Couple’s marriage license, filed last week in Louisiana, reveals pastor Judah Smith was the ceremony’s officiant
Lana Del Rey is officially married to Jeremy Dufrene, as the couple’s marriage license was signed and returned to Louisiana’s Lafourche Parish Clerk of Court last week.
The singer and the airboat captain initially married on September 26 in Des Allemands, Louisiana, near the bayou where Dufrene offers tours. While photos of the ceremony appeared online and seemingly confirmed the union, the marriage did not become official until the court clerk filed the license on October 18, the Associated Press reports.
The license also noted that Los Angeles pastor Judah Smith — who appears on Del Rey’s Did You Know That There’s a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd track “Judah Smith Interlude” — served as the officiant of the wedding. A house in Des Allemands, Louisiana, is listed as the couple’s residence.
Rumors that Del Rey had found love with Dufrene began to swirl in August. The pair first met back in 2019 when Del Rey posted a Facebook album of her and her girlfriends taking one of Dufrene’s tours.
Years later, reportedly when Del Rey was down South to headline Alabama’s Hangout Festival in May, the two reconnected, and later that month, she referred to Dufrene as “my guy” in an Instagram post.
Earlier this year, the pair were seen holding hands both backstage at Leeds Festival in the UK, where Del Rey headlined this summer, as well as at a wedding in New York.
