Lana Del Rey, Louisiana Swamp Tour Guide, Lafourche Parish Marriage License File | Entertainment/Life

Lana Del Rey and her swamp guide boyfriend don't play (video) games and have officially applied for a marriage license in Louisiana, according to court documents.

The famous singer and Jeremy Dufrene received the license in Lafourche Parish, which is about an hour's drive from the New Orleans metro.

The petition was filed Sept. 23 with the clerk of court in Thibodaux. The couple paid $32 in cash to get the license.

The couple, who recently made headlines for apparently surviving Hurricane Francine together in the bayou, still have 30 days to get married in the state of Louisiana or their license will expire.

Rumors about Del Rey and Dufrene's relationship first surfaced in late August when the pair were photographed together in England ahead of Del Rey's performance at the 2024 Reading & Leeds Festival. The British tabloid Daily Mail later reported that Del Rey and Dufrene were spotted together at a local pub in London.

Dufrene, a 49-year-old Louisiana native and boat captain with Airboat Tours by Arthur Matherne, has known the “Summertime Sadness” singer for years. In March 2019, Del Rey posted photos on Facebook of herself and several friends on tour with Dufrene in Des Allemands.

Del Rey returned to Louisiana for another swamp tour in May of this year, tagging Dufrene again in a photo posted to Instagram before headlining Hangout Fest in Orange Beach, Alabama. Nearly a month later, the singer posted more photos from the New Orleans area, including one of herself in a booth at Metairie's tiny restaurant Tic-Toc Café.
