He managed the Spice Girls, created teen band S Club 7, and launched Pop Idol in , which went on to be sold to 46 countries around the world. But he fell out with his former business partner Simon Cowell, who acted as a judge on the British and U.
Unlike the stars he promotes, Fuller likes to keep his private life below the radar. In , he married blonde interior designer Natalie Swanston, who is 18 years his junior, and the couple now have a two-year-old daughter. His reticence, does not however, extend to his assessment of his own talent. One thing that seems certain is that thanks to his Wimbledon success, Andy Murray and the man pulling his strings are about to get even richer.

Bright eyes, glowing skin Sticking up for your mates is commendable, The year-old made his name with raucous entertainment, managing the Spice Girls and creating Pop Idol and Brand Beckham but has a reputation for reticence. He usually lets his actions, or his acts, speak for themselves. His company XIX Entertainment did not respond to requests for a comment on this article. Fuller has been involved in sports as well as music management since the s, and branched out into the fashion world in with both Victoria Beckham and Roland Mouret.
Professionally, that is: he married long-term girlfriend Natalie Swanston in and they now have a daughter. Clearly, sport is where the excitement is these days. Not to mention the money. These days, Goldsmith suggests, advertisers see a greater value in sportsmen than in musicians and actors, thanks in part to the success of the Olympics. Everything in the celebrity world is about timing, about being there and grabbing the opportunity. He adds that the two disciplines have always been pretty much the same thing, but the forging of the Beckhams whom Fuller introduced to each other into a cohesive, multidisciplinary unit shifted everything up a gear.
If you take a footballer they are generally a bit one dimensional, but Beckham with his wife opened up these different media opportunities. It's a great opportunity. If I want to set up an exhibition or a charity or a school or an academy or whatever, I just think if you are with a bigger company these sort of things become easier.
Industry insiders are split on the wisdom of the move with some questioning whether Murray would not be better off with a more traditional sports agency. But Fuller's elevated position in the entertainment industry on both sides of the Atlantic will help move Murray into rarified company. The move to secure Murray could also signal a more concerted effort to move into sport by the company.
Insiders say Fuller has a policy of only signing one key name in each sport and will only take on those he believes have the potential to become global stars. Another recent foray into sport by 19 was unsuccessful after a high-profile environmental project for Honda foundered and some observers saw it as a contributory factor to the team's decision to pull out of formula one altogether.
And aside from its success with Beckham, who was already a global star, 19's other sporting work has been more low key. For the past year, for example, it has handled the affairs of Team England.
