He concluded, Thank you so, so much for loving me the way you do. Never stop being you.”
The Singer Shared The Alligator Tour Guide’s Reassuring Words, Which Convinced Her To Marry Him
The couple first met in 2019 when Del Rey went on one of his swamp excursions, and reconnected years later.
When she went public with their relationship, many were taken aback, especially because of the vast difference in their professional lives and the 11-year age gap between them.
However, the singer, born Elizabeth Grant, didn’t seem to care at all and proceeded to tie the knots with him in September 2024.
Last August, she revealed how she fell in love with Dufrene and the exact reassurance he gave her that made her marry him.
“Like many people who work with large, dangerous beasts, Jeremy has a calm, strong presence,” Del Rey told W Magazine. “When we met, I realized pretty immediately that I loved him, but that it might get difficult because of what I was bringing to the table.”
The “Say Yes To Heaven” singer then added that Dufrene reassured her from the start, saying, “I work with alligators — I have tough skin.”
“All the things that made me upset — and there were so many! — he would just listen and say, ‘You be you — and I’ll just love you more,’” she added.
Lana Del Rey Feared Her Fame Would Make Her Husband Uneasy
Since getting married, Del Rey and Dufrene have kept a low profile, especially as their relationship continues to come under scrutiny from critics.
She recalled how drones would often show up at their house looking to take photos of their private life and their early days as newlyweds.
“If I was him, I would have been nervous — my emotions were more overwhelming than usual, and my usual emotions can be quite overwhelming!” she said with a smile. “But Jeremy was fine. He told me, ‘Don’t worry about me.’”
She added of her man, “Jeremy is the most impactful person in my life. He’s quiet in public, but around me he talks all the time.”
