Michael said Egor, 22, has been a positive influence on the star ever since the pair started dating in December last year, reported New York Post.
"Egor wants things to be in the right place for Lindsay and he's wise beyond his years. He has a lot of strong connections in Russia," Michael said.
Lindsay, 29, has struggled to land roles in recent years after her career was thrown into turmoil amid accusations of drink and drug abuse, as well as a spate of convictions for driving under influence and violating the terms of her probation, and a rehab stint.
Later paramedics were called to her hotel room to treat the star with exhaustion and dehydration.
The series of unfortunate incidents led to a career slump, but Lindsay's father hopes Egor will help turn his daughter's fortunes around.
"He's not a good influence, he's a great influence. He is grown up with money but he is not spoiled, he is not the kind of guy to just sit back and spend his money. She may be older than him, but Lindsay is younger at heart.
