Lana Del Rey shares PDA with husband onstage at Cardiff concert
Lana Del Rey surprised fans with a rare display of affection during her June 23 concert at Cardiff's Principality Stadium. While performing a haunting rendition of 'Stars Fell on Alabama,' the singer stepped off stage to kiss her husband, Jeremy Dufrene, before returning to the melancholic finale of the song. Jeremy Dufrene blowing a kiss to Lana Del Rey and she gets emotional singing 'Stars Fell on Alabama' ❤️ — LDR Anthem (@ldr_anthem) June 24, 2025 The performance marked Del Rey's 40th birthday and featured a Southern Gothic-inspired set, complete with a shotgun-house facade and porch swings. The theatrical elements heightened the emotional atmosphere of the show, which included deeply moving versions of 'Summertime Sadness,' 'Video Games,' and a recital of Allen Ginsberg's 'Howl.' Dufrene, known for his work as an alligator tour guide, has kept a low profile despite his connection to the pop icon. The kiss, though brief, stood out as a symbolic moment of love and vulnerability in a performance defined by introspection and raw emotion. Fans and critics praised the show for its artistic direction and emotional depth. Many noted the contrast between the stadium's grand scale and the personal, intimate tone Del Rey maintained throughout the evening. The performance closed with a crowd singalong of 'Country Roads,' turning the massive venue into a moment of collective warmth. Del Rey's Cardiff concert has since gone viral, with social media buzzing over the unexpected kiss and her immersive stage design. As she continues her tour, the singer's blend of poetic vulnerability and visual storytelling remains a signature feature of her live performances.
