Is Lindsay Lohan Ready For Life Outside Rehab?

Lindsay Lohan is set to leave rehab this weekend, it has been reported. The troubled star - who entered Utah's Cirque Lodge in August after being arrested on suspicion of driving under the influence - is nearing the end of her treatment for drug and alcohol addiction, according to a friend.

When asked where Lindsay, 21, was planning to go after her release, the friend told the New York Daily News newspaper: "I don't think she knows yet."

During her lengthy stay at the facility, Lindsay has been allowed out for day release to go shopping, hit the gym and even get her hair and nails done.

But according to reports, the Mean Girls star has not been a model patient, with stories of her being caught taking drugs and warned to stay clean or face being thrown out of the centre.

She was also believed to have been found having sex in a toilet cubicle with a male patient, as well as being reprimanded for being frequently late to meetings and refusing to do any chores or menial tasks such as washing up.



Lindsay entered the rehab centre following her arrest on July 24 after she crashed her car following a high-speed car chase in Santa Monica. She was in possession of cocaine when she was taken into custody.

It was her third stint in rehab. She previously stayed at the Wonderland and Promises facilities in Los Angeles.

Howerver in a related development, Lindsay Lohan's mother has denied reports that the troubled actress is set to check out of a rehabilitation center later this week, it was reported Thursday.

Dina Lohan told the Access Hollywood television show in an email that the 21-year-old would stay in the exclusive Utah facility where she has been undergoing treatment for drug and alcohol addiction.

"Not true," Lohan told Access Hollywood in an e-mailed response to reports that her daughter was leaving rehab soon, insisting she was "staying in Utah."



A source close to Lohan meanwhile told People magazine: "Lindsay is not leaving Cirque Lodge in Utah any time soon. She has a few more weeks to grow and develop, and she is doing great."

Lohan was checked into the facility in early August. It followed two separate incidents earlier this year where she was arrested for drink-driving.
