After a short cameo Saturday Night LifeLady Gaga was spotted holding hands with her boyfriend Michael Polanski as they headed to the after-show party at L’Avenue with the rest of the cast.

Polanski was wearing a dark brown jacket over a black T-shirt, black jeans and blue sneakers. The couple held hands as they walked past the cameras.
The music artist and tech mogul initially called it quits after three years together but appear to remain friends. Last month there were rumors that they might be on the mend after they were spotted together for the first time in over a year. The reason for their initial split was reportedly because Gaga was ready for marriage and children, but the 45-year-old executive was not.
