Inside Lana Del Rey's simple Louisiana life with alligator tour guide husband despite huge $60M net worth
The Video Games hitmaker, 40, who married Dufrene, 49, in a shock wedding back in September 2024, showed her laid-back new reality in a series of photos and clips posted to her Instagram.
Some snaps featured the loved-up pair cozying up together, while others showed Lana enjoying the tranquil pace of her new lifestyle.
In one video the songstress showcased her dance moves on a boat pole in the middle of the bayou, earning her the nickname 'bayou babe' from fans.
Against a serene backdrop of water covered with lily pads, the New York native displayed her natural beauty in a plain yellow dress, tied into a knot at the front, with her hair pulled back in a ponytail.
There was also a snap of Lana — who has a reported net worth of $60 million — posing with her other half while rocking a bedazzled pink purse slung over her arm, and holding a can of Coca Cola in her other hand.
Meanwhile her spouse sported a plain black t-shirt and a hat, with a pair of sunglasses perched atop his head, as he proudly gestured toward his superstar wife.
Another image showed Lana on a what looked to be a dock, showing off her natural beauty with no makeup while wearing a white tank top and a pair of matching shorts.
She was also seen cuddling up with Jeremy in that same outfit, while he sported a green t-shirt and a Ford trucker hat.
The singer also added an image of her and Jeremy inside of a house with a caved in roof.
Lana was seen in a pair of denim shorts and a pink t-shirt, with Jeremy sporting a grey tee and a pair of jeans.
Lana went on to share a video of her posing for the camera in an oversized black hoodie.
There was also a snap of the singer pulling a funny face while sporting a cammo t-shirt from what appeared to be her husband's boat tour company, with his hand on her shoulder.
The musical sensation went on to post a sweet snap of her wearing a pink top with a matching pink cross, and her hair pulled back.
Her carousel ended with a dramatic nighttime video of her and Jeremy's bayou adventure.
A particularly thrilling moment saw her reach into the water to seemingly make contact with an alligator, all while splashing Jeremy.
Her fans and friends were thrilled for the star, with one writing, 'happiness is a [alligator emoji].'
'bayou babe say hi to the baby gators for me!!' another added.
Last month Lana passionately kissed Jeremy onstage while performing in Cardiff.
During her show, the singer songwriter stopped mid-performance to run up to her husband, who was standing backstage.
She appeared to be still engrossed in their honeymoon phase when she performed the ballad dedicated to her husband, which she recently debuted at Stagecoach.
In the middle of serenading both him and her audience with her song Stars Fell on Alabama at Principality Stadium, she got visibly emotional and stopped singing.
In fan-taken footage, she appeared to be wiping tears away from her eyes when she walked over to him for an embrace and a kiss.
It came just days after she celebrated her 40th milestone birthday with the swamp boat tour guide and her in-laws.
Last year, the singer and her now-husband exchanged vows by the water in Des Allemandes, Louisiana at the same bayou where he operates his popular swamp tours.
Their nuptials came just one month after she confirmed their relationship following their secret romance.
She first shared a photo with him back in 2019 after taking one of his tours from Arthur's Airboats in Des Allemandes.
Years after their initial meeting, they reconnected in 2024 before getting engaged and then married in late September 2024 in what sources described as a 'whirlwind' romance.
'It's been kind of a whirlwind romance, but Lana's close friends hoped she would get married,' an insider said.
'Jeremy is different from the men that Lana meets in the entertainment world. He's a great guy.'

Labubu fans dote over ugly-cute doll trending at Comic-Con
SAN DIEGO, July 27 (Reuters) - San Diego Comic-Con is the latest location where the ugly-cute dolls named Labubu have been trending, with fans carrying the plushies globally popularized by celebrities Rihanna, Lizzo, Dua Lipa, and Lisa from the K-pop group Blackpink. The wide-eyed and grinning doll was created in 2015 by Hong Kong artist and illustrator Kasing Lung. In 2019, Lung allowed them to be sold by Pop Mart ( opens new tab, a Chinese toy company that sells collectible figurines, often in "blind boxes". "Blind boxes" are sealed boxes containing a surprise item that is usually part of a themed collection. Naomi Galban, from San Diego, waited in line on Sunday at the Pop Mart booth in the San Diego Convention Center for a chance to get her first Labubu. "Every time I go to a Pop Mart store, they're sold out," the 24-year-old told Reuters. She hoped to buy one for her little sister. Emily Brough, Pop Mart's Head of IP Licensing, spoke to Reuters on Thursday about Labubu fans at Comic-Con. "We love to see how fans are personalizing it (Labubu) for themselves," Brough said next to the Pop Mart booth. While Brough noted that there were many people with a Labubu strapped to their bags and backpacks at Comic-Con, the doll's popularity did not happen overnight. Labubus had a huge boost in 2019 after Pop Mart began selling them, and in 2024, when Blackpink's Lisa, who is Thai, created a buying frenzy in Thailand after she promoted Labubu on social media. Pop Mart saw sales skyrocket in North America that same year, with revenue in the U.S. in the first quarter of 2025 already surpassing the full-year U.S. revenue from 2024, Pop Mart said. When he created Labubu, Lung gave the character, who is female, a backstory inspired by Nordic mythology. He called her and his other fictional creatures "The Monsters." Diana Goycortua, 25, first discovered Labubu through social media, and before she knew it, it felt like a "game" to try and collect the dolls. "It's a little bit of gambling with what you're getting," the Labubu fan from San Diego said on Sunday while waiting at the Pop Mart booth, concluding that her love for the character made it worth trying blind boxes. Goycortua already has three Labubus, and was hoping to score her a fourth one at Comic-Con.

Michael J. Fox's forgotten fling with Nancy McKeon sparked friendship with future Melrose Place star
Michael J. Fox has long been pals with Doug Savant, as they met via The Facts of Life star Nancy McKeon, who Fox dated in the mid-1980s. Savant, 61, chat about his longtime friendship with Fox, 64, to People at Lifetime's Summer Soirée event, held at the Santa Monica Proper Hotel July 16. Savant spoke with the outlet in commemoration of the 40th anniversary of the August 1985 release of the comedy Teen Wolf. Savant - who would find fame playing Matt Fielding on the nighttime soap Melrose Place in the 1990s - appeared in the film as a rookie actor opposite Fox. Fox was one of the biggest stars of the 1980s with his roles as Alex P. Keaton on Family Ties and time traveling teen Marty McFly in the Back To The Future franchise. In the movie, Savant portrayed of Brad, a classmate and basketball teammate of Fox's lead character, Scott Howard, a teenage high school student who had the ability to transform into a wolf. Savant expounded to the outlet about his connection to Fox through McKeon - and how it tied into his Southern California roots. 'I grew up in Burbank, California, and I went to school with Philip McKeon and Nancy McKeon – Nancy McKeon from Facts of Life and Phil McKeon from Alice,' Savant said. 'And we were dear friends.' Savant said that he didn't tell Fox about his connection with McKeon, 59, specifically in an effort not to bother the star. 'I just wanted to do my job and be professional, but I had not said anything, said Savant, who also is known for playing Tom Scavo on the hit ABC series Desperate Housewives. Savant said that a week into production, Fox figured out the connection and confronted him about it. 'He went home and Nancy asked, "Who's in the movie with you? Let me see the call sheet." And she said, "Doug Savant? We were family friends."' Savant added, 'One day, Michael comes to work, he says, "Why didn't you tell me that?" He was upset with me that I had not told him.' After that, a fast friendship formed, according to Savant, who said that he 'had a great time' working with the beloved actor on Teen Wolf. Savant said that he looks back with nostalgia on his work on the motion picture: 'I have such great memories from that film.' He added of the movie's longevity: ' The movie has had a stunning lifetime, and people love it. 'They made sequels, and it resonated. So I'm just grateful to have been a small part of it. Savant said the movie was on TV while he was working on a new project and jarred his nostalgia. He recalled: 'The craft service person would play movies, and he puts on Teen Wolf. And there I was doing my job on a new show, but watching Teen Wolf in the craft service trailer.' Fox in 1985 met actress Tracy Pollan, who worked with him on Family Ties, but 'their relationship remained platonic, however, as they were both dating other people at the time,' People reported. They commenced dating after working together again on the 1988 movie Bright Lights, Big City, and married that same year. Fox and Pollan are parents to four adult children: son Sam Michael, 36, twin daughters Aquinnah Kathleen and Schuyler Frances, 30, and daughter Esmé Annabelle, 23. The Back To The Future star was 29 in 1991 when he was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, and went public with the information in 1998. He has spent the years since working tirelessly on charitable efforts toward funding research with a cure in mind.
