Lady Gaga and Michael Polansky's love story started before they even met. Gaga's mother had met Polansky at a charity event and felt she had met her daughter's future husband. Gaga also admitted that her mother's comment had initially surprised her, as she was not ready for that step.
The duo officially met in late 2019 at Sean Parker's 40th birthday party in Los Angeles, where they spoke for three hours. Polansky later shared that he was immediately struck by her warmth, openness, and genuine curiosity about his childhood in Minnesota. The pair was first romantically linked on New Year's Eve 2019, when they were photographed kissing in Las Vegas.
They made their relationship public in February 2020 during Super Bowl weekend in Miami, with Gaga posting a photo from a yacht saying they had a great time. Their bond deepened during the COVID-19 pandemic when they quarantined together at Gaga's house.
In 2021, Michael Polansky supported Lady Gaga at President Joe Biden's inauguration. Unlike her past high-profile romances, Gaga kept this one private. She had described him as the love of her life in 2020. Lady Gaga later explained that she had never met anyone like Michael, calling him extremely smart, kind, and private, and emphasizing that they were together because they were truly right for each other.
Polansky, a Harvard graduate and tech entrepreneur who co-founded Outer Biosciences, also became her creative partner, co-writing songs like Blade of Grass and Disease on her 2025 album Mayhem. They got engaged on April 1, 2024, during a rock-climbing trip, after Gaga suggested he propose with a blade of grass. Lady Gaga confirmed the engagement in July 2024 at the Paris Olympics when she introduced Michael as her fiancé to the French Prime Minister.
