Actress Lindsay Lohan and Egor Tarabasov arrive at the 2016 British Asian Awards at a central London hotel, Friday, April 8, 2016.
Lindsay Lohan wants her fiance Egor Tarabasov to undergo therapy for anger
management problems, according to her representative.
The Mean Girls star hit headlines over the weekend when she accused her Russian
partner of cheating on her, and hinted she was pregnant with his child, and a
video emerged online showing Lindsay
screaming for help from the balcony of her London home, claiming Egor was
trying to strangle her.
The actress' representative has now revealed the couple want their relationship
to work and Lindsay would like him to address his anger issues professionally.
"Lindsay believes Egor has anger-management issues and she would like him to go
to therapy," the rep tells New York Post's gossip column Page Six. "They both
want to work things out," before adding they cannot confirm the pregnancy news.
Lindsay's father Michael has reportedly sent threatening text messages to Egor
following the publication of the video, which was taken in the early hours of
Saturday morning.
In one text,
obtained by TMZ.com, Michael writes, "You threaten my daughter, touch her or
if anything happens to her and you will have no where to hide mother ducked
(sic) like weasel."
In other messages, Michael reportedly tells Egor to come and face him, and warns
that he will track him down if he doesn't return her jewellery.
Neighbours called the police after Lindsay pleaded with them to call for help
from her balcony, but no arrests were made.
In the video, Lindsay can be heard screaming, "He just strangled me. He almost
killed me... Please please please. He just strangled me. He almost killed me.
Everybody will know. Get out of my house," and during their taped argument she
called him a "sick f---" who needed help.
Egor's fashion designer pal Dasha Pashevkina, who Lindsay accused of sleeping
with Egor, has defended him, claiming he isn't the violent type.
"He's such a loyal guy and he would never cheat on her, he does actually love
her," she told Britain's The Sun newspaper. "She seems intent on
self-destruction and of isolating herself from everyone that is actually good
around her, which is her loss."
Since the video went public, Lindsay also issued a statement asking for privacy
so the couple could "solve our personal matters".
Commentary by the Ottawa Mens Centre
A claim of strangling is extremely serious however, all the evidence to date indicates that it did not happen and that Lindsay Lohan was having what the press called "a melt down".
The police kicked the door down and no charges were laid.
