Michael Lohan told RadarOnline.com exclusively that his daughter Lindsay's well-publicized troubles come from a "broken heart" stemming from his divorce with her mother Dina, which he said she's been trying to fill with "all the wrong things.
“I'm here to show support," Michael told RadarOnline.com as he arrived in Los Angeles around midnight Wednesday, the same day his daughter is due in court. "Not only for Lindsay, but to be there for Dina and the kids, as well."
Michael told RadarOnline.com exclusively that while a restraining order keeping him away from Dina is in effect for around five more months, he doesn't anticipate any problems, as the two have been able to keep things civil in their co-parenting efforts.
"It doesn't matter," he said of the restraining order.
