Pop star Lady Gaga has apparently confirmed that she is now engaged to talent agent, Christian Carino. The 'Poker Face' singer revealed the news during a speech at Elle's 25th Annual Women in Hollywood Celebration earlier this week.
As she gave an emotional speech, wiping away a tear, Lady Gaga said, "Everybody on table five, my fiancé Christian, all the loved ones in my life who take care of me every day..."
Christian Carino, who is a talent agent, has been in a low-key relationship with the mega pop star since at least last year. The couple were first spotted together in January 2017. And although Lady Gaga has been spotted with a large engagement ring for several months, this is the first time that she has confirmed their relationship status.
