Dina Lohan is trying to set the record straight after her daughter infamously accused her of being high on coke during their heated limo fight last month.
“Absolutely lied. We were having an argument, it escalated,” Lindsay’s equally notorious mother said to Entertainment Tonight of their row. “She just wanted to hurt me at that moment. You know, mothers [and] daughters, we fight.”
As for the cocaine accusations, the limelight loving mom said, “I hate cocaine. I don’t do cocaine.”
The troubled duo got into hysterics after leaving a New York City club at 4 a.m. as the two got into a limo to Dina’s Long Island home in October. During their fight, Lindsay made a frantic call for help to her father Michael, claiming that she was being kidnapped by Dina and famously screamed, “Dad, she’s on cocaine. She’s like touching her neck, and [bleep].”
After the dust settled, the “Liz & Dick” actress admitted to lying about her mother abusing the drug shortly after their dirty laundry was leaked to the media by her dad.
Dina was hurt by her daughter’s apparent lie, but she’s “proud” that Lindsay bit the bullet.
“I’m so proud of her for telling the truth because it destroyed me,” she said. “I mean, I cried for weeks. It just hurt me so bad and she knew how horrible that was, and she came clean and told the truth that she lied. I’m very proud of her for that, which is very difficult to have to do.”
Dina added, “There’s so much more to the story than the public sees, and it takes its toll on my children and myself, and we’re just trying to move forward.”
