Here is Paul's relationship history before meeting Leerdam.
Tana Mongeau
- Dates: 2019-2020
A very publicized relationship, Paul and YouTuber/model Mongeau started dating in 2019 and revealed they were engaged not long after. However, per Insider, the engagement was more of an experiment to gain more views and fans.
"We all do things sometimes," Paul told ET. "And sometimes you end up getting fake married. So I'll leave it at that."
In an open relationship, the couple dealt with numerous setbacks. By January 2020, the pair had split up.
Julia Rose
- Dates: 2020-2023
Rose, an internet celebrity, was kicked out of a World Series game for flashing the crowd on live camera. She also founded SHAGMAG. When the two started dating, Rose accompanied Paul in every boxing bout he was part of.
They had an on-and-off relationship for three years with several highly publicized break-ups. The two split for good in December 2022 when Paul posted a pic with the caption 'picked the wrong Rose.'
