Lady Gaga reveals exactly when fiance proposed admitting she ‘wanted to keep it secret’
LADY Gaga has told how she wanted to keep her April Fools engagement under wraps, but her secret was outed at the Paris Olympics in July, when the diamond sparkler was caught on camera.
The US megastar who has found love with Harvard businessman Michael Polansky, is a guest at the BBC for tonight’s Graham Norton show.
As well as discussing her latest role as Harley Quinn in the film, The Joker Folie a Deux, Gaga also revealed that her engagement happened earlier than people realise.
She said: “He proposed on April 1st and I thought he was joking. Then when we went to the Olympics we were filmed saying hello to the Prime Minister and I was caught on camera, saying, “This is my fiancé. I had wanted to keep it secret.”
The pop-star turned actress has had a rocky road on the ride to love, but it seems she has finally found the one.
After her last engagement to Christian Carino broke down, the star met Polanksy and the pair first went public with their romance at the Miami super bowl in 2020.
During the Covid 19 pandemic, they were said to have quarantined together at her Miami home and in 2021 she told the Hollywood Reporter: “My dogs and the man I love are my whole life.”
The couple are said to share a passion for charitable work, as Michael is a philanthropist and is said to be developing an app for Gaga’s Born this Way Foundation.
Indeed, earlier this week, Gaga told Buzzfeed that her main goal now was to start a family, she said:” I am so happy to be in love and I am so excited to have a family.”
Lady Gaga whose real name is Stefani Germanotta, will appear on the BAFTA winning talk show, alongside guests including, Hollywood movie star Demi Moore and Oscar-nominated actor Colin Farrell in tonight’s A-list special.
