Jake Paul made sure to be by Jutta Leerdam‘s side for one of the biggest moments of her career, traveling thousands of miles to Norway for an intimate pre-race moment that was caught on camera, just before she clinched gold in the women’s team sprint at the 2025 World Speed Skating Championships.
Leerdam and her Dutch teammates stormed to victory in the event held in Hamar, Norway, but it was her brief exchange with Paul that captivated fans before the race had even begun.
As she waited for her heat, Paul approached Leerdam to give her a quick hug and shoulder rub, offering some last-minute encouragement. Smiling, she responded warmly: “Oh thank you.”
Paul and Leerdam’s Journey Together
This isn’t the first time Paul has made headlines for his relationship with Leerdam. The pair first went public back in March 2023, when they were spotted enjoying a romantic date in Miami, Florida.
Soon after, Leerdam confirmed the relationship on Instagram, posting a series of affectionate photos that quickly went viral among fans of both celebrities.
Since then, Paul and Leerdam have been inseparable, sharing glimpses of their life together on social media. Paul, known for his boxing career and for making waves as a YouTube star, even hinted at future plans with Leerdam, saying he sees marriage and a family as part of their future.
Despite previous high-profile relationships and engagements – including to social media stars Tana Mongeau and Julia Rose – Paul’s bond with Leerdam appears more serious than ever.
Ahead of her race, Paul shared a photo from his private jet on Instagram, captioning it, “coming babes”, confirming that he was flying out to support her.
His dedication was rewarded when Leerdam powered through to claim second place in the 500 meters and helped her team win gold in the team sprint, cementing her status as one of the sport’s brightest stars.
Meanwhile, Paul continues to focus on his own career. After an undefeated run in 2024, including a headline fight against Mike Tyson, Paul now holds an 11-1 record with seven knockouts, and he’s slated to return to the ring in another Netflix event later this year – though his next opponent remains a mystery.
Rumors of a future fight with Conor McGregor continue to swirl.
As Leerdam basks in her world title victory, Paul‘s presence in Hamar demonstrated that no matter how busy his fight schedule gets, he’s ready to travel the world to support her.
And with both stars riding high in their respective careers, fans will be watching closely to see what comes next for this power couple.
