1. Lindsay Lohan is expecting her 1st child

The star of The Parent Trap is about to be a parent. Lindsay Lohan has revealed she's pregnant, sharing the news via an Instagram photo of a onesie that says "coming soon." This will be her first child with husband Bader Shammas. The actress, who made a comeback last year with Netflix's Falling for Christmas, married Shammas last year, saying at the time, "I am the luckiest woman in the world." She previously noted that they planned to have children, telling Vogue he gave her a Cartier bracelet for Christmas that will "go to my daughter when we have kids." She now tells TMZ, "We are very excited for our new family member to arrive and we are looking forward to this next chapter of our lives!" Not to get too ahead of ourselves, but if someone wants to get cracking on writing a Freaky Friday legacy sequel where Lohan swaps places with her own kid, there's no time like the present.
