Jutta's journey wasn't without hurdles. During qualifying trials, she suffered a crash that nearly dashed her hopes of competing. However, determined as ever, she bounced back and dominated the event to earn the top podium spot. "We look very young right now. We try our best," Leerdam said reflecting on her success and challenges.
Amidst Jutta's triumphant moment, Jake decided to make it even more memorable by hinting at what's next for them as a couple. He shared an emotional video capturing his support for Jutta and teased their future family plans.
"Hey little kids, here's your parents. You guys are not even born yet but we are making a video for you. Your mom is about to go for gold. I just bought her flowers. Your mom is really cute. We love you, even though you're not born yet,” Jake gushed in the clip.
Jake put his boxing career on pause to cheer on Jutta at the Games promising to be there for every crucial moment in her journey. “I'm going to take some time off [from boxing] and go and support Jutta at the Olympics and then she's going to move to Puerto Rico [where Paul lives],” he explained before adding his heartfelt confession about wanting kids soon.
Paul's desire to start a family has surfaced publicly before especially after facing setbacks like breaking his jaw in a fight against Anthony Joshua or missing out on having Jutta by his side due to conflicting schedules and sports commitments.
Relive those cherished words Jake shared online which highlight not just their love story but also how sport unites them both – setting new records together in arenas they call home.
