In April, Lady Gaga was spotted flaunting a large diamond ring on her finger, which fueled speculation about an impending wedding. Though it wasn’t an official announcement at the time, her recent comment has put the rumors to rest. In a TikTok video shared by French Prime Minister Gabriel Attal, Gaga can be heard introducing Polansky as “my fiancé,” confirming the engagement. The “Bloody Mary” singer, who has been engaged twice before, performed “Mon Truc en Plumes” at the Paris 2024 Olympics to honor French ballet dancer and singer Zizi Jeanmaire. Prior to her relationship with Polansky, she was engaged to “Chicago Fire” actor Taylor Kinney and talent agent Christian Carino, though neither engagement lasted.
Lady Gaga and Michael Polansky’s romance began in late 2019. Their relationship first caught public attention when they were seen sharing intimate moments at a New Year’s Eve party in Las Vegas in 2020. Shortly after, they made their relationship public with a PDA-filled weekend in Miami, attending the Super Bowl together. Since then, the couple has kept their love life relatively private, but sources describe them as “inseparable” and “like a married couple” even before their engagement.
In 2021, Gaga performed at President Joe Biden’s inauguration, with Polansky by her side to support her. A source told PEOPLE at the time, “Gaga had a blast at the inauguration and was in the best spirits. She is grateful for Michael’s support and loves being with him”.
Lady Gaga’s engagement to Michael Polansky marks the beginning of a sparkling new chapter for the star, one that fans worldwide are eagerly celebrating.
