Lady Gaga has previously described becoming pregnant after she said she was raped by a music producer at 19 and experiencing a 'total psychotic break' years later, separating two traumatic periods that are sometimes conflated in accounts of her mental health journey.
The singer gave her most detailed account in the 2021 Apple TV+ series The Me You Can't See, after first speaking publicly about the alleged assault in 2014. Her comments have returned to attention amid recent reports that Gaga and her fiancé, Michael Polansky, have welcomed their first child. Neither Gaga nor her representative publicly confirmed the reports when they emerged.
