After angrily bashing Bad Bunny on social media this weekend, Jake Paul tearfully celebrated his fiancée, Jutta Leerdam, winning her first gold medal at the Winter Olympics.

The Dutch speed skater broke the Olympic record en rote to winning the women’s 1000 meters race in Milan on Monday, with Paul crying from the stands.

After the race, Paul took to Instagram, where he posted a video of himself sobbing after Leerdam’s big win.

He also took to X, where he congratulated Leerdam.

“I can’t stop crying. You did it my love. Olympic Gold. God is great and so are you,” Paul tweeted,

Paul’s had a wild 24 hours, which began when he protested against watching the Apple Music Super Bowl LX Halftime Show, calling Bad Bunny a “fake American citizen” on Twitter, despite the six-time Grammy winner, who was born in Puerto Rico, being a U.S. citizen. Paul also owns a 12,000-square-foot mansion in Dorado, Puerto Rico, which he purchased last year.

“Let’s rally together and show big corporations they can’t just do whatever they want without consequences (which equals viewership for them),” Paul tweeted. “You are their benefit. Realize you have power. Turn off this halftime. A fake American citizen performing who publicly hates America. I cannot support that.”

Paul’s brother, Logan Paul, publicly disagreed with Jake via his own tweet. “Puerto Ricans are Americans & I’m happy they were given the opportunity to showcase the talent that comes from the island,” he wrote.
