Daily Mail​2 days ago
Lindsay Lohan shared a rare snap of her financier husband Bader Shammas and son Luai as she celebrated turning 39 while on vacation in Rome, Italy on Wednesday.
The 'grateful' Mean Girls star - who boasts 30.5M social media followers - captioned her birthday post in Italian, which translated to: 'Unforgettable moments in Italy with my family.'
The married couple of two years are 'cherishing this beautiful trip filled with incredible memories of love, laughter, pure bliss' and they've been enjoying 'very delicious food!'
Lindsay and Bader originally met in 2019 at a restaurant in Dubai - three years after she moved to the United Arab Emirates city - and they'll celebrate little Luai's second birthday on July 17.
Lohan's former frenemy Paris Hilton commented on her post with three heart emojis.
Law & Order: SVU star Mariska Hargitay wrote: 'Happy birthday love!'
Long Island-born Lilo's former Parent Trap co-star Elaine Hendrix gushed: 'Happy birthday Lindsay! I hope you're having a fantastic time.'
Ayesha Curry who, along with husband Stephen Curry, are the godparents of Lohan's child Instastoried: 'Happy birthday to my sweet @lindsaylohan... another blessed year around the sun.'
The former child star's mother Dina Lohan posted a video montage of memories captioned: 'Happy Birthday Linds, Love Mom xo.'
Lindsay's younger sister Aliana Lohan gushed that she was 'one of my best friends' and remarked on how it 'warms my heart every day' to reflect on how much they taught each other while walking 'an extraordinary path' in 'this world together.'
'You are an incredible mother and watching you raise your son with your incredible husband is absolutely beautiful,' the 31-year-old Christian crooner wrote on Instagram.
'May all your dreams continue to come to fruition.'
In May, Lohan told ELLE that her son Luai 'needs a kid to play with' as she teased having more children: 'I don't know if it's selfish — but I'm like, "I need more than one kid to take care of me when I'm older."'
The SAG Award nominee executive produced and reprised her role as Anna Coleman opposite Jamie Lee Curtis in Nisha Ganatra's mother-daughter swap sequel Freakier Friday, which hits US/UK theaters August 8.
It's hard to believe it's been 22 years since Lindsay portrayed Anna in Mark Waters' critically-acclaimed 2003 remake of Freaky Friday, which amassed $160.8M at the global box office.

On Wednesday, Lohan Instastoried side-by-side snaps of herself at age 15 and 38 wielding an electric guitar to perform with Anna's fictional band Pink Slip.
'That punk Anna, she's still there,' the Old Navy brand ambassador told Empire Magazine on Tuesday.
'The second I started with my guitar coach again, it was like we never left. It was the same guitar, everything. It was like it was yesterday. We made [the new song] more difficult for this one. I'm such a perfectionist. We rehearsed a lot.'
The supernatural comedy marks Lindsay's first theatrically released leading role in 18 years as well as her potential comeback as a box office draw after overshadowing her acting career with six court-ordered rehab stints and other Hollywood wild child antics.
Freakier Friday also features Mark Harmon, Chad Michael Murray, Vanessa Bayer, Chloe Fineman, Stephen Tobolowsky, June Diane Raphael, and Elaine Hendrix.

Sarsgaard and Krieps are both slated to receive the Festival President's Award at the opening ceremony. The festival will screen 'Shattered Glass,' a 2003 movie directed by Billy Ray, for which Sarsgaard was nominated for a Golden Globe. To honor Krieps, who received a European Film Award for best actress for her role of the rebellious Empress Sisi in 'Corsage' (2022), the movie 'Love Me Tender' (2025) will be shown at the festival. American actress Dakota Johnson, who will receive the same award on Sunday, was set to present her two latest movies, 'Splitsville' and 'Materialists.' The festival will close on July 12 with an honor for Swedish actor Stellan Skarsgård recognising his outstanding contribution to world cinema. He will present his new movie, 'Sentimental Value' directed by by Joachim Trier, that won the Grand Prix at this year's Cannes Film Festival.

The new Corbyn-Sultana party may be the most sinister Britain has seen in decades

Not since Pulp and the Pyramid Stage were united in perfect harmony in 1995 has the Glasto crowd been this excited about a new partnership. They once chanted: 'Oh, Jeremy Corbyn' to the beat of the White Stripes' Seven Nation Army. They have since declared 'death, death' to an actual army, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). Now, as if by some Eavis-inspired magic, these two worlds have collided to produce Jeremy Corbyn: The Sequel, guest-starring Zarah Sultana. Although the Marxist mash-up is yet to be officially confirmed, we understand the former Labour MPs are unified by a desire to harness Left-wing and Muslim anger to defeat centrists such as Wes Streeting at the next election. Heady stuff. In a social media post, Sultana said the Government is 'an active participant in genocide' in Gaza and highlighted growing poverty, Labour's position on welfare, and the cost of living as reasons for establishing her new party. 'Labour has completely failed to improve people's lives. And across the political establishment, from Farage to Starmer, they smear people of conscience trying to stop a genocide in Gaza as terrorists. But the truth is clear: this Government is an active participant in genocide. And the British people oppose it.' In fact, a majority of Britons (55 per cent) do not view Israel's actions as genocidal, according to the latest YouGov poll, but pro-Palestinian fanatics have never been very good with facts. Corbyn, never a man in much of a hurry, has not yet broken his silence to say whether or not he supports the new party Sultana claims to have set up with him. As soon as he does, we can surely expect a slow pilgrimage of so-called 'progressives' to Islington North, where all new members will be given rainbow 'Queers for Palestine' badges and keffiyeh scarves. Disappointingly, old Compo's lefty pals John McDonnell and Diane Abbott have refused to sign up. Clive Lewis, the Labour MP for Norwich, who once had to apologise for using the phrase: 'Get on your knees, bitch' has also sadly ruled himself out as a future minister for women and equalities. Shame. Sultana famously once said she would 'celebrate' the deaths of Tony Blair and Benjamin Netanyahu – yet claims to espouse a 'socialism without barbarism'. I'm not so sure. I'm not certain someone like Sultana – the MP for Coventry South who lost the Labour whip soon after being re-elected in 2024 – should be considered an expert on barbarism. She once wrote of her support for 'violent resistance' by Palestinians. Sultana has been accused of using racist slurs while a student at Birmingham University, when she described a Jewish student as a 'YT' (whitey) in a Facebook post. In 2015, the 31-year-old, who sat on the national executives of both Young Labour and the National Union of Students, posted on Twitter: 'Yay, the white woman didn't win the Ethnic Minorities Officer Election!' Yay, indeed! She has previously criticised the police and the monarchy. In 2014, she posted: 'Can we get rid of the monarchy while we're fighting the establishment and its institutions? Viva la revolucion!' In 2015, she tweeted: 'Solidarity with those protesting in London right now. Keep safe from the thugs that are the police.' Although she later apologised for her comments about the police, she denies any suggestion she is an anti-Semite, insisting: 'As an anti-racist campaigner and a Muslim, I'm committed to fighting racism in all its forms and I know that these forms are interconnected and must be fought collectively.' Which brings us nicely on to Corbyn, who similarly claims to be a lifelong 'anti-racism campaigner', despite presiding over the Labour Party when a number of Jewish MPs and members were forced out. In 2016, the 76-year-old said he regretted once describing Hamas and Hezbollah as 'friends'. The admission came two years after he attended a wreath-laying in Tunisia for Palestinian leaders linked to the Black September group which carried out a terror attack on the 1972 Munich Olympics, killing 11 people Israelis. Corbyn insisted he was primarily there to pay his respects to the victims of a 1985 Israeli airstrike on Palestinian Liberation Organisation offices in Tunis. Despite being pictured holding a wreath, he said: 'I was present at that wreath-laying, I don't think I was actually involved in it.' Right, Jezza. The important thing to note here is that this isn't Change UK, dreadful though Anna Soubry is. This has the potential to be a political force more frightening than anything Britain has ever known. Despite Sultana's insistence that she is standing up for an 'island that's suffering' – she is not actually interested in the needs of British citizens; her primary aim is to 'free Palestine'. The clue is in the line that she wants 'money spent on public services, not forever wars'. Similarly, her suggestion that 'we need homes and lives we can actually afford, not rip-off bills we pay every month to a tiny elite bathing in cash,' suggests that she is , in fact, more than content with waging a 'forever war' when it comes to class. Or against those she disagrees with, who in her mind are either Tory scum, Zionist scum, racist scum or, of course, genocidal maniacs. Contrary to preaching 'gentler, kinder' politics, Corbyn and Sultana are the high priest and princess of the kind of nasty, vindictive, and divisive hard-Left ideology that saw the Jewish former Labour MP Luciana Berger require police protection to attend the Labour Party conference in 2018. Given half the chance, they would impoverish us in their communist quest for a more 'equal' society and would revel in our immiseration, believing that we must pay for the sins of empire. Sultana describes Farage as a 'grifter'. Yet in her and Corbyn we have the ultimate pair of political fraudsters, purporting to represent the many when, in fact, they are simply a mouthpiece for a vocal minority of deranged zealots.

Diogo Jota gave Liverpool fans goals and a glorious song. He will never be forgotten

Initially it was hard to make out the words. Then when I knew the words I found it hard to sing them. Mainly because there seemed to be too many, leading to lines being tripped over and bafflement with the sound of everyone around me sticking with it. But they were, so I did too, and eventually I got it, and loved it, and, as such, I sang it, over and over again. 'Oh, he wears the No 20 / He will take us to victory / And when he's running down the left wing / He'll cut inside and score for LFC / He's a lad from Portugal / Better than Figo don't you know / Oh, his name is Diogo!' Liverpool supporters love a song and few in recent years have been belted out with as much joyful lustiness as the one dedicated to Diogo Jota. Based on Bad Moon Rising by Creedence Clearwater Revival, it took some Reds longer than others to grasp but we eventually all did and so it roared from the stands of Anfield and elsewhere. A brilliant celebration of a brilliant player and one we expected to continue chanting for a few more seasons at least. And no doubt we will, but its words will now be tinged with sadness. Grief, even. These things are simply not meant to happen and, more than anything, Jota's death is a personal tragedy. He was 28, recently married, a father of three and lost his life alongside his brother. One can only imagine the immense heartbreak being felt by his family and friends. And you only have to glance across mainstream and social media to see his passing has had a wider impact, few places more than at the club he called home for the past five years. Not for the first time, Liverpool Football Club are in mourning. Staff and players have paid their own tributes to Jota, as have fans, seen most vividly with the array of flowers, shirts, scarves and messages of condolences left outside Anfield after news from Spain emerged on Thursday morning. The collective sense of shock and devastation is palpable, as well as heartfelt, because Jota was adored by those who watched him play after his arrival from Wolves for £45m in September 2020. And yes, we knew he wasn't better than Figo, but we could also see that he was good. Seriously, seriously good. Quite simply, Jota was a supreme goalscorer. There were 65 in 182 appearances and when he got a chance he more often than not took it, something you inherently felt watching him and which is backed up by data. As the statistics-based football writer Andrew Beasley posted on Bluesky, 39 players have had 50-plus shots on target for Liverpool in the Premier League, with Jota's 47% conversion rate the highest of them all. More than Mohamed Salah, more than Michael Owen, more than Fernando Torres. And what made Jota's potency especially noteworthy was that he was neither particularly big nor fast. Instead he found his way to goal via a combination of quick thinking, bravery and determination, traits that came together to produce his trademark move: the drop of the shoulder, the surge through defenders, the shift of weight and, finally, the ice-cold shot. To some extent Jota's biggest strengths were also his biggest weakness, in that his willingness to take physical contact from opponents in order to score or set up a teammate to do so – he also provided 22 assists at Liverpool – led to collisions that on more than one occasion sidelined him for an extended spell. And injuries were sadly a notable aspect of Jota's time at Liverpool. He missed more than 150 games through various bone breaks and muscle tears, and the absences became so frequent and lengthy that Liverpool fans increasingly felt he could be sold this summer or become a back-up option. Whatever the future might have held, Jota would always have been cherished by Kopites. It took us a year to watch him in the flesh given his arrival coincided with the Covid-hit behind-closed‑doors season but from a distance a bond was quickly established, not only because of his goals and commitment but also because of a hugely likable nature. And soon he could be enjoyed up close, with his song taking off during the 2021-22 season, his most prolific at the club, with 21 goals scored in 55 appearances (with many indeed coming from the left wing), a contribution that was key to Liverpool winning two domestic trophies and coming agonisingly close to an unprecedented quadruple. And the goals continued, many of them memorable, including winners in a 4-3 victory over Tottenham in April 2023 and a 1-0 triumph over Everton in April of this year that moved Liverpool a step closer to winning a 20th league title. Indeed, Jota's last act as a Liverpool player was lifting the Premier League trophy at a joyous Anfield after the 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace on the final day of last season. The next time players and fans convene there the mood will be strikingly different. But the Jota song will again be sung and he will again be celebrated. It's the least we can do for a player, a person, who gave us so much.
