Bette Midler has expressed regret for not suing Lindsay Lohan for pulling out of a sitcom they were set to work on together. The actress and singer revealed that Lohan's departure after just one episode of the sitcom "Bette" led to its eventual cancellation. Midler shared that in hindsight, she should have taken legal action against Lohan for her abrupt exit, which contributed to the show's failure [1-15]. Despite the setback of Lohan leaving, Midler humorously blamed the situation on the actress, joking that Lohan "ruined" the sitcom. This decision not to pursue legal action came after considerable contemplation on Midler's part, where she candidly discussed her dissatisfaction with how Lohan's actions impacted both the sitcom and her career [1-15]. The failed project with Lohan serves as a lesson for Midler, who has since reflected on how she would handle similar situations differently in the future [1-15].
