Jake Paul and Jutta Leerdam have just shared some big news. The YouTuber-turned-boxer and the Dutch speed skater told everyone they're getting married.

The couple made their announcement in a video that quickly got a lot of attention online. They were in a beautiful place, both wearing white clothes. Leerdam was crying as Paul asked her to marry him. They've been together since 2023, and now they're taking the next step.

Paul has been busy lately. He's still boxing and running his YouTube channel. He's also got some companies and always finds ways to stay in the spotlight and make money. Leerdam is a successful speed skater, but we don't hear as much about her work.

Eddie Hearn, who runs Matchroom Boxing, talked about Paul's engagement in an interview with talkSPORT.com. When asked if he'd get an invite to the wedding, Hearn said:

"Probably not (...) No. Look, I like it, I think what Jake has done, not only in his boxing career, but also in the great events he has organized, is something to be recognized. For example, I was not in favor of Jake Paul against Mike Tyson, but what an event! The numbers were fantastic. I mean, we had Taylor Serrano on the card, you know?"

Hearn and Paul don't always get along, but they do work together sometimes. The promoter also talked about the idea of Paul fighting Anthony Joshua in 2026:

"The guy knows how to generate headlines. You just have to be a little bit careful when you're looking for the money, the big moments. If you get it wrong in choosing, it's not a game. So if he wants to take a chance on a fight with Anthony Joshua, why not?"

While Paul's personal life is making news, the boxing world is getting ready for a big fight. Katie Taylor and Amanda Serrano will finish their trilogy on July 11, 2024.

Paul's career keeps growing in different areas. He's still boxing, making YouTube videos, running businesses, and finding new ways to stay famous and make money. Now, he's adding "engaged" to that list.
