"It was an emotional reunion...there were hugs, kisses and even a few tears when Michael and Lindsay first saw each other," a source with knowledge of the meeting told RadarOnline.com.

According to the website, the two met soon after 1 p.m. on Sunday at the Betty Ford Center in Rancho Mirage, Calif., where Lohan is receiving treatment.

"Lindsay met Michael at Betty Ford and the pair spent hours together... it was not a fleeting encounter, this appeared well-planned in advance," the source said.

According to reports, the reunion was then followed by a trip to a nearby street fair and then a jewelry store.

When contacted by RadarOnline about the reunion, Michael Lohan said, "I have pledged not to comment about anything relating to my daughter. "However, what I will say is that I am an incredibly proud father tonight. My daughter is progressing extraordinarily well."

TMZ reports that the two are trying to take "a whole new approach" to their relationship, and may reunite again.
