Lindsay Lohan´s father time

1 October 2007 - Lindsay Lohan is set to leave rehab to spend time with her father.

The 'Mean Girls' actress - who is currently being treated in Utah's Cirque Lodge for drink and drug addiction - will spend five days of "quality time" with dad Michael at a secret location.

Michael - who has successfully battle drink and drug addiction - will take his daughter away as part of the clinic's out-patient therapy programme.

He told the New York Daily News newspaper: "I'm looking forward to spending the next week with her. We've been in constant phone contact. She's in a great, great place now. I've never heard her so honest, remorseful and focused.

"Lindsay is weeding out all the bad. She is taking a step back and re-evaluating her life. What she tells - her honesty and openness - has brought me to tears. It's beyond words how proud I am of her."

Sources close to Lindsay - who was reunited with her father last month after a two-year estrangement - believe Michael is the perfect person to help the actress get clean.

One said: "They believe Michael is the best person for Lindsay to be with now.

"Not only is he her dad - someone with her best interests at heart - but he is also someone who successfully turned his own life around after battling substance abuse."

After spending time with her father, the 21-year-old star will return to the centre to carry on her rehabilitation programme.
