    Earlier this year, Lady Gaga sparked engagement rumors when she was spotted wearing a large ring on her left hand.

    Then, in July, the singer fueled the speculation when she apparently referred to her partner, Michael Polansky, as her “fiancé” during a conversation with French Prime Minister Gabriel Attal at the Paris Olympics opening ceremony.

    Gaga first started dating Michael in 2020, but she has always kept their relationship pretty private .

    In 2021, the star made a rare comment about him in an interview with the Hollywood Reporter , where she called him her “whole life.”

    But now, in a new interview with Vogue , Gaga has pulled back the curtain on her and Michael’s romance for the first time — confirming that they are, in fact, engaged after he proposed to her in April following a day of rock climbing.

    Speaking to the publication, Gaga revealed that she first heard about Michael through her mom, Cynthia Germanotta, in 2019.

    For context, Cynthia runs Gaga’s nonprofit, the Born This Way Foundation, which was established in 2012. According to Vogue, Cynthia met Michael “through philanthropic overlap.”

    Gaga added: “My mom met him and she said to me: ‘I think I just met your husband,’ and I said: ‘I’m not ready to meet my husband!’ I could never have imagined that my mom found the most perfect person for me?”

    But the two didn’t cross paths until December 2019, when Gaga attended Napster cofounder Sean Parker’s 40th birthday party. Michael is a longtime friend of Sean's, and she admitted that she hoped to bump into him at the event.

    “I got invited and I said: ‘I wonder if Michael is going to be there,’ and my mom said yes, and so I went to the party and I kept asking for him and he finally came over to me and we talked for three hours,” Gaga explained. “We had the most amazing conversation.”

    Michael also revealed to the publication that almost immediately after he entered the party, somebody told him that Gaga was looking for him.

    “I didn’t know much about her and honestly wasn’t sure what to expect,” he admitted. “I was struck immediately by her warmth and openness — she was so genuinely curious about what my life was like growing up in Minnesota.”

    After weeks of talking on the phone, Gaga and Michael went on their first date "and just fell in love." Soon after, the COVID-19 pandemic hit.

    Michael ended up moving from his home in San Francisco to live with Gaga at her Malibu house during the lockdowns — meaning that they were able to “completely focus” on their growing relationship.

    “We had this amazing chapter of a weird kind of normalcy,” Michael recalled. “That’s essential for any relationship to develop in a real way — taking walks, making coffee, hanging out with the dogs, reading books together.”

    “I think she loved the chance to slow down,” he added in reference to the pandemic. “She’s been operating at an unfathomable level of intensity for years and it’s no secret it had caught up to her.”

    Discussing her decision to keep her relationship as private as possible, Gaga said: “His life and my life are very different. He’s a very private guy and he’s not with me for any other reason than that we are right for each other.”

    “What I want my fans to know is that I’m just, like, so happy. I’m healthy,” she added.

    And Michael is also incredibly supportive of his partner’s career, with Gaga revealing that he is the one who encouraged her to return to the pop genre for her upcoming seventh album.

    “Like anyone would do for the person they love, I encouraged her to lean into the joy of it,” Michael said. “On the Chromatica tour, I saw a fire in her; I wanted to help her keep that alive all the time and just start making music that made her happy.”
