Her straight blonde tresses cascaded down her shoulders, enhancing her natural beauty. To top off her birthday look, she sported a colorful and festive birthday hat adorned with faux candles, adding a playful touch to her celebration.

Her post quickly garnered a wide range of reactions from her followers. While some fans were awestruck by her beauty, others expressed skepticism, questioning if the woman in the photo was indeed Lindsay Lohan.

One fan commented, "Looks almost nothing like her," highlighting the significant change in her appearance. Another echoed this sentiment, stating, "Looks nothing like her." The skepticism continued with remarks like, "That is not Lindsay Lohan."

Some fans were impressed by her transformation, with one remarking, "Lost weight and looks clear," while another fan enthused, "her glowup is INSANE.. she's so insanely beautiful [sic]." Admiration for her new look was also evident in comments such as "Looking great and healthy" and another one stating, "beautiful diva."

Despite the mixed reactions, many praised Lindsay's appearance, noting her healthy and radiant look. However, some fans couldn't help but reminisce about her past appearance, with one questioning, "Omgg where are the freckles."

Lindsay's joy extended beyond her birthday as she reflected on her role as a mother. In a YouTube video shared on June 27, she expressed how being a mom to her son Luai with her husband Bader Shammas brings her immense happiness.

"I'm so grateful for every moment of it, just every second. Every morning waking up and running to grab my son and just looking at him and when he looks me back in the eyes, just I'm gonna like, get emotional. It's just the most beautiful. I'm just so grateful every day," she said.

The actress revealed what she's focusing on as she stated, "taking time for myself and really just cherishing every moment." This is a significant shift from her previously fast-paced lifestyle.

When asked about her plans for her 38th birthday and her son's first birthday in July, Lindsay shared that she intended to celebrate with her closest family and friends.

"I always just want to be with family. And I feel like, as you get older in life, the less is more. So yeah, just spending it together. And for my son, I don't know. We're gonna do something fun. I'm gonna get him a bouncy house and make it fun for him," she said.

Lindsay's love and affection for her family have been evident on several occasions. Earlier this year, the "Falling for Christmas" actress was seen out and about with her husband and son.

In a heartwarming display of family unity, actress 37-year-old Lindsay Lohan, alongside her husband, Bader Shammas, was spotted strolling through the streets of New York City with their baby enjoying an ice cream, evoking a wave of fan reactions that ranged from surprise to adoration.

Admirers of Lohan took to social media to express their thoughts, with one commenting on how Lohan "hid her husband & pregnancy very well." At the same time, another called them a "Beautiful Loving Family." The public's astonishment was palpable, as many remarked, "didn't even recognize her" and queried, "She had a baby?"

Many praised Lohan and said they were glad she had finally made it in life. Others had no idea that Lohan was married or had ever been pregnant. Lohan has called Dubai home for over eight years and once opened up about her work, wedding preparations, and things she was grateful for.

"I'm really grateful for my family, my fiancé, and my extended family… And just life experiences. I'm really grateful for every moment," Lohan once shared. The warmth of her relationship was on full display in 2022 when, in an appreciation post, she publicly celebrated her love and gratitude for him.

The couple's journey into parenthood started with their announcement in March last year, sharing the joyous news they were expecting. Fast forward to July 2023, the couple welcomed a new chapter in their lives with the birth of their son.

Lohan, at 37, embraced motherhood with the arrival of Luai, as confirmed by a representative. The representative revealed that "the family is over the moon in love," signaling a new era of joy for Lohan and her husband.
