On Spotify, Jutes boasts over 200, 000 monthly listeners, though his work in music extends beyond his own moniker.

In his personal life, Jutes has been open about his sobriety journey, much like Lavato herself, and marked 100 days of being sober in July of 2022.
In terms of his relationship with Lovato, sources have suggested that the pair are in a happy and healthy place, and Jutes has shared his support of the pop star multiple times on social media. In various Instagram posts, Jutes has gushed over Lovatoās singing voice, which he described as āthe best in the gameā, and has elsewhere praised her as āgorgeous.ā
Jutes undoubtedly scored big points for his engagement ring, which was reportedly created in collaboration with the fine jewellery boutique, Material Good. Jutes worked closely on the design of the custom-made, pear-shaped diamond solitaire ring at Material Goodās retail store in New York City, collaborating with the boutiqueās designer Teresa Panico.
