Furious Lohan blamed the channel’s staff for leaking the list she made as part of her recovery in the AA programme.
She told US show Watch What Happens Live: “You know what, I’m going to get serious for a second… That was actually my fifth step in AA at Betty Ford.
“And someone, when I was moving during the OWN show, must have taken a photo of it.
“And so that’s a really personal thing, and it’s really unfortunate.”

McFly’s Harry Judd enjoyed a fling with Lindsay when they both filmed Just My Luck.
In a 2012 interview with The Mirror, Harry was anything but discreet about the encounter, where they went to “second base”.
The band had dinner with the actress and then ended up at a club.
He recalled: “Under the staircase was a room, dimly lit with red lights.
“A bed in the middle, and on the bed a couple having sex, there for everyone to see. The kind of party bands should be going to.”
They ended up in Harry’s hotel at 4am, and “then things started to get a bit more serious” and “steamier”.
He went on: “One thing led to another. We moved from first base to second base, and then, just as I was about to seal the deal, Danny walked in, ‘Oh sorry, mate!’.”
