Who is Lana Del Rey’s new boyfriend?

Lana Del Rey has been spotted with an alligator tour guide, get to know the man behind the rumor.

Lana Del Rey has sparked romance rumors with Jeremy Dufrene, a 56-year-old alligator tour guide from Louisiana. The 39-year-old singer was seen holding hands with Dufrene at the Leeds Festival in the U.K., where she performed despite technical difficulties. The Daily Mail reported that the couple was later spotted shopping at Harrods and cozying up at a local pub, fueling speculation about their relationship. Fans on social media reacted with amusement, with one Reddit user, Frequently_Dizzy, commenting, "Lol her taste in men never ceases to crack me up."

Dufrene, who works as a tour guide for Arthur’s Air Boat Tours in Des Allemands, Louisiana, first met Del Rey in March 2019 when she took one of his tours. The encounter was commemorated on Instagram, with Dufrene posting a photo of the two together, captioned, "I never know who I can run across on my tours, but it is always a pleasure, @lanadelrey." Their connection was reignited in March 2024 when Del Rey returned to Louisiana for Hang Out Fest, tagging Dufrene in a post with the caption "Family w my guy @jeremy.dufrene."

Dufrene, a father of three, has been a tour guide since 2015 and has hosted several celebrities on his tours, including Kate Hudson and Glen Powell. Despite the low-key nature of his profession, Dufrene has become a minor celebrity in his own right, known for his alligator content on TikTok.

Del Rey's past relationships have included a variety of high-profile figures, from Scottish singer Barrie-James O’Neill to rapper G-Eazy and cop Sean Larkin. As her relationship with Dufrene gains attention, fans like Reddit user Budget_Ordinary1043 expressed their support, stating, "As long as they treat her well, I hope she’s happy."
