Lana Del Rey Marries Airboat Captain Jeremy Dufrene in Louisiana

Lana Dey Rey finally got to wear that white dress she sang about on Chemtrails Over the Country Club. This time it was of the wedding variety, though. People confirmed that the 39-year-old singer born Elizabeth Grant married Louisiana-born alligator tour guide Jeremy Dufrene on Thursday (Sept. 26) after a brief romance that began earlier this year.

Del Rey has not made a public statement about the nuptials that took place in Louisiana, five months after the singer is believed to have started dating the airboat captain she referred to as “my guy” in an Instagram post from May. Her reps have not yet responded to Billboard‘s request for comment.

It is the first marriage for Del Rey, who briefly dated musician Jack Donoghue in 2022-2023 before it is believed she began her relationship with Dufrene. The couple were first spotted holding hands in public at the Reading & Leeds Festivals in the U.K. in August, and then went public on Sept. 7 when they were photographed alongside fellow guests Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce at model Karen Elson’s wedding in New York City to Electric Lady Studios owner Lee Foster.

According to People, the couple first met in 2019 when Del Rey took a swamp boat tour on which Dufrene was her guide. The reportedly picked up their marriage license at the Lafourche Parish Clark of Court’s office on Sept. 23, after which they had 30 days to tie the knot before it expired.

Defrene’s bio on the Airboat Tours by Arthur site reveals that he worked at a chemical plant and spent his off days shrimping before getting his captain’s license. “He quickly realized that this was a great fit and he has never thought of going back to his previous career at the plant. Jeremy’s a great airboat captain and loves interacting with wildlife & customers,” it reads.

The Daily Mail obtained footage of the nuptials that took place by the water in Des Allemandes, La., the same bayou where divorced father-of-three Dufrene gives his tours. The photos show Del Rey being walked down the aisle by her dad, Robert Grant, wearing a flowing, floor-length white gown.
