Jeremy Dufrene was engaged to Kelli Welsh for nearly 12 years, a relationship that ended in 2023. A year later, he surprised everyone by marrying Lana Del Rey in an intimate ceremony in Louisiana. 💍

The story drew attention because of how quickly the romance unfolded in public, but there’s an important detail: Jeremy and Lana didn’t meet that same year. They had first crossed paths in 2019, when the singer took one of his swamp tours.

Their relationship became public in August 2024, and just a few weeks later, on September 26, they got married by the bayou where he works as a tour captain. Kelli, his former fiancée, said she was surprised by the wedding, though she said she was happy for him. ✨
