It seems Lana Del Rey has once again found love, this time with a guy called Jeremy Dufrene. However, not everyone is thrilled by the news. Instead of offering their support, many have taken to criticizing her rumored new partner. Why? Because he isn’t a well-known billionaire or a trending pop star, but rather an alligator tour guide from Louisiana.
Lana del Rey’s Iconic New Boyfriend
Much like what happened with Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco, as soon as photos of Lana and Jeremy surfaced, the internet was flooded with mockery and insults aimed at the crocodile hunter, largely driven by his appearance and age.
The couple was spotted holding hands last Sunday, just before Lana’s concert at Leeds Festival, and in the blink of an eye, they became a trending topic.

Since then, the internet has been rife with negative comments from people questioning what could have led Lana to fall for Jeremy. These critics seem to forget that what truly matters is what’s on the inside, not the outside.
Who is Jeremy Dufrene, Lana Del Rey’s New Boyfriend?
Jeremy and Lana first met in March 2019 when the singer went on a boat tour with the adventurer. Although it wasn’t love at first sight, they gradually grew close after that.
In a Facebook post, she wrote, “Jeremy let me be captain at Arthur’s Air Boat Tours,” alongside a photo of her steering the boat with Dufrene by her side.
Jeremy Dufrene is an alligator hunter and tour guide in New Orleans, Louisiana. He works for Arthur’s Air Boat Tours, taking tourists on swamp and wildlife adventures in the region.

“Jeremy realized that life at a chemical plant, working seven days a week and shrimping on vacation days, wasn’t his calling. After some encouragement from his family, he got his captain’s license and started running tours. He quickly realized this was the perfect fit and has never looked back on his previous career at the plant. Jeremy is a great airboat captain and loves interacting with wildlife and customers.” -Arthurts Air Boat Tours bio
Well he sure does! Congrats to the happy couple who is living their Notting’ Hill Fantasy (kinda.)
