Lindsay Lohan reveals she got engaged while filming her new Christmas move

Lindsay Lohan got engaged on the set of Falling For Christmas.

The 36-year-old actress - who is making her comeback to movies in the festive Netflix romcom about a hotel heiress who gets engaged to her boyfriend before losing her memory - tied the knot with Bader Shammas earlier this year and revealed that he proposed to her when she was at work but had to keep it a secret.

She said: "Married life is great. He's a great man and I found my partner. You never know if that's gonna happen in life. But I get really shy talking about it. I feel like when you have a partner, you become protective of the two of you in a different way. We got married in April actually, but the hardest thing was he proposed to me on the set of Falling For Christmas. Not [literally], on the set, but off set when we were filming and I had to not tell anyone because I didn't want it to distract it from our work and stuff so I was holding in that I was engaged. And I'm getting engaged in the movie and I was like 'I can't do this anymore!'"

The Mean Girls star - who started dating businessman Bader, 35, in 2019, five years after she had relocated to Dubai - went on to explain that she always knew the pair were going to tie the knot.

Speaking on The Drew Barrymore Show, she told stand-in host  Ross Matthews: "I did know right away. I said it to him. I was like 'I think I'm gonna marry you one day' but I think he thought I was crazy. But I didn't think I was crazy. I felt it, I knew it!"

Falling For Christmas is out now on Netflix.
