Lady Gaga's Says Her Fiancé Helped 'Change' Her Life

Lady Gaga says her mental health has come a long way and she has her fiancé Michael Polansky to thank for that.

In an interview with Vogue, the "Joker: Folie à Deux" star, 38, said she had never "met anyone like Michael." He is smart but also kind, she gushed.

"And his life and my life are very different," she said. "He's a very private guy, and he's not with me for any other reason than that we are right for each other."

But Gaga said she can't hide how he makes her feel. "I think what I want my fans to know is that I'm just, like, so happy," she added.

According to Gaga, her last 2020 album "Chromatica" marked "an absolutely horrible time" for her mental health and she was
"a really dark place."

"I struggled for, like, many years before that. But everything started to change," said Gaga, explaining that she had a "real friend" in Polansky. "A real friend who saw the ways in which I was unhappy and why. And he wasn't afraid to truly hold my hand and get to know me on a very deep level."

Polansky has also helped her find balance. "The missing piece in my life was having real love," said Gaga.

Aww!

And the cherry on top is that Polansky feels the same. The two started dating after meeting at a friends party where they just "just fell in love." Then when the COVID-19 pandemic then hit, they got even closer, spending time at Gaga's Malibu home.

"I'd been so focused on my career since I was a teenager," she told Vogue. "And the gift of that time was that I got to completely focus on my relationship. I met this totally supportive, loving human being who wanted to get to know me – outside of Lady Gaga."

About that time, Polansky added, "We had this amazing chapter of a weird kind of normalcy, that's essential for any relationship to develop in a real way – taking walks, making coffee, hanging out with the dogs, reading books together..."

Gaga previously dated musician Lüc Carl and fashion designer Matthew "Dada" Williams and was engaged to actor Taylor Kinney in 2015 and also talent agent Christian Carino in 2018.

"I kind of thought I was going to have to do this all by myself – forever. And that was really scary," said Gaga. And now, it seems, she has finally found the one.

"And I don't have to do this alone anymore," she told Vogue.
