DUBAI: US actress Lindsay Lohan has opened up about her life in Dubai, telling Allure magazine the city “gives me that space to have my own vision of what I need to do next.”

Lohan, who has lived in the UAE for almost eight years, spoke to the American magazine about her pregnancy and life in Dubai.

“Do I want to build my own brand? Do I want to relaunch a new production company? All of these kinds of things I can take time to think about.” Dubai, she said, “gives me that space to have my own vision of what I need to do next.”

Every morning brings tea, breakfast, and a workout. “Sometimes, I call it “The Truman Show,” because it’s the same thing every day,” she joked with the magazine, referring to the Jim Carrey-starring film. “But I love it. I really love structure because I don’t think I had that when I was young. Everything was coming so fast and I had so many things happening. My only structure was filming and being on set.”

The actress lives in the emirate with her husband, Kuwaiti financier Bader Shammas.

Shammas, whose Instagram is on private mode, previously worked as an associate at BNP Paribas Wealth Management up until 2017, according to Elle magazine. Educated in the US, he reportedly holds a degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of South Florida and a Bachelor of Science in Finance degree from John H. Sykes College of Business, which is connected with the University of Tampa.

The couple announced Lohan’s pregnancy in March.
