Another simply declared, “Gaga is engaged,” while a surprised fan exclaimed, “OMG THEY’RE GETTING MARRIED!!?? This is so special ❤️ I’m so happy and proud.” One longtime observer of Gaga’s love life added, “Oh boy, it’s her 3rd engagement. Hope this is the one ❤ ��”
However, not all reactions were positive. Critics have voiced their opinions, with some questioning Polansky’s suitability. One remarked, “She’s too pretty to be with him 😂❤️.” Another criticized, “You’re so iconic and then have a boyfriend like this?! With no clothing sense—who is she kidding?”

Another skeptic added, “Her boyfriend makes her look really bad and lowers her status. Is she okay?” Amidst the mixed reactions, some fans have defended the couple, insisting, “There’s something special she saw in him that we don’t see!”
Gaga sparked engagement rumors back in April when fans noticed a stunning new addition to her jewelry collection—a massive diamond ring prominently displayed on her left ring finger.
This eye-catching bling ignited speculation about an engagement, especially since the multi-Grammy Award winner has been dating Polansky since 2019.
Even as their love blossoms, the couple has been subjected to breakup rumors. In March 2023, reports surfaced claiming that Gaga and Polansky had parted ways due to differences over marriage and children.
Despite these claims, a source close to the couple mentioned that their split was amicable and they remained friends. But just when it seemed like their relationship was over, Gaga and Polansky made a public comeback.
