Long Island based charity, the “Mingling Moms Organization”, honours Dina Lohan, mother of troubled starlet Lindsay Lohan, with their “Mother of the Year” award at a dinner to benefit breast cancer research held at Carlyle on the Green in Bethpage, New York on Tuesday night.

Dina showed off her award proudly, but ended up hiding behind it at one point as the press brought up a recent news story involving none other than daughter Lindsay. According to the New York Post, Lindsay is being accused of stealing an $11 000 blonde mink coat from Columbia co-ed Masha Markova. “Masha Markova, 22, believed she had forever lost the prized jacket - a gift from her grandmother - while attending a private birthday party at 1Oak in the Meatpacking District in the early-morning hours of Jan. 26. Two weeks later, Markova flipped through the February 11 edition of OK! magazine and couldn’t believe her eyes - Lohan was photographed the night of Jan. 26 wearing the very same fur coat.

The coat has since been returned to Markova and Lohan’s spokeswoman did not return calls.

But the story doesn’t end there. Beating out all other media publications, The Insider nabbed an exclusive interview with the pouty blonde. Interested? See the interview HERE.
