Lana Del Rey is ignoring the critics and sticking beside her man. Weeks back, the singer sparked dating rumors when she was photographed holding hands with a mystery man at the Reading Festival in the UK. He was later revealed to be Jeremy Dufrene, a tour guide at Airboat Tours by Arthur. Fans immediately lost it, lamenting that he was way out of her league. However, Lana doesn’t care as she introduces him to her inner Hollywood circle.
Over the weekend, the Summertime Sadness singer went public with her controversial romance. Per People Magazine, She took Dufrene as her plus one to attend model Karen Elson’s wedding to Lee Foster in New York. Also present at the star-studded nuptials were Lana’s best pal, Taylor Swift, and her boyfriend, Travis Kelce. Lana and Dufrene were later seen exiting the venue hand-in-hand.
For the ceremony, the 39-year-old looked gorgeous in a baby blue halter-neck dress with a plunging neckline and a thigh-high slit. She paired the outfit with pink ballet shoes and a mint green bag while donning minimal makeup and jewelry. Her hair was styled into a half-fringe updo, with a blue scrunchie holding her bun. Dufrene, on the other hand, opted for a clean look comprising a deep blue suit over a white shirt and a pair of brown loafers.
As seen in a viral video, the Young and Beautiful songstress kept smiling as she and Dufrene braved through the throng of paparazzi, never leaving each other.
Fans Lament Lana Del Rey’s ‘Bad Taste’ In Men After Official Outing
Unfortunately, Lana’s confirmation of Dufrene as her man has done little to silence the trolls. Following their outing, fans doubled down on their criticism, bashing the singer for her choice of men. “It’s official. Lana del Rey dates the questionable Jeremy Dufrene. This is in New York City. It’s true. Lana has bad tastes and supports Trump,” wrote one fan. Another harsh comment read, “Lana del Rey and Jeremy Dufrene show us that love can be very, very, very blind, too blind.” A third fan complained:
“I love Lana del Rey but how can you defend her from criticism if she dates men like Jeremy Dufrene.”
Although Lana and Dufrene’s romance is relatively new, the pair have known each other for a while. A 2019 Facebook post from the singer showed them hanging out in Louisana after Lana visited his workplace with her friends.
