As his brother Logan Paul got engaged to his long-term girlfriend last year, fans got more interested in Jake Paul’s girlfriend, Dutch speed skater Jutta Leerdam.
Jake Paul is one of YouTube’s most prominent personalities. First gaining fame on Vine with big bro Logan Paul, Jake has gone on to become a prolific influencer-boxer with his own sports betting brand, Betr.
Although he’s stepped away from life as a vlogger to focus on his combat sports career, Jake is still a major online figure, and his love life is always a point of interest to his 20 million subscribers.
Jake was previously romantically involved with model Julia Rose. However, the two appeared to have a rocky relationship and officially broke things off in 2022.
Now, ‘The Problem Child’ is seeing Dutch speed skater and influencer, Jutta Leerdam.
Who is Jutta Leerdam?
Jutta Leerdam is a 25-year-old professional speed skater and world champion from the Netherlands. She was born on December 30, 1998, and has managed to gain quite the collection of medals since first stepping onto the ice at 11 years old.
The 6-foot-tall blonde is a five-time speed skating world champion as well as an influencer, boasting over four million followers on Instagram. The skating star specializes in sprint events and holds records in the 1000m.
Jutta, who trains with both men and women to leverage her game, won her first major title at the 2017 World Junior Championships in Finland. She’s clinched three world titles since then, is considered the reigning sprint European champion, and is an Olympic medalist.

When did Jutta Leerdam and Jake Paul start dating?
Although she’s been in a few of Jake’s pics and videos up until this point, the couple went official after she appeared in an episode of his podcast on April 27, 2023.
According to Jake and Jutta, they’d been attempting to keep their relationship lowkey, but the paparazzi got to them first, and they ended up breaking the news via Instagram on April 3.
It seems like Jutta is head-over-heels for her boyfriend, saying in their vlog that Jake is actually “more introverted in real life, more chill, more sweet and genuine, vulnerable, and emotionally open. I’ve never seen that in a guy.”
She has also praised his boxing career, expressing just how proud she is of him.
“I’m so so proud of you. You have only been doing this sport for 3.5 years and make the biggest fights happen. You inspire me so much with your work ethic, the way you think big, and your crazy determination,” she wrote in a tribute post on her Instagram.
For now, it looks like these two lovebirds are thick as thieves. It doesn’t look as though Jake’s ex, Julia, has made any comment about their new relationship just yet — but we’ll make sure to keep you updated about this new romance right here on Dexerto.
