It's official. Michael Lohan, 49, is dating again, and his new squeeze is his former pal Jon Gosselin's ex-flame Kate Major -- who at 26 -- is only three years older than Lohan's daughter Lindsay!
RadarOnline.com snapped the happy couple arm-in-arm and hugging at the Walt Whitman Shopping Mall in Huntington Station, New York, where the couple went ring shopping!
In these world exclusive photos, LiLo's dad Michael and former entertainment magazine reporter Kate even posed and joked during their low-key night-out.
While Michael denies, publically at least, that he's romantically involved with Kate, RadarOnline.com has learned he and Kate made two significant purchases over the weekend: a diamond ring and a new beige BMW X5.

Michael commented on the new romance and his whirl-wind weekend with Kate with this exclusive statement to RadarOnline.com: "Since Kate secured employment in NY we have been spending a lot of time together. After all we have been through together we have become very close friends. The diamond ring in question was a ring I went to get appraised for insurance purposes. The BMW X5 is a second car. As far as the tattoos are concerned, I got mine as a dedication to God, my family and a new beginning. Kate got her as a dedication to her mother."
