Jutta Leerdam added an Olympic gold medal to her stellar resume, and she did it with an Olympic record time. Her fiancé Jake Paul was there to witness it and share the special moment with her.

The 27-year-old Leerdam with a time of 1:12.31 edged out teammate Femke Kok, who set the Olympic record before Leerdam raced and got silver. Now, the seven-time world champion Leerdam has her gold.

It also erases the scrutiny she’s been under during the Milano Cortina Games after her Paul private jet flex, and then skipping the Opening Ceremony where she posted from bed.

After sharing a sweet kiss upon his arrival, Paul posted from the ice arena before Leerdam raced, encouraging her.
