Fresh off her gold medal for the Netherlands, Dutch speed skater Jutta Leerdam was back crushing in the gym as she prepares for another race at the Milano Cortina Games.

And taking a bite of her medal while at lunch with Paul.

Leerdam’s Olympics started off with controversy after she was under scrutiny for flexing her private jet entrance to Milan, and skipping the Opening Ceremony where she posted from bed and then had a shocking post after that.

Now, she’s an Olympic champion who will go for gold No. 2 in the 500m on February 15.
She’s also prepping hard in the gym. First, of course, she had to get in another selfie.

Leerdam crushes her workout and fit
And then showed off her strength doing different exercises in her fire workout fit. First, some cleans.

And some squats.

And finally box jumps.

Leerdam’s Olympics are already a success, but she can get legendary status with one more gold.
Paul and Leerdam’s love story
Paul slid into her Instagram DMs in 2022 to invite her on his podcast, eventually meeting in person in Miami. They went official in 2023.
She caused a stir with her dress during his fight in November of 2024 with Mike Tyson.
The couple then got engaged in March of 2025 in a beautiful proposal as Paul, 29, gave Leerdam giant diamond ring.
