The 29-year-old actress is currently romancing Russian businessman Egor Tarabasov, and her relationship has been given the seal of approval by Dina Lohan, who has reportedly confided in friends that she hopes her troubled daughter settles down with her new man.

According to TMZ, Dina has told pals she is "anxious for grandchildren" and thinks Egor is the right man for the 'Mean Girls' star to start a family with.

Lindsay recently admitted she is "really happy" with the estate agent.

She said: "I haven't known Egor for that long. We've been together for about seven months.

"But I do have a boyfriend and he is a great guy. I met him in the summer. I'm really happy."

Lindsay's father Michael Lohan recently praised Egor as a "great influence" who wants to help his daughter get her career back on track.

He said: "He's a great influence. He has a lot of strong connections in Russia - these are big people and they're very supportive. He wants things to be in the right place for Lindsay and he's wise beyond his years."

Michael, 55, says Egor has his complete blessing to date his daughter - whose last film role was in 'The Canyons' in 2013 - and he says they make a lovely couple.

Michael added: "He's grown up with money but he's not spoiled. He's not the kind of guy to just sit back and spend his money. She may be older than him, but Lindsay is younger at heart. If she's happy, I'm happy."
