The Songstress’ Friends Had To Get Used To Romance
The new bride’s friends were initially skeptical of their girl’s new romance with Dufrene.
As previously reported by The Blast, Del Rey’s friends “dig some digging” on her now-husband to make sure he was one of the good ones.
“Her friends and team did some digging on him over fears he could be using her, but his business is lucrative and he doesn’t need or want Lana’s money,” the insider reported. “They can see he treats her right and he is very, very low maintenance. He gives her what she is seeking in a man and is romantic,” an insider reported.
The “Cinnamon Girl” songstress brought her man to a string of shows in the UK back in August, per the Daily Mail.
“He is a good guy and she is wildly attracted to him. He is a good father and no one who knows him has anything bad to say about him,” a source told the publication.
The new couple attended model Karen Elson’s wedding last August. The duo left the event hand-in-hand.
