he faced jail time in a stock fraud case and again in the late 1990s for violating his probation. In the years that followed, he was involved in a long-running divorce battle with Dina and has had an estranged relationship with Lindsay. In 2010, he got engaged to former reporter Kate Major. They wed in 2014 and later welcomed sons Landon and Logan together. In 2018, Kate filed for divorce just over a month after she was arrested in a domestic violence dispute. In 2020, Michael was arrested and charged for allegedly choking and harassing his estranged wife Kate. The charges were later dropped. As of June 2022, court records show that he resides near Houston, Texas. Amid her reality show stints, Dina has also faced legal troubles. She was arrested following a vehicle collision in Long Island in January 2020. She later pleaded not guilty to driving while intoxicated (DWI) and saw brief jail time in September 2021. (She was also charged for a September 2013 DWI in 2014, At the time, a Nassau County district court judge sentenced her to 100 hours of community service. Her driver's license was also suspended for one year and she was fined $3,000.)

These Are the 15 Best Laptop Backpacks for Travel

Things to Consider Before Buying a Laptop Backpack for Travel When you're buying a backpack for travel, especially one for transporting a laptop, you should consider the capacity and how much will fit. Some laptop backpacks for travel only fit certain size laptops, others might just fit a laptop and a few other things and some can store several clothes as well as notebooks, laptops, toiletry bags, and more. In some cases, laptop backpacks for travel with higher storage capacity can function similarly to a weekender bag. And bonus points if there are lots of pockets and compartments for organizing your items. "Compartmentalizing work items creates ease of navigation on the go," Volpe says. "Another factor in purchasing a travel laptop bag is durability," says Volpe. She points out various travel hazards like spilled coffee on planes and rainstorms where a good backpack material can be the difference between a ruined day and momentary inconvenience. You want to make sure that, like other types of underseat luggage, your laptop backpack for travel can withstand the wear and tear of being shoved by your feet on an airplane. "Durable materials like leather are luxe and long-lasting," says Volpe. "They also take wear and tear nicely." She points out that the look of leather improves over time, so even once it has worn down over time, it will retain that vintage leather feel. "Another great option for durability is high-quality polyester," she says (as well as nylon). She adds that this material generally costs less than leather, and can "outlast torrential downpours and being crammed into an overhead compartment." Our best overall laptop backpack for travel is the Solo Re-Define Backpack, partly due to its lightweight, durable, water-resistant polyester material. The design of a laptop backpack for travel can either aid or hinder your travels, so you want to look for features that add to the overall comfort, durability, and use of the bag. Features like adjustable straps, the ability to connect to a charger, and the number of pockets and storage compartments are all important factors to look for. Also, an ergonomic top handle is great for those who prefer carrying tote bags. "Instead of being too trend forward I look for a travel laptop bag that has an aesthetic which can last for three to four years versus one season," Volpe says. She suggests avoiding wild prints/patterns and looking for solid colors that will pair well with many outfits and occasions. "A travel laptop bag isn't something you just throw away like a budget-friendly evening clutch," exclaims Volpe. "It has to be appropriate to take to business meetings and while working from your local coffee shop." It's not unlike investing in a great functional women's work bag. But a laptop backpack for travel doesn't have to be boring. "Color is A-okay for the creative and fun-loving types," she says. "Combination neutrals like cream, brown, and gray are chic, mature, and versatile to coordinate with any outfit." And for the tech-s...
