Michael Lohan, that paragon of celebrity fatherhood, is engaged to none other than Kate Major, the former Star reporter who famously—and oh-so-briefly—dated Jon Gosselin. “I'm very traditional, so I wanted him to talk to my father,” Major tells People; Lohan got Kate's dad’s blessing during an Easter visit—in a hot tub, no less. Both say they are “ecstatic,” Lohan in particular because Major “doesn’t come with baggage.”
Lohan tells Us he wanted to wait for the “situation with Lindsay to resolve” before making the announcement; no word, though, on said resolution. The wedding will likely be later this year at Oheka Castle in New York, Major says, adding that the couple’s 23-year age difference “has never been an issue.” And no, Gosselin hasn’t sent his congratulations, she says: “Jon and I don’t speak.”
