Lindsay Lohan's dad suffered heart attack

Lindsay Lohan's dad has suffered a heart attack.

The outspoken father - who was taken to hospital last week after suffering chest pains during a celebrity boxing match - was rushed to St Francis Hospital in New York yesterday afternoon (16.03.10) after complaining of feeling unwell, where it has since been confirmed by his journalist girlfriend Kate Major, that he suffered a heart attack.

She said: "He was short of breath all day. His blood pressure skyrocketed. Right now they've told him it looks like he had a minor heart attack but they are still doing tests on him."

Michael, 49, had been in Miami making an appearance on the US 'Geraldo' show and had also been participating in a photo shoot with the reality TV family, the Kardashian's.

Kate added: "Michael was in Miami. We just flew back to New York last night. But he didn't feel well all day today."

Michael - who was recently blasted by his actress daughter for suggesting she should be in rehab - is reportedly scheduled to have a procedure to clear his arteries on Friday (19.03.10).

Lindsay is currently in Los Angeles, although it is not known whether she has been in contact with her father.
