US media reports say the pop superstar and Polansky have welcomed their first child together, marking a long-awaited milestone for the Grammy winner, who has repeatedly spoken about her hopes of becoming a mother. PEOPLE reported that a source confirmed the baby’s arrival, while Page Six initially broke the news. Gaga’s representatives had not publicly commented on the report.
The reported arrival comes after years of Gaga publicly discussing her plans for motherhood. In 2019, the singer spoke about her hopes for the future and said she wanted to make room for children in her life.
A year later, she opened up further about the possibility of starting a family, telling InStyle, “I will say I am very excited to have kids. I look forward to being a mom.”
Her desire for motherhood remained strong as her career continued to expand across music and film. During a 2025 appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, Gaga made her priorities clear, saying, “What I really want is to be a mom. That’s my next starring role, I hope.”
Gaga’s relationship with Polansky began publicly in 2020. The pair were photographed together around the start of that year before their relationship became social-media official. They later spent time together during the COVID-19 lockdown, a period that reportedly brought them closer.
Gaga publicly confirmed their engagement in 2024 when she referred to Polansky as her fiancé while attending the Paris Olympics. Since then, the couple have largely kept their personal life away from the spotlight while supporting each other’s work.
Polansky has been involved in philanthropy through the Parker Institute for Cancer Immunotherapy, while Gaga has continued her advocacy work through the Born This Way Foundation.
For Gaga, whose fans have long called her “Mother Monster,” the reported arrival of her first child adds a deeply personal meaning to a nickname that has followed her throughout her career.
The music icon now faces one of the biggest roles of her life as she begins motherhood alongside Polansky.
