Oprah Winfrey convinced Lindsay Lohan to call off a trip to Europe fearing the temptations would be too much and Lohan may relapse into her partying ways.
The actress recently left rehab after 90 days of court-ordered treatment last week and according to reports planned the European getaway while still recovering at the Cliffside Malibu centre in California, but has now cancelled the trip after receiving advice from the TV host.
'The Canyons' star was due to board a flight from New York City last night (05.08.13), however, she heeded Oprah's advice that the "temptation to relapse would be too great", say reports.
The talk show star is said to have called Lindsay several times over the past 24 hours telling her not to travel and to instead focus on her sobriety.
Oprah, 59, has taken a vested interest in the 27-year-old actress' well-being following her well-documented troubles.
Lindsay recently sat down with the star for her first TV interview following rehab, and after talking to her on camera, Oprah believes she is ready to move on with her life.
She told MTV: "I just interviewed her, and I was deeply moved by her desire to move forward in her life at this time ... I really do believe that she's ready."
Meanwhile, the 'Machete' actress has reportedly swapped Los Angeles for New York, feeling there is less temptation to fall into her old ways in the city, and is determined to stay clean.
A source said: "Lindsay is doing so well, she's back in New York City and is trying to figure out where she is going to live and what she is going to do next."
