Lohan's dad plans to sell his secret daughter story

New York (ANI): Michael Lohan has turned to celebrity weekly magazines to help him with child-support payments if paternity tests prove that he's the father of 13-year-old Ashley Kaufmann. Lohan has approached both OK! and People magazines with the offer of his exclusive story, should paternity tests prove he's her biological father.

"He's approaching everyone to get the highest bid because, if he is the dad, he's going to need the money for back child support," The New York Post quoted an insider, as saying. Ashley's mother, Kristi Kaufmann, has claimed that she and Lohan had an affair in 1995 when he broke-up with his then-wife Dina Lohan.

Although the asking price for Lohan's story is in the 20,000 range, it seems like both the magazines are passing on the offer. A rep for People denied Lohan had approached the mag, and a rep for OK! said, 'We're not interested.'
