The couple had also been the subject of marriage speculation.
Lady Gaga net worth: How much is the singer worth?
There is no officially confirmed public figure for Gaga's total net worth.
Celebrity wealth websites have estimated her fortune at around $300 million. Celebrity Net Worth currently lists that figure, while Parade also estimated her 2026 net worth at $300 million.
Forbes lists her among its highest-paid musicians, recording $52 million in 2025 earnings.
That means the $300 million figure should be treated as an estimate rather than a verified financial disclosure.
Lady Gaga's family life enters a new chapter
Gaga's first child marks a major change for a singer who has spent much of her adult life in the public eye. She has previously spoken about the tension between her highly public career and her hopes for a private family life.
