Lindsay Lohan and her family are "safe" in Dubai and she is "praying for peace" after the city was shaken by Iranian missile launches.

The Hollywood actress, who resides in the United Arab Emirates with her husband Bader Shammas and their son Luai, reassured her followers on social media that she is okay following US and Israeli strikes on Iran that prompted retaliatory missile launches targeting sites in the UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and Bahrain.

Lindsay, 39, shared on Instagram: "Praying for peace. Stay safe everyone. God bless us all."

TMZ also confirmed that the actress and her family are safe.

Air defense systems in the UAE intercepted missiles heading towards Dubai, causing explosions across the city. Falling debris resulted in fires at two luxury hotels, the Burj Al Arab and Fairmont The Palm, and damage to the city's airport.

Local authorities reported three fatalities in the UAE and approximately a dozen injuries.

This news follows Lindsay Lohan's recent reflections on her life in Dubai, where she expressed to Vogue Arabia: "Being in Dubai is very grounding. I get to just spend time with my family. The city gives me a sense of being with what's most important."

She previously mentioned that Dubai is an ideal place to raise her son, stating to The Times newspaper: "[Dubai is] a safe place where we can just have a normal life, outside of what I call 'the noise.' [It is] where my husband and I can see what is right for our child. It's not about me anymore."

Lindsay emphasized that she leads "a very normal life" in Dubai, noting during an appearance on Live with Kelly and Mark: "It's just far away from Hollywood, and I live a very normal life. There's no worry about not being able to eat at a certain place due to paparazzi. I feel very safe... You can't take a picture of someone else if you're in a restaurant. You have to ask the person, which is a big difference from here."

Olivia Munn pays heartwarming tribute to late agent Tony Etz
Olivia Munn pays heartwarming tribute to late agent Tony Etz
Olivia Munn is heartbroken after the death of her literary agent Tony Etz. The 'Newsroom' star has paid tribute to her agent, who died on Monday (10.03.25) aged 64 after battling Chordoma, a rare form of bone cancer. She wrote on her Instagram Story: "This makes me incredibly sad. This is my literary agent who passed away from cancer yesterday; but that's not how he deserves to be remembered. "He should be remembered as one of the good guys in our business. They didn't get better and kinder than Tony. "Rest in love, my friend. My thoughts are with his sweet family." In a second post, Olivia - who previously battled breast cancer - simply added: "We all love you, Tony. F*** CANCER." Tony spent three decades at the Creative Artists Agency (CAA), with his career seeing him represent several directors, actors, producers and writers, while he was also involved in shows like 'Grey's Anatomy', 'House' and 'Jackass'. Almost two years ago, he requested to write his own obituary, and summed up his career in two lines. As quoted by Deadline, he said: "Over 30 years as a packaging agent, I was foundational in the sale of 'Jackass', 'House', 'Lost', 'Rescue Me', 'Big Little Lies', 'Jury Duty' and 'Tracker' and dozens of other shows. “And I have been a proud citizen of the best city state in the business.” He married fellow TV agent Nancy Etz in 1999 during her time at ICM, and she would join him at CAA seven years later, while they went onto have son Alex together. In a tribute, Peter Tolan - who co-created 'Rescue Me' and 'The Job' - hailed him as "deeply mourned" and "irreplaceable". He added: "He defended those of us who were fortunate enough to be his clients with a ferocity most of our own mothers would be unable to duplicate.” While longtime client Paul Attanasio said: "He had the sensitivity to understand what was unique to me (which I would constantly doubt) but then the breadth of vision to understand how that fit in the larger world (which I didn’t understand at all). "That was the secret ingredient in whatever I was able to accomplish in television. I couldn’t have done it without him.”
