Overview
- The birth certificate, reported by TMZ on Thursday, Sept. 17, lists the child as Rose Bean Polansky and records a June 9 birth at 11:19 p.m. at Cedars‑Sinai Medical Center.
- The document names Dr. Robert Katz as the delivering physician, a detail published after outlets confirmed the couple had quietly welcomed a child.
- Public confirmation began on Sept. 11 when Page Six published photos of Gaga holding an infant during a Northern California walk, which sparked wider reporting.
- Reports tie the first name Rose to Gaga’s performance of “La Vie En Rose” and the middle name Bean to activist Carl Bean, but those name-origin explanations come from unnamed insiders and are not independently verified.
- Gaga and Michael Polansky have not commented publicly; the couple remain engaged and have said in past interviews that parenthood is a priority for Gaga, which may explain their choice to keep the birth private.
