Lady Gaga Opens Up About Motherhood and Life with Michael Polansky: ‘Being a Mom is What I Want Most’
Lady Gaga and Michael Polansky are gearing up for the next chapter in their love story. The pop superstar and her businessman partner, who have been together since late 2019, revealed in a Rolling Stone interview that marriage and children are on the horizon.
How It All Began
Gaga and Polansky were introduced by her mother, who was impressed by him from the start. The couple got engaged in April 2024, and their relationship has grown steadily over the past six years. Gaga credits Polansky with seeing her for who she truly is, not just her stage persona.
“Being in love with someone that cares about the real me made a very big difference,” she said. She added that he always calls her by her real name, Stefani, emphasizing that he loves her as a person, not just as Lady Gaga.
Wedding Plans Are Happening Soon
The couple confirmed that a wedding is definitely on the cards, though they aren’t planning anything overly elaborate. With their busy schedules, they are considering tying the knot during one of Gaga’s tour breaks or shortly after.
Polansky said, “We have these breaks, and they’re tempting. It’s like, ‘OK, can we get married that weekend?’ We don’t want a really big wedding, but we want to enjoy it. In a lot of ways, we already feel married, so it’s not like it’s gonna change much.”
Parenthood is Next
Alongside marriage, the couple is also planning to start a family. Gaga expressed how much she looks forward to motherhood:
“Being a mom is the thing I want the most,” she said. “And he’s gonna be a beautiful father. We’re really excited about that.”
Her desire to become a mother is partly inspired by her experiences with her godsons, Elton John and David Furnish’s children. She hopes to create a family life where her identity as Lady Gaga and her personal life can coexist naturally.
A Love Built on Authenticity
The singer described how important Polansky’s presence has been in her life. “Being in love with someone who cares about the real me made a very big difference,” Gaga said. She admitted that learning to be herself with someone else was a process, but Polansky has made it effortless by appreciating her for who she is, not just her fame.
What Fans Can Expect
The couple’s love story shows that even amidst fame and busy careers, authenticity, love, and family planning remain at the heart of their relationship. Fans can look forward to seeing both the wedding and the couple’s journey into parenthood in the coming years.
