How Lady Gaga Went From Mother Monster to Welcoming Baby With Michael Polansky
Lady Gaga, the iconic "Mother Monster" herself, and her fiancé of over two years, Michael Polansky, have officially welcomed their first child together. This exciting news comes six years after the couple first began dating.
Motherhood has long been on the Grammy winner's mind. In October 2025, Gaga shared, "I would like to do many things. All of these things are open. But, what I really want is to be a mom. That's my next starring role, I hope." While the 40-year-old, whose real name is Stefani Germanotta, initially felt "a lot of apprehension" about becoming a parent, she was also "excited to be a mom." She emphasized her desire to allow her children to discover their own paths, stating in 2025, "The thing that’s the most important to me is to not force my children to live a life that they are not choosing. So the more that we can give them space to discover who they are on their own, that’s the thing that I believe in the most." Gaga added, "If our children only understand Mommy’s job, that’s a very narrow view of life. There’s so much in the world, and I want them to be able to choose for themselves who they want to be." She also pondered how she could maintain her career passion while "making more space for other things."
