  • Her date has since been revealed as Michael Polansky, investor and CEO of the Parker Group, and their romance has continued into 2020.
  • From relaxing in the sun in Miami to self-isolating in the same house during the pandemic, Gaga and Polansky have continued to build their relationship together.

In Lady Gaga's electro-pop song "Stupid Love," from her newly released album "Chromatica," she sings, "All I ever wanted was love." Five months into her relationship with investor and entrepreneur Michael Polansky, it looks like the musician got what she asked for.

After Gaga's split from talent agent Christian Carino in February 2019, the singer reportedly wanted to take things slow, a source told Entertainment Tonight. And while her intention was to keep things light with Polansky, they were "getting serious," according to the source.

"Gaga is really getting serious with her boyfriend and the chemistry is undeniable. At first she wanted to keep it low key and quiet because she had just gotten out of a relationship and thought taking it slow would be good, but they had an immediate connection, so it was tough to keep under wraps. They were spending so much time together, she finally decided to post on Instagram to make it official," the source said.

They added that she "wasn't expecting to get so involved so quickly" but "started telling her friends she was completely in love with him."

"Anyone that has spent any time with them can see the connection. They are completely smitten. Her friends haven't seen her this happy in years," the source said, adding, "It didn't take long for her friends to adore him too."

While both the businessman and the musician both have packed calendars, the source explained that they're "supportive" of each other's schedules.

"He can often work remotely so even travels with her," the source said.
