Lana Del Rey has broken her silence on her rumored romance with alligator tour guide Jeremy Dufrene.
On Saturday, the 39-year-old singer-songwriter responded to the rumors, leaving a comment under an Instagram post by @thejustnlife speculating about their relationship.
This comes after Del Rey was spotted holding hands with Dufrene ahead of her performance at Leeds Festival last week, with fans speculating that she dropped a big hint about her rumoured lover in one of her songs.
She appeared to deny that there was a romantic relationship between her and Dufrene with her ambiguous response: “No.”
However, her fans had mixed reactions to her response and debated what she meant by her one-word comment.

On Saturday, the 39-year-old singer-songwriter responded to the rumors, leaving a comment under an Instagram post by @thejustnlife speculating about their relationship; spotted at the Rock en Seine Festival on August 21.
While some fans assumed her comment was a denial in response to the dating rumors, others said they believed she was coming to Dufrene’s defense and responding at the end of the post when the account asked, “Do these new details seem like a warning sign to you?
The online platform’s Instagram post included a photo of Dufrene, who offers airboat tours in Louisiana, and Del Rey posing together in front of a swamp.
The caption noted that her alleged new boyfriend is an alligator tour guide and claimed that he “recently separated from his wife.”
The publication also reported that a person claiming to be Dufrene’s daughter recently took to X, formerly Twitter, to share that she learned of her father’s affair with the singer through social media.
But Del Rey denied those rumors in a later comment on the same post.
“Also, that’s not her daughter on Twitter,” said the 11-time Grammy nominee, born Elizabeth Woolridge Grant.
It’s unknown how long the two have known each other, but it appears they’ve been friends for a while, as Del Rey shared a photo with him on one of their swamp tours in March 2019.
And earlier this year, Del Rey reconnected with him and shared a photo of herself revisiting the swamp tour with her loved ones.
Although Dufrene was not seen in the May 16 post, she tagged him in her caption and referred to him as “my boy.”
However, her followers had a mixed reaction and debated what she meant by her comment. While some followers assumed her comment was a denial in response to the dating rumors, others said they believed she was coming to Dufrene’s defense and responding at the end of the post when the account asked, “Are these new details raising any alarms for you?”

Fans also spotted what appeared to be a nod to the relationship that Del Rey recently made during a recent concert.
While performing her song Chemtrails Over the Country Club, she changed the lyrics from ‘You were born in December and I was born in June’ to: ‘You were born in March and I was born in June’.
The change is significant as Dufrene’s Instagram reveals that her birthday is in March.
