Lindsay Lohan’s first little bundle of joy is almost here, and the actress will in fact be havin’ a boy … TMZ has learned.

Sources with direct knowledge tell us Lindsay and her husband, Bader Shammas, are expecting the little dude, and pretty soon — we’re told she’s very close to giving birth.

As we first reported, Lindsay’s mother, Dina, will actually be by her side in Dubai for the birth … and some of Lindsay’s siblings will also be overseas around the same time as the birth to meet their new nephew.

Remember, the “Freaky Friday” star made the expecting announcement back in March … with a swarm of support from fans and friends online. Lindsay and Bader spent some time with her family in April — marking the first time she had been with her mom and other members of her fam all together in at least 7 years.

As for the happy couple, they got married last year after sparking a romance just before the pandemic … and now the 2 have something very exciting to look forward to very soon.

We’ve reached out to Lindsay’s family, but there was no comment.

Lindsay Lohan has red hair, and freckles everywhere, including on her irises, where they collect like sunspots on a molten green background. The ones on her face, though, are disappearing by the second: Her makeup artist, the freckle-less Kristofer Buckle, is applying liquid foundation to her cheeks. Lohan’s mother sits a few inches away, offering an occasional anecdote from The Real Housewives or a makeup tip, like maybe add a little highlighter along the jawline, make the chin really pop?

In brief, Lohan is a 36-year-old actor who has been working for the vast majority of her life. In truth, that does not even begin to describe her. Beholding Lindsay Lohan inspires a range of reactions that may depend on the beholder’s birth year. To broad swathes of the millennial population, who met an 11-year-old Lohan in Nancy Meyers’s The Parent Trap and watched her in subsequent Disney vehicles, she is a childhood best friend who lives behind a screen. We may have lost touch, but we are always happy to see her. To those who worship the media sensations of the 2000s, she is more like a deity, one-third of a kind of unholy trinity with Paris Hilton and Britney Spears.

And maybe that’s why, to generations who were more attuned to Lohan’s tabloid lore than they were to her onscreen performances, she inspires less than reverence. They will never understand: That’s our girl. Always has been, forever will be.

It may please every age demographic to know that by all accounts, including her own, Lindsay Lohan is the happiest she has ever been. And at some point in the near future, that happiness is scheduled to be eclipsed by an even more profound happiness: Lindsay Lohan is pregnant.

She bounces around the set of this photo shoot, littering the studio with smiles. The sunlight pouring across the studio floor threatens a comparison to Lohan’s own radiance. Lohan was surprised and delighted to disembark in New York with a fresh baby bump. “I popped!” she says. “She popped!” Everybody keeps saying so. And it is true: Even swaddled in a white robe, the bump has presence.

It will be a short stay in New York, but not as short as it could have been. Lohan has been filming for a secret (to me) project, plus this cover shoot, and then planned to skip town. Instead, though, she tacks on an extra weekend to spend time with her family. The Lohans are New Yorkers. There is dinner at The Waverly Inn one night, and a baby shower the next morning, attended by family and friends. Tracey Cunningham, the colorist, is there — Lohan is a natural redhead, but Cunningham has been toning and shading, occasionally blackening and bleaching, the star’s hair for well over a decade.

Twenty years later, Lindsay Lohan and Jamie Lee Curtis are in talks to reunite for a sequel to the hit body-swap comedy “Freaky Friday.”

The sequel is in the works at Disney, with Lohan and Curtis expected to reprise their roles as mother-daughter duo Anna and Tess Coleman. Elyse Hollander, whose work has been featured on the Black List, is penning the script.

Based on Mary Rodgers’ 1972 novel of the same name, the story was adapted for the screen twice before the 2003 film — in 1976 starring Barbara Harris and Jodie Foster, and in 1995 with Shelley Long and Gaby Hoffman. But the Lohan-Curtis version found the most success, scoring over $160 million at the box office.

Rumors started circulating about a potential sequel in February, when Curtis posted a photo of her and Lohan on Instagram with the caption, “It’s Friday. I’m just sayin! Freaky fingers crossed!”

“It’s going to happen,” Curtis elaborated in an interview with Variety at the Producers Guild Awards on Feb. 26. “Without saying there’s anything officially happening, I’m looking at you in this moment and saying, ‘Of course it’s going to happen.’ It’s going to happen.”

The news was revealed in a New York Times interview with Lohan and Curtis celebrating the 20th anniversary of the 2003 film, directed by Mark Waters, which follows a mom and daughter who wake up one Friday morning to find they’ve swapped bodies.

“As I went around the world with ‘Halloween Ends,’ people wanted to know if there was going to be another ‘Freaky Friday,’” Curtis told the New York Times. “Something really touched a chord. When I came back, I called my friends at Disney and said, ‘It feels like there’s a movie to be made.’”

Lohan added, “Jamie and I are both open to that, so we’re leaving it in the hands that be. We would only make something that people would absolutely adore.”

First off we have a beautiful layout by Claudia. She was so kind enough to make this layout and I can’t thank her enough. I sent her several different photoshoots and let her have full range of whatever pics she wanted to use and the result is just amazing.

I’ve also updated the gallery with all the appearances Lindsay has made on Saturday Night Live which think brings our gallery to well over 103k photos!

Lindsay Lohan is giving fans a glimpse into some of her pregnancy cravings since announcing she will be a mommy soon!

Lohan shared an IG Story today of a delicious-looking breakfast sandwich. The actress, currently pregnant with her first child, shared the short but sweet video making us all super hungry.

Lohan gave a close-up view of her sandwich. She slowly opens it, and it’s bacon, egg, and cheese on what looks like a brioche bun. The cheese is oozing out of the sandwich, and it seems like it was pressed in a panini press before being served to the Mean Girls actress.

She leaves her stamp of approval with an emoji whose tongue is sticking out.

A mere month ago, the Disney star shared with her followers what she and her husband, Bader Shamas, expect. She didn’t drop any specific details, but her announcement spoke volumes.

“We are blessed and excited! 🙏🤍👶🍼,” she wrote alongside a picture of a white onesie that reads “coming soon.”

The actress’s sister Ali Lohan shared a sweet message on Instagram congratulating her big sis on the fantastic news.

“@lindsaylohan, you are going to be the best mom in the universe, goes without saying. I just wanted to post because not that our family and friends don’t know already. You truly are an angel and one of the kindest, sweetest, most genuine, brilliant, beautiful, most talented people I know. I love you with all my heart. #wegotitfromourmama ❤️.”

Lohan thanked Ali, “Thank you, sis! I love you so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️” Shammas, who is not a public figure, hasn’t publicly said anything about his wife’s pregnancy but sources close to the family have shared that he is the best thing that has happened to the actress.

Lohan recently celebrated her first anniversary with Shammas and shared a sweet photo on Instagram to commemorate it. “April 3, 2023, ❤️ 1 year today ❤️ Happy Anniversary ☺️,” she and Hammas are standing on a seaside cliff embracing one another.

Lohan didn’t share how far along her pregnancy she is, but her mom Dina Lohan was willing to share. Back in Marc,h, shortly after Lohan announced her pregnancy, Dina spoke with People magazine, bragged about her oldest daughter’s first child,d, and even shared that she is showing.

“Lindsay has always loved kids because I love kids, and my mother loves kids; I’m one of four. We have a big family, so she’s always wanted, children. And she’s so maternal. Isabelle, her niece, runs to her when she sees her.”

She says that Lohan has been trying for some time now. “It’s the right time for her, and Bader is an angel. Her husband is so sweet, and they’re just so happy. They’re just pleased and ready.”

Dina shared that her daughter is “already showing,” and as for the due date, “I cannot tell, I will be in trouble!” jokes Dina.

Dina Lohan is bursting with pride at her daughter Lindsay Lohan’s pregnancy news.

The mother of four gushed about Lindsay’s exciting next chapter to PEOPLE on Wednesday, the day after the actress, 36, announced that she and husband Bader Shammas are expecting their first baby together.

“I’m literally over the moon. I’m so happy, I can’t stop smiling,” says Dina, 60. “It’s incredible. We’re just so excited. It’s just such a beautiful thing for my child! And I love babies. Who doesn’t?”

“My oldest baby is having a baby,” added Dina. “It’s so crazy. I’m in disbelief a little bit sometimes because you’re like, ‘Well… it makes you older clearly!’ ”

This will be Dina’s second grandchild. Her son Michael Lohan Jr., 35, and his wife Nina Ginsberg share one child together, daughter Isabel Scarlet — born in June 2021.

According to Dina, Lindsay has long wanted to be a mom. “Lindsay has always loved kids because I love kids and my mother loves kids; I’m one of four,” Dina says. “We have a big family, so she’s always wanted children. And she’s so maternal. Isabelle, her niece just runs to her when she sees her.”

The timing, Dina says, is “perfect” for Lindsay and her husband. “She’s been trying and then it happened, that little stick came up positive,” explains Dina. “It’s the right time for her and Bader is an angel. Her husband is so sweet and they’re just so happy. They’re just really happy and ready.”

“He’s so happy,” Dina noted, of Shammas.

Sources have told PEOPLE that Lindsay is due this summer.

While Dina would not confirm a due date (“I cannot tell, I will be in trouble!”), she did tell PEOPLE her daughter is already showing.

Dina also stayed mum on whether Lindsay was having a boy or girl, but says she does know what the baby’s sex will be. “The nursery’s all white, so that gives you nothing,” Dina jokes.

Lindsay and Shammas, 36, live in Dubai, though Dina says she’s in constant communication with her daughter. “She’s like, ‘Mommy, what does this mean? I feel like this. What is this?’ ” Dina says. “We do that every day, every morning. ‘How are you feeling?’ ”

The two are also in a group chat alongside Dina’s daughter Aliana Lohan and sons Michael and Dakota Lohan. “They text every day, like 10 times a day,” Dina says. “It’s so funny. Two of them will be talking and then someone else will be talking. And I’m the mom, so I try not to get involved in whatever’s happening.”

As for the birth plan, Dina also didn’t reveal much but insists she’ll be by Lindsay’s side. “I will be there,” she tells PEOPLE. “Absolutely. I’ll be there for sure.”

Lindsay announced she’s expecting her first baby with a sweet post on Instagram Tuesday.

Alongside a photo of a white onesie reading “coming soon,” the Parent Trap star wrote, “We are blessed and excited! 🙏🤍👶🍼,” and tagged financier Shammas in the post.

Commenting on the post, Dina said she is “over the moon” at the news that her daughter is going to be a mom. “Filled with so much JOY and happiness ❤️❤️,” she wrote in the comments section.

Lindsay’s longtime pal Paris Hilton, who welcomed a baby boy named Phoenix Barron in January, was also among those sharing their well wishes. “Congratulations love! So happy for you 🥹 Welcome to the Mommy Club!🥰,” wrote Hilton, 42.

And many of Lindsay’s 12.5 million followers couldn’t help but reference the famous “I’m not like a regular mom, I’m a cool mom” quote from her 2004 hit teen comedy Mean Girls in the comments.

“You’ll definitely be a cool mom. Congrats 💜💜💜,” wrote one while another said, “That’s so fetch. She’s not a regular mom, she’s a ‘cool mom.’ “
