Lady Gaga 'in her element' as a mom
Lady Gaga has embraced her new life as a mother and couldn't be happier.
Lady Gaga is "in her element" as a mother.
The 40-year-old pop star and her fiancé Michael Polansky welcomed daughter Rose into the world via a surrogate in June and the Bad Romance hitmaker is said to be "loving" life out of the spotlight with her family at their home in Northern California.
A source told Us Weekly magazine: “She is so incredibly happy and in her element as a mother.
"[Their home] is a peaceful and perfect place for the baby.
"[Gaga is at ease] in a place with so much nature and beauty around her. It’s the perfect setting. She loves it in Northern California. They are in their element."
Though the A Star Is Born actress' life now is “vastly different than it was during her tour”, when she was "so crazy busy", Gaga couldn't be happier and is devoted to her daughter.
The insider said: "She doesn’t want to miss anything with Rose - feeding her, rocking her. She is absolutely in love."
Although Gaga kept her motherhood plans secret, she had "planned it so she would have time off in advance."
The insider said: “All she really revealed was that she needed to carve out some personal time. It was not described what that personal time was for.
"[She and Michael] haven’t talked about the surrogacy journey with a lot of people. They’re just grateful everything worked out.”
It was previously reported the Born This Way singer is keen for Rose to have a "normal childhood".
A source told the New York Post's Page Six column: “Gaga and Michael have really been enjoying their little family bubble. They’ve started taking Rose on little outings together, but for the most part, they’re keeping things very private.
“[Gaga is] fiercely protective of her daughter and very particular about who she allows into their inner circle and around the baby.
“She has always valued her privacy, but that’s taken on a whole new level now that she’s a mom.
“She wants Rose to have as normal a childhood as possible, away from all the attention that comes with her fame.”
“Gaga has always been such a strong, powerful woman, but becoming a mom has brought out this incredibly soft, emotional side of her. She’s embracing every moment of it, and the people closest to her can see just how much this new chapter means to her.”
A birth certificate obtained by TMZ recently revealed the newborn's name is Rose Bean Polansky, and she was delivered by Dr Robert Katz on June 9 at 11.19pm at Cedars-Sinai Medical Centre in Los Angeles.
An insider told People that Rose may have been inspired by Edith Piaf's song La Vie En Rose, which Gaga covered in the 2018 romantic musical film A Star Is Born, while Bean could have been a nod to singer and activist Carl Bean, who inspired her 2011 smash-hit track Born This Way.
And a separate source told the publication that she and Michael "beam when they talk about being parents".
News broke that the couple were parents last month, when the New York Post's Page Six shared pictures of Gaga - known as Mother Monster to her fans - and Michael on a family walk in Northern California, with the Poker Face hitmaker carrying their bundle of joy in a sling/carrier.
