In a surprising turn of events, Grammy-nominated singer and songwriter Lana Del Rey has married Jeremy Dufrene, a swamp tour guide from Louisiana. The couple exchanged vows on Thursday in a picturesque ceremony in Des Allemands, Louisiana, just 45 minutes from New Orleans.
Exclusive footage and images obtained by The Daily Mail showcase the intimate outdoor wedding held by the water. The 39-year-old Del Rey, born Elizabeth Grant, looked radiant in a flowing white dress, while Dufrene, 49, complemented her elegance in a sharp dark suit.
Del Rey and Dufrene’s relationship gained public attention when they were spotted holding hands at the Reading Festival in the UK this past August. However, their connection dates back to at least 2019, when Del Rey first visited Dufrene’s wildlife tours, highlighting her fascination with the Louisiana swamps. Earlier this year, she returned to the area for another swamp tour, tagging Dufrene on social media, further cementing their bond.
According to New Orleans news outlet NOLA.com, the couple secured their marriage license from Lafourche Parish just three days prior to the ceremony. The wedding took place near Airboat Tours by Arthur Matherne, the company where Dufrene guides adventures through the swamp, showcasing the region’s wildlife, including alligators.
Del Rey is no stranger to Louisiana, frequently visiting the state and making headlines with her local excursions. In June, she stirred excitement among locals with a late-night visit to the Tic-Toc Cafe, a beloved diner known primarily to residents.
Renowned for her hits like “Video Games” and “Summertime Sadness,” Lana Del Rey’s marriage marks a unique chapter in her life, blending her celebrity status with the charm of Louisiana’s natural beauty. Meanwhile, Dufrene’s Airboat Tours has garnered a five-star rating on Yelp, praised by over 240 reviewers for its thrilling experiences.
As this enchanting love story unfolds, fans and followers eagerly await what the future holds for the newlyweds.
