Report: Lady Gaga becomes a first-time mom

September 12, 2026

Lady Gaga and her fiancé, Michael Polansky, are said to have welcomed their first baby.

According to Page Six editors on Friday, the pop icon had recently become a mother.

They also shared an image of Gaga — born Stefani Germanotta — cradling a newborn in a baby carrier as she walked with Michael and a companion through Northern California.

Details about the baby’s sex, birth date, and name have not yet been released.

Representatives for Gaga and Polansky have not commented on the joyful news.

The Poker Face singer has kept a relatively low profile since concluding The Art of Personal Chaos concert run, in support of her eighth studio album, Mayhem, in April.

Gaga and venture capitalist Michael became engaged in April 2024 after dating for roughly four years.

In an ELLE UK interview published in January 2025, the A Star Is Born actress disclosed that she and her partner had been considering starting a family.

“It’s something Michael and I have discussed extensively — letting our children be individuals,” she said at the time. “Parenting is intense for kids entering the world, given how they’re steered toward certain thoughts, beliefs, and even meals… I simply want to let my children discover who they are.”

Additionally, Gaga revealed that her near-term future would revolve around “me, Michael, and our kids”.

“It’s funny; sometimes I fear people will call me dull these days, but truly, thank goodness I’m not chasing danger anymore. Thank goodness!” the 40-year-old smiled. “Because I used to live on the edge. I had no idea what could have happened to me living that way. So, on one hand, I think, ‘Oh man, snooze fest!’ But really, I’m incredibly grateful, because I’ve discovered a happiness and joy that feels true to who I am.”
