Lady Gaga and her fiancé Michael Polansky have welcomed their first child, and details about the newborn have come to light thanks to a birth certificate cited by the outlet TMZ. According to the document, the couple had a daughter whom the artist and director named Rose Bin Polansky. Thus, the long-standing intrigue over the first child's sex and name, which the couple had kept private, was publicly resolved through official medical records.
Birth details
According to the certificate, the girl was born on June 9 at 11:19 p.m. at the Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, and the delivery was attended by Dr. Robert Katz. The couple publicly showed the newborn considerably later: on September 12, the singer was photographed in Northern California holding the baby during a walk with her fiancé and a friend. These images became the first visual confirmation that the lovers had become parents.
Where the unusual name came from
The origin of the name Rose has not been officially confirmed, however, journalists point to a large rose tattoo along her spine that Gaga got in honor of performing the song "La Vie En Rose" in the film "A Star Is Born." The middle name, Bin, may be a reference to the singer and activist Carl Bin, whose composition "I Was Born This Way," according to media reports, inspired the artist to create her hit "Born This Way." The singer herself has not yet commented on these interpretations.
Contradictory data
There are notable inconsistencies in the publications on the topic. First, the birth certificate indicates a date of June 9, whereas the public announcement of the birth and the first photos with the baby only appeared in September — a gap of several months that remains unexplained officially. Second, some sources (in particular, gazeta.ru) report that the couple's daughter was born "with the help of a surrogate mother," however, the original text and the birth certificate contain no such data, and this version has not been confirmed by Gaga's side. Both viewpoints are presented openly, and a final clarification from the artist has not yet been received.
Context of the couple's relationship
Lady Gaga and Michael Polansky got engaged in 2024, and in March 2026 the singer stated that they planned to marry "soon." In early September, reports of an alleged secret wedding appeared online, which were subsequently refuted: according to sources, the couple remains engaged. The birth of their daughter has thus become the main family event in their relationship at this point.
