Lady Gaga and her fiance Michael Polansky have welcomed their first child together.
The Born This Way singer, 40, and the 42-year-old entrepreneur – who have been engaged since March 2024 – were recently spotted on a family walk with Gaga holding the baby, according to the New York Post’s Page Six.
Reports of the new addition to their family come after Gaga kept a low profile in recent months, last being seen in August when she took a selfie with a fan.
Gaga – who is known as Mother Monster to her fans – has frequently spoken of her desire to become a mother.
During an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert last year, she said: “I would like to do many things. All of these things are open. But what I really want is to be a mum. That’s my next starring role, I hope.”
And she told InStyle: “I will say I am very excited to have kids. I look forward to being a mum. Isn’t it incredible what we can do? We can hold a human inside and grow it. Then it comes out and it’s our job to keep it alive.”
She also spoke about her wishes for her future children, telling Elle.com: “Family – it’s like the roots of the tree. They grow long, and sometimes they’re mangled, and sometimes they’re full of water, and sometimes they’re thirsty. Family is what makes you who you are, and it also defines your need for change.
“I would want my children to understand that whatever my artistry means to them is totally up to them. I would never actually want to shape it or tell them how to think about me. Maybe other than that I just did my best. And tried to stay true to myself along the way. That’s something Michael and I have talked about a lot – allowing our kids to be their own people. It’s such an intense thing for kids coming into the world. And they’re told how to think and what to believe in and how to eat… I just kind of want to let my kids find out who they are.
“My kid might one day say, ‘Mum, why do you do these things? I saw a funny video of you dressed up.’ Most certainly that will happen. And you know, maybe it’s okay to say, ‘What do you think?'”
Gaga and Polansky were first linked in 2020 when they were photographed kissing in Las Vegas. They made their relationship Instagram official after being spotted together at the 2020 Super Bowl in Miami.
They quarantined together during the Covid-19 pandemic and in July 2024, Gaga revealed that she was engaged to Polansky when she introduced him to the French Prime Minister Gabriel Attal at the 2024 Paris Olympics as her “fiance”.
