Don McLean celebrated a milestone relationship moment with a sweet social media shout out to his lady.

McLean, 80, shared a snap with his girlfriend, Paris (Dunn) Dylan, 31, on Instagram to commemorate their 10th anniversary.

The "American Pie" singer confirmed his relationship with the former reality star in 2018, two years after they began dating.

In 2024, McLean shared images from the White House event and wrote, "Great to be invited by the Biden's to the White House for The State Dinner for Kenya's President William Ruto. The last two state dinners I've been traveling and not able to make it, but this one I was available."

He added, "Also, the Governor of Maine was there, but wasn't able to meet her. Being a long time resident I hope to meet her soon and sing at the state capitol."

"She is better to me, I think, than anybody I've ever known," he said. "She's a very pure-hearted person. And, my God, she travels everywhere with me. We've probably been to 501 nighters, you know, and she still doesn't get sick of hearing me sing."

He said he doesn't worry about their 48-year age difference: "As long as she's happy and I'm happy, we take it one day at a time, and we'll move ahead, obviously, and who knows what the future holds, but nobody knows what the future holds anyway. So I'm just out there on the edge, dancing."
