Lady Gaga welcomes first child with fiancé Michael Polanski

Pop icon Lady Gaga, 40, has given birth to her first child with fiancé Michael Polanski, 42.

Lady Gaga, the 40-year-old pop superstar, has become a mother for the first time, sharing the news of her newborn with fiancé Michael Polanski, 42. The pair, whose romance was first reported in 2020, have largely shielded their personal life from the spotlight. Polanski, who leads the Parker Foundation, also sits on the board of the Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy.

The announcement follows Gaga’s earlier statements about wanting to start a family, including a 2020 interview with InStyle. Their engagement was publicly noted in July 2024 during a conversation with French former prime minister Gabriel Attal at the Paris Olympics. The birth adds a new chapter to Gaga’s multifaceted career in music and film.
