He appeared wearing a blue prison jumpsuit in Midland Magistrates Court on Friday and spoke only to acknowledge his name.
Nuttall was arrested after police were called to a house on Reid Street in Bassendean about midday on Wednesday, responding to reports of a serious incident.
A 30-year-old woman was found with stab wounds at the scene and taken to Royal Perth Hospital, where she later died.

This masthead understands Nuttall and the woman were engaged, and had just returned home to Perth following a vacation.
Nuttall, who is from the north-east suburb of Brigadoon, graduated from the University of Notre Dame with a bachelor of philosophy in 2019.
The description of the podcast he launched with a friend states it is “where reality gets a reality check”.
