Jake Paul, the YouTube sensation turned professional boxer, has officially shared the exciting news of his engagement to Jutta Leerdam, a world champion speed skater. The couple made this joyful announcement on March 22 through a heartfelt Instagram post that showcased their engagement moments.
In the post, they expressed their enthusiasm with the message, “We’re engaged, we can’t wait to spend forever together,” which thrilled their combined 33 million followers.

Timeline of their Relationship
Jake Paul and Jutta Leerdam began their relationship two years ago, connecting on social media in 2023 after both had recently exited previous romances. Paul had broken up with Julia Rose, while Leerdam ended her relationship with Koen Verweij, a fellow Dutch speed skater, in August 2022.
Their relationship developed quickly, and the couple moved in together in Puerto Rico, frequently traveling across the United States and Europe. They often shared glimpses of their life together on social media, showcasing their adventures and deepening affection.
Earlier this year, during a podcast interview, Paul referred to Leerdam as “the one” and shared his desire to start a family with her, hinting at their long-term plans.
This engagement arrives less than two years after Paul’s brother, Logan Paul, proposed to model Nina Agdal. As Logan and Nina prepare for their upcoming wedding, it seems to be an especially festive period for the Paul family.
The couple’s exciting news also coincides with the imminent launch of their new reality series, Paul American, set to debut on March 27. The series aims to provide fans with an intimate glimpse into their lives, featuring behind-the-scenes footage that highlights their journeys as successful social media personalities and athletes.
