Jake Paul watches pace skater girlfriend Jutta Leerdam win fourth Dutch dash title – earlier than they share a kiss in celebration

  • Jutta Leerdam stormed to victory in the 1000 metres at the NK sprint on Sunday
  • Boyfriend Jake Paul was in attendance to cheer on the Dutch speed skater 
  • Just over a month ago, Paul beat Mike Tyson in a controversial boxing bout 

Just over a month after defeating Mike Tyson in a boxing fight, Jake Paul was spotted cheering on his speed skater girlfriend Jutta Leerdam on Sunday night. 

In November, Paul caught the attention of millions across the world as he – somewhat controversially – took on Tyson, who is 31-years Paul’s senior. 

To little surprise, Paul secured a unanimous decision victory over the boxing veteran and, in the wake of it, has been spending time supporting girlfriend Leerdam.

On the weekend, the 26-year-old won her fourth Dutch sprint title thanks to a time of 1.15.26 in the 1000 meters at the NK sprint.

Paul, who was sat with Leerdam’s family, was seen cheering along throughout the event before sharing a kiss with the Dutch star after her victory. 

It was a role reversal for the couple after Leerdam sat and supported Paul throughout his bout with legendary boxer Tyson last month.

Leerdam is a highly successful speed skater who has swept up World Championship titles and an Olympic silver medal at the 2022 Winter Games.

Born in the Netherlands, Leerdam’s achievements on the ice have opened many doors for her. She has followed in the footsteps of her boyfriend in becoming somewhat of a social media sensation.

The 26-year-old, who has been branded the ‘world’s hottest speed skater’ by Dutch media, has amassed over four-and-a-half million Instagram followers after regularly posting snaps of herself competing, living her extroverted life with Paul or showing off her glamorous getaways.

Paul and Leerdam’s relationship first became public knowledge in March 2023, when the smitten pair couldn’t keep their hands off each other during a romantic date night in Miami, Florida.

Soon after, the speed-skating sensation confirmed they were a couple after sharing a number of loved-up photos of them together on Instagram.

Paul and Leerdam have now been together for 18 months, and the boxing star has even hinted at getting married and starting a family in the future.

In October last year, Paul was similarly seen in the stands cheering on Leerdam at the World Cup qualifiers in the Netherlands.

The besotted couple packed on the PDA in the stands, sharing a passionate smooch and loving glances.

They could not keep their hands off one another as Paul congratulated her for coming second in the race.
