Lady Gaga recently opened up in a Vogue cover story about her engagement to Michael Polansky. The Grammy winner’s mother first met Polansky due to a philanthropic overlap and immediately felt that he was the man for her daughter. Despite Gaga’s initial thoughts of not being ready to meet her husband, she finally met Polansky at a birthday party held by Sean Parker. After talking for hours, they went on to have phone conversations for weeks before going on their first date. They eventually fell in love and began quarantining together in Malibu during the coronavirus pandemic, which Gaga described as a special time to focus on their relationship.
Polansky also shared his feelings about Gaga, mentioning how he was immediately struck by her warmth and openness. He described their time together during quarantine as an amazing chapter of normalcy, essential for any relationship to develop in a real way. Gaga has spoken highly of her partner, praising his intelligence, kindness, and the happiness he brings to her life. Polansky proposed to Gaga in April after a day spent rock climbing, which she confirmed during an outing in West Hollywood where she debuted a massive diamond ring.
Despite being engaged twice before, Gaga has insisted to fans that her relationship with Polansky is different. She revealed that they are right for each other despite their differences and credited him with helping her out of a dark place. Despite speculation about their engagement, the couple had actually been engaged for several months before publicly announcing the news. Gaga referred to Polansky as her fiancé during the Paris Olympics in July, and a source confirmed that they had shared the happy news with close family and friends right away but had wanted to keep the engagement private.
With her past relationships, Gaga had struggled for many years and found herself in a dark place until she met Polansky. She emphasized his willingness to confront her unhappiness and to truly get to know her at a deep level. Despite their differences, Gaga and Polansky have found a supportive and loving relationship that has helped both of them grow. The singer expressed gratitude for the time she was able to focus on their relationship, away from the spotlight of her career. The special chapter of normalcy during quarantine allowed them to connect on a deeper level through simple activities like taking walks, making coffee, and reading books together.
