Michael Lohan announces engagement, calls Samantha Ronson a “parasite” on Lindsay

First, the engagement is supposedly ‘not official’, but Michael was happily sharing the news with close friends, like E! News.

Doing his part to keep the family name in the headlines, Michael Lohan has confirmed to E! News that he popped the question to longtime girlfriend Erin Muller.

“We picked out a ring, but it’s not official,” the 48-year-old Lohan patriarch said. But although Muller, 24, has accepted his proposal, and he’s not exactly keeping the nuptial news under wraps, he says he’s holding off on officially announcing the engagement until “some family issues are resolved.”

He had no comment to share like ‘Lindsay is very happy for me’, so I guess she either doesn’t know or isn’t sharing her blessings. He had this to add, that he thinks Samantha Ronson is a parasite.

“I’m not happy,” Michael Lohan says. “Ever since [Lindsay] got out of rehab and all these people came back into her life, things haven’t been right.

“People like Samantha Ronson don’t need to be around Lindsay. She shouldn’t be dragging Lindsay around nightclubs. Who was Samantha Ronson before Lindsay Lohan? She was nobody. She is using her for her own gain. All these people have inserted themselves into her life like parasites, and it’s not right. I’m done with them.”

Samantha’s job as a DJ involves her going to clubs, and Lindsay doesn’t have to go with her. Lindsay is an adult and she’s actually been pretty quiet since she started dating Samantha. Besides, Lindsay has been a public figure for several years now, she should be able to tell her genuine friends apart from the groupies by now.

In fact, the people trading most off of Lindsay’s fame seem to be her parents. Her mother has a reality show, her father writes a column for OK! Magazine and was pimping a reality show about helping troubled teens.

Michael claimed the family issues he needs to resolve is his father’s cancer battle, but I’d say it is related to his upcoming paternity case. If I was Michael Lohan I’d be very carefully checking the math to see if I could afford another child and another wife.

Erin Muller is a little hard to google, although I think she’s this poker playing model who thinks that Brittany Murphy is an idol. I’m not sure how long she and Michael Lohan have been dating, but he was released from prison in March 2007 so it’s probably safe to assume they met after that.
