We can hardly keep up with Lana Del Rey‘s odd side quests. One moment, she’s working at a Waffle House, and the next, she’s officially announcing her debut country album. Then, we see her walking hand in hand with a much older new beau.
To be honest, throughout most of her time in the limelight, we have all struggled to keep track of Lana’s relationships, both the old and the new. So, when she suddenly appeared holding hands with a new boyfriend, it wasn’t all that surprising to most netizens. What did catch us off guard, however, was their visible age difference. The man’s appearance indicates he is much older than Del Rey, and after a bit of digging, we discovered that age is not their only difference, as their professions couldn’t be more apart, so here’s what we found.
Who is Jeremy Dufrene, Lana Del Rey’s new boyfriend?
Jeremy Dufrene, Lana Del Rey’s new beau, is a captain at Airboat Tours by Arthur in Louisiana, where he was born and likely raised. Although there is little to no information online about his exact age, birth date, or personal details, his company’s biography reveals that he previously worked seven days a week at a chemical plant and spent his vacation days shrimping — an interesting tidbit if that’s the kind of fun fact you were hoping for.
According to the website, Dufrene’s tours take guests on rides through swamps and marshes, where they can observe wildlife up close, including herons, egrets, hawks, alligators, and bald eagles. The speed of the rides is up to the guests to decide, offering two different speeds: high, or slow. His profession couldn’t be more different from that of his superstar girlfriend, though, but it seems their paths crossed years ago — thanks to this exact job.
In photos dating back to 2019 from Del Rey’s Facebook posts, Dufrene appears in a few pictures with the caption, “Jeremy lemme be captain at Arthur’s Air Boat Tours.” The exact timeline of their relationship — if they are in an official relationship at all, that is — remains unclear. However, fans began speculating that the two were involved after they were spotted holding hands backstage on Sunday, Aug. 25, ahead of Lana’s concert at the Leeds Festival, as seen in a few TikTok videos and images.
On the Lana Del Rey subreddit, fans have also shared a few instances where the two lovebirds have been spotted together. They were allegedly seen shopping at Harrods in London and dining together at a local pub. Now, it’s only a matter of time before more sightings occur, given the growing interest from fans (and everyone, really) in this newfound romance — especially after Del Rey’s rumored fling with rapper Quavo, which to this day, remains but a rumor.
