Lana Del Rey has described her new husband, alligator tour operator Jeremy Dufrene, as her “one and only” following their wedding.

The singer, 39, shared the sweet comment via Instagram on Wednesday, October 2, while reacting to a fan account that had posted a video of Del Rey and Dufrene spending time together.

After sharing her thoughts on the intense interest in her recent wedding and relationship, Del Rey praised her partner in the comments section.

“All that being said, Jeremy is the one and only,” she wrote. “And amazing. And we’re very happy.”

The Golden Bachelor star Gerry Turner, Lauren Alaina, Usher and more celebrities went to the chapel in 2024 and got married. Turner met Theresa Nist during the inaugural season of the Bachelor Nation spinoff, which aired in late 2023. Weeks after their televised proposal, Turner and Nist wed in a live TV ceremony on January […]

The comments come just less than a week after the couple reportedly tied the knot in Des Allemandes, Louisiana, on September 26.

Photos and videos published by the Daily Mail last week showed Del Rey wearing a floor-length white wedding gown as she made her way down the aisle.

According to the outlet, the “Summertime Sadness” singer was walked down the aisle by her father, Robert Grant. Per the Daily Mail, the ceremony took place in the same bayou where Dufrene, 49, runs his alligator tours.

As well as her father, Del Rey’s mother, Patricia Ann Hill, her sister, Caroline “Chuck” Grant, and brother, Charlie Hill-Grant, all reportedly attended the wedding.

While Del Rey and Dufrene have been relatively tight-lipped about their relationship, the Grammy nominee uploaded photos of herself with Dufrene taken back in 2019.

It is unknown when exactly Del Rey and Dufrene started dating, but they were first spotted publicly together in September when they attended Karen Elson’s wedding at New York City’s Electric Lady Studios.

After reports of the nuptials spread, Dufrene’s ex-fianceé Kelli Welsh revealed how surprised she was about the marriage in an interview with the Daily Mail.

“I am in shock because we were engaged for 12 years, and he got married after one month,” Welsh told the outlet on Saturday, September 28. “But I am happy for him. He is a very protective, hardworking, manly man. He needed to get out of his comfort zone. He was used to bayou life and being out on the swamp. He is deserving of this blessing.”

Prior to her relationship with Dufrene, Del Rey was linked to Barrie-James O’Neill, Francesco Carrozzini, G-Eazy, Sean Larkin and Clayton Johnson.

Del Rey has also shared her candid perspective on relationships in past interviews, revealing she enjoys romances with an “intense” dynamic.

“It’s been beautiful, but it’s been confusing because when … things don’t end in a traditional way,” Del Rey told Rolling Stone in July 2014. “You don’t have that traditional relationship where maybe you go out with couples at night, or you do normal things. It’s more of an extension of the creative process. There’s high-impact events that happen, or big adventures, or big fallouts. So it’s inspiring, and it’s not grounding, but it’s what I need to keep going.”
