Jake Paul breaks down in tears as fiancée Jutta Leerdam shatters Olympic speedskating record

Fox News medical contributor Dr. Nicole Saphier joins 'Fox & Friends Weekend' to react to Olympic skier Lindsey Vonn's crash during the first race of the 2026 Winter Olympics just ten days after rupturing her ACL.

As Dutch speedskater Jutta Leerdam broke an Olympic record in her gold-medal-winning run on Monday, her fiancée Jake Paul couldn’t contain his emotions.

He was crying for joy.

Paul was on his feet in the stands, bawling his eyes out as Leerdam didn’t just live up to the expectations of winning gold at the 2026 Milan Cortina games — she also broke the 1,000-meter speed skating record with a time of 1:12.31.

Leerdam broke the previous record set by teammate Femke Kok, who notched her time just moments before Leerdam’s run.

While the 27-year-old skater was brought to tears after seeing her final time, Paul was in the stands doing the same, surrounded by her family, who also couldn’t help but cry tears of joy.

This marked Leerdam’s first-ever gold medal at the Olympics and her second overall medal after winning silver in Beijing in 2022.

This one was extra special considering Leerdam’s surprising fall during the Dutch Olympic Trials, which forced her out of the race. There were talks that her spot at Milan Cortina was in doubt, but she made the Dutch team in the end.
