Lindsay Lohan emerged as a passionate Remain supporter overnight after live-tweeting the results of the EU referendum, much to the delight of Brits during an increasingly tense night.

Lohan was closely following the BBC’s reporting in the early hours of the morning when she decided to add her own voice to the debate.

The actress became perturbed as results suggested a Brexit was looking increasingly likely and demanded to know what was “wrong" with areas voting to withdraw from the European Union, whilst thanking the Shetlands for their “pure hearted people” after a vote to Remain.

Lohan also took issue with the BBC's coverage of events and demanded to know why “this woman” was “speaking on people rather than TELLING us what happens if UK LEAVES?”

She had a stark warning for Brexiters about the future of Britain’s economy as initial forecasts showed the value of the pound had slumped to its lowest against the dollar since 1985, telling her followers the currency was “dropping as we breathe”.

Here are a few highlights of her Brexit commentary on free trade, the economy, the Queen and Sunderland:

Lohan rounded off her coverage with a selfie in Instagram and the caption “Remain”.

The Independent has contacted Lohan’s representative for comment.
