Pop star Lady Gaga has welcomed her first child with fiance Michael Polansky, according to US media.

The 40-year-old Bad Romance singer, whose real name is Stefani Germanotta, began dating Polansky in 2020 and became engaged to the entrepreneur in 2024.

A source confirmed the child’s birth to Page Six
and People, but no additional details about the baby, including its name, sex or date of birth, were immediately available.

The musician affectionately referred to as “Mother Monster” by her fans has spoken in recent years about her desire to have a child.

She wrapped up her most recent world tour, the Mayhem Ball, in April, and her latest album Mayhem garnered multiple Grammy nominations, winning the award for Best Pop Vocal Album earlier this year.
