Lindsay Lohan’s dad, Michael Lohan, was arrested Saturday, February 22, over the alleged assault of his estranged wife, Kate Major, according to multiple reports.

People, TMZ and Page Six report that Michael, 64, was taken into custody without incident in Harris County, Texas, and charged with one felony count of “continuous violence against the family.”

According to the outlets, Major reported pain and discomfort during a hospital appointment on Friday, February 21, and told police officers that Michael had flipped her out of a chair several days before. A female deputy noted bruising on Major’s body, the reports said.

Michael was held on a $30,000 bold, said the outlets.

Lindsay Lohan rose to fame playing twin sisters Annie James and Hallie Parker in 1998’s The Parent Trap, subsequently launching her film career. As Lohan’s time in the spotlight continued to make headlines, her family was always in her corner. The Mean Girls actress is the eldest child of Dina Lohan (née Sullivan) and Michael Lohan, who finalized […]

Us Weekly has contacted the Harris County Sheriff’s Office for comment.

In a statement to TMZ Sunday, Michael, 64, denied the allegations. “I’ve shut up long enough about Kate’s physical, emotional and verbal abuse,” he said. “She set me up. Originally she said I was stalking her! Really? Lol. Then, when that didn’t work, she said, I pushed her over a chair which is a total lie. Not only will my kids attest to it, but I have video. I have more videos of her abuse.” (Major has yet to publicly respond to Michael’s comments at the time of publication.)

Michael and Major, 42, married in 2014 and share two children, sons Landon, 12, and Logan, 10. Major filed for divorce in 2018. (Michael also shares four children with his ex-wife, Dina Lohan, including Lindsay, 38.)

The couple have had their ups and downs over the years. In June 2024, Major was arrested for violation of a protective order after a heated exchange with Michael in the middle of the road, reported TMZ at the time.

Michael was previously arrested for allegedly assaulting Major in Southampton, New York, in February 2020.

According to the Southampton Police Department, the domestic incident occurred at the Lohan’s house — but the arrest took place two miles away on Main Street. “He was arrested without incident,” Sgt. Herman Lamison told Us at the time.

Michael was charged with “misdemeanor criminal obstruction of breathing or blood circulation (choking)” as well as second-degree harassment, the sergeant said.
