Already beaten by knockout and jaw surgery, Jake Paul experienced another hard blow this Friday.
New complicated period for Jake Paul. Beaten by KO by Anthony Joshua last Friday and operated on his jaw in the process, the American helplessly witnessed the misadventure of his partner Jutta Leerdam this Friday during the Dutch qualifications for the 2026 Winter Olympics.
Engaged in the 1,000 meters, her reference distance, the speed skating specialist fell heavily in the middle of a turn. At more than 50 km/h, the 26-year-old Dutchwoman lost her balance before ending her race in the railing, under the eyes of Jake Paul, present in the stands.

Very moved, Jutta Leerdam burst into tears upon arrival.
“I felt like I was stepping on something, I completely slipped. I’m so disappointed… I’m convinced that I would have done 1’13, a qualifying time”she told NOS television. If this fall compromises her direct chances in the 1,000 meters, the skater is not yet completely ruled out from the Olympic race.
In a relationship since 2023
Jutta Leerdam still has the possibility of participating in the 2026 Winter Olympics on her favorite distance. The Dutch Skating Federation still has three arbitrarily allocated places. “I hope they want to field the best at the start. I think I’m part of it »she said, determined.
Present at the edge of the track, Jake Paul could do nothing to prevent his companion’s fall. The YouTuber-turned-boxer is also going through a delicate period after his defeat against Anthony Joshua, where he fell in the sixth round. A couple since spring 2023, Jake Paul and Jutta Leerdam have been engaged since last March.
