(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Lindsay Lohan's mother has slammed her ex-husband for attempting to stage an intervention with the actress.

Michael Lohan showed up to Lindsay's Beverly Hills, California home on Friday with "several others", concerned she had relapsed in her sobriety, according to TMZ.

Police were called to the scene and the patriarch was asked to leave.

The Mean Girls star, who is estranged from her father, has not issued comment on the incident.

However, her mother Dina has spoken out to slam her ex-husband's "extreme antic".

"This sole act by my ex was not an intervention nor was this extreme antic sanctioned by any member of Lindsay's family or her professional team of handlers," Dina told the website.

"It's all about her father obsessed with making a name for himself in the news once again. It's sad and I hope he stops masquerading as her father in public and starts acting like one in private," she continued.

Dina's statement marks the first time she has spoken out since police were called to her New York home after a verbal dispute with Lindsay earlier this month.

No charges were filed and Lindsay said she regretted the incident. (C) Cover Media
