LINDSAY LOHAN's estranged father is in talks to undergo paternity testing as part of a dramatic U.S. TV reveal to clear him of allegations he fath ered an illegitimate child 15 years ago.
Michael Lohan's former mistress, Kristi Kaufmann, went public
with clai ms he's the father of her daughter Ashley in 2008 and the born again Chri stian has vehemently denied the allegations.
He told TMZ.com Kaufmann changed the child's birth certificate to featu re his last name.
Now, Lohan is negotiating a deal with producers of U.S. talk show Maury Povich, to undergo DNA testing for a TV segment which will prove once an d for all whether or not he fathered a lovechild.
When the matter first surfaced two years ago, when Kaufmann's child was 13, the DNA tests were delayed - but Lohan seemed keen to resolve the wh ole thing, stating, "I'll do whatever it takes to find out. Everyone will know the truth soon."
