Don’t believe everything celebrities say on social media!
Lana Del Rey has reportedly married alligator tour guide Jeremy Dufrene, just over one month after hopping onto Instagram to actually deny that they were even dating. We guess she really wanted to keep their relationship under wraps until they had tied the knot!
The 39-year-old “Summertime Sadness” singer reportedly married the 49-year-old Louisiana-born alligator tour guide in a secret ceremony by the water at Airboat Tours by Arthur in Des Allemands, Louisiana on Thursday, September 26th.

According to BBC News, the couple (pictured above and below at Karen Elson's wedding in New York City in September) applied for a marriage license on Monday, September 23rd, with the "Video Games" singer using her legal name, Elizabeth Woolridge Grant.
"The wedding ceremony and reception were both held in the same bayou where Jeremy operates his swamp boats tours," a source told People. "This is where they first met. It's a special place for them," they continued, adding: "It was a beautiful, relaxed and family focused wedding. The focus was just on their love story."
Pap pictures show the "Diet Mountain Dew" singer walking hand in hand with her new husband in a beautiful wedding dress with a ruffled neckline and ruffled sleeves, which TMZ says was purchased back in May from a thrift store called Vintage Market by Trashy Diva in New Orleans.
Lana's friends reportedly couldn't be more delighted to see her and Jeremy walk down the aisle! "It's been kind of a whirlwind romance, but Lana's close friends hoped she would get married," an insider reportedly told People.
"Jeremy is different from the men that Lana meets in the entertainment world," they continued, adding: "He's a great guy. He's charming and charismatic in a Southern way, very much a gentleman and he treats Lana really well. She's an old soul."
Lana Del Rey First Met Her New Husband In 2019
The "White Dress" singer has actually known Dufrene for quite a few years. They first met back in 2019 when she took one of his boat tours in Des Allemands, Louisiana while she was in Louisiana to perform. She has dated a few other people since meeting him, including Sean Larkin, Clayton Johnson, Jack Donoghue, and Evan Winiker, before reuniting with him earlier this year.
The "Born to Die" hitmaker seemingly didn't want to tell her fans about her new beau until they had tied the knot, as she shut down dating rumors at the end of July by commenting "no" on a post about the rumors.
The dating rumors blew up after fans spotted some clues that she and Dufrene were dating a few months ago. Some of these clues included reportedly being spotted holding hands backstage at Leeds Festival in the U.K., where Lana was performing, and shopping at luxury department store Harrods.
