Lana Del Rey Marries Alligator Tour Guide Jeremy Dufrene: Report
Lana Del Rey, the acclaimed 39-year-old singer, has reportedly married professional alligator tour guide Jeremy Dufrene. The couple exchanged vows during a wedding ceremony held in Des Allemandes, Louisiana, on Thursday, as documented by photographs and video obtained by The Daily Mail. Attendees included members of Del Rey’s family, with her father Robert seen walking her down the aisle.
Earlier on Thursday, TMZ and People Magazine reported that Del Rey and Dufrene had obtained a marriage license from the Lafourche Parish Clerk of Court in Louisiana. This step confirmed the seriousness of their relationship and their commitment to each other.
Dufrene, 49, reportedly first met Del Rey in 2019 when he gave her and her friends a tour in Des Allemands. Their paths crossed again earlier in 2024 at the Hangout Music Festival in Gulf Shores, Alabama, where Del Rey headlined. Their reconnection seemed to rekindle a spark, setting the stage for their subsequent romance. Over the summer, Dufrene attended Del Rey’s headlining set at Leeds Festival in the UK, where the two were seen holding hands backstage, fueling media and fan speculation about their relationship.
Initially, Del Rey seemed to deny rumors of their romantic involvement. When confronted with an Instagram post about their dating status, she commented a brief “No.” However, some fans speculated that her comment might have been in response to a different comment from another fan, who noted that Dufrene had only recently separated from his wife. This led to questions about whether this raised any “red flags” for Del Rey.
Despite the initial denials and speculations, the couple’s recent actions have clearly demonstrated their commitment to each other. Del Rey’s father walking her down the aisle served as a touching moment that highlighted the support of her family for this new chapter in her life.
Lana Del Rey’s romantic history has seen its share of ups and downs. She was briefly engaged to musician Clayton Thomas in 2020 before the couple ended their engagement. However, it appears that Del Rey has found lasting happiness with Jeremy Dufrene, marking a new and joyous chapter in her life.
The picturesque setting of Des Allemandes provided a perfect backdrop for their wedding, blending the natural beauty of Louisiana with the couple’s unique love story. Fans of the “Summertime Sadness” singer are eagerly awaiting more details and official photos from the ceremony, hoping to catch a glimpse of the special moments shared between Del Rey and Dufrene.
