Bruce Dickinson, the frontman of IRON MAIDEN, has recently tied the knot with his fiancée, Leana Dolci, a French fitness instructor, as reported by Kerrang!.
The couple divide their time between Paris and his residence in London.
“I wander round and it all feels a bit bohemian, a bit exotic,” he says of his life in Paris. “I still love London, but it’s a slightly different headspace when you get [here].”
Dickinson‘s previous marriages were with Patrice “Paddy” Bowden and Erica “Jane” Barnett. Unfortunately, his second wife, Bowden, passed away in 2020.
Dickinson will release his new solo album, The Mandrake Project, on March 1 via BMG. Alongside the album, Bruce also announced an exciting collaboration with Z2 for an upcoming comic series. To the delight of the international comic community, 2,000 exclusive versions of the comic were unveiled at CCXP, adding to the excitement surrounding this extraordinary project.
With ten captivating and innovative tracks, The Mandrake Project promises to be a definitive rock album of 2024, showcasing Bruce Dickinson’s exceptional vocal prowess and his long-standing partnership with co-writer and producer Roy “Z” Ramirez.

Bruce previously said about the album: “So, everybody, everybody on the planet who’s been going, ‘Oh my god. What’s this solo thing gonna be all about when it finally happens?’ Well, it’s finally happening. It’s called ‘The Mandrake Project’, and’ of course, it’s music. But, it’s also much, much, more. More than that, I’m not gonna reveal for now, ’cause it will become self-explanatory and self-evident as we go through and reveal more layers of the onion for you all.”
“But, yeah, The Mandrake Project. We’ve been working on this since 2014, when it wasn’t called The Mandrake Project. And it’s had time to grow and mature. And, oh my God, has it ever. I think you will be really, really excited. And, I hope you love everything that we’ve created for you.”
