The Winter Olympics are weeks in the past, but many of the athletes are still celebrating their big wins. That includes Jutta Leerdam of Team Netherlands, who finished first in the 1000m women’s speed skating event to win a gold medal one month ago.
She won the event exactly with a time of 1:12.31, which set a brand new Olympics record. Leerdam then followed that up with another medal performance, finishing second in the women’s 500m speed skating event at Milano Cortina, Italy, to claim the silver medal.
Throughout her competitions, she had her fiancé, professional boxer and social media star Jake Paul, cheering her on, and the couple has also shared celebratory videos on social media during and after the Olympics.
Those celebrations continue, as Paul shared another update on Monday, revealing that he surprised Leerdam with quite a gift in recognition of her significant achievements last month.
In a video post shared on Instagram, Paul covers Leerdam’s eyes with his hands as they stand outside, a shiny new black Mercedes-Benz G-Class wagon parked in front of them, complete with a red bow on the hood.
“Oh, my God!” Leerdam says once Paul removes his hands from her eyes, then she hugs and kisses him before running over to check out her new ride.
The footage shifts to Leerdam seated inside the car, checking out its interior, and then clapping her hands in excitement from behind the steering wheel.
“Oh, I can’t believe this. It’s so pretty!” she exclaims in the fun video clip.
“Only the best for my queen she worked hard for the gold and silver so I got her a bronze g wagon,” Paul wrote in his Instagram caption.
The upbeat IG video closes with Leerdam taking her new G-Class for a ride, beaming a bright smile as she waves out the window.

It’s quite a gift as recognition for Leerdam’s recent achievements in Italy. The Brabus G-Class typically starts at $375,000, but varies in price depending on the year, model, and package.
Leerdam won gold in the women’s 1000 m event at the Winter Olympics, followed by the silver medal in the women’s 500m event. The 27-year-old Dutch speed skater and Paul have been engaged since March 2025.
Before his Olympic appearances, Paul participated in a boxing match against former two-time unified heavyweight champion and IBF/WBO No. 1 Ranked Heavyweight Anthony Joshua. Unfortunately, that fight didn’t go in Paul’s favor, as he suffered the first knockout loss of his career at the hands of Joshua in the sixth round.
He also sustained a jaw injury at the event, requiring the installation of two titanium plates in his mouth. Along with that, Paul wasn’t able to eat solid foods for a week and lost several teeth.
In addition to all of that, he’s been catching some strays from his brother Logan Paul’s bold challenge to fight NFL stars in the boxing ring.
Former NFL All-Pro Le’Veon Bell recently fired shots at both Pauls after Logan, currently signed with WWE as a professional wrestler, said he couldn’t participate in the $1M fight he’d set up with Bell because WWE shut it down.
