Lady Gaga, Michael Polansky welcome first child through surrogate

American singer Lady Gaga and her fiancé, Michael Polansky, have reportedly welcomed their first child together through a surrogate.

According to TMZ, the couple’s daughter, Rose Bean Polansky, was born on June 9 at Cedars Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.

The 40-year-old singer and Polansky have largely kept details of their family life private, making the birth of their first child a significant development for the couple.

A birth certificate reportedly obtained by TMZ revealed the newborn’s name, sex and details surrounding her birth.

The baby was reportedly delivered by Dr Robert Katz, an obstetrician and gynaecologist who has also delivered the daughter of musicians Ciara and Russell Wilson.

The name Rose has a personal connection to Lady Gaga, whose maternal grandmother was Veronica Rose ‘Ronnie’ Ferrie Bissett.

The singer also has “La Vie En Rose”, the title of her song from A Star Is Born, tattooed along her spine.

Gaga and Polansky have been together since 2019

Lady Gaga, whose real name is Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, began dating Polansky in 2019. The couple became engaged in April 2024.

The report does not establish why the couple chose to have their child through surrogacy.

Gaga has previously spoken publicly about living with fibromyalgia, a condition associated with widespread pain and fatigue, although the report does not state that the condition influenced their decision.

The arrival of Rose Bean Polansky marks a new chapter for Gaga and Polansky as they begin parenthood together.
