Ron Meyer, the former vice chairman of NBCUniversal, was involved in a scandal in 2020 that led to his departure. The scandal revolved around an extramarital affair with actress Charlotte Kirk, and now, new information has emerged linking him to another affair.
Reports from The Hollywood Reporter indicate that Meyer, 80, had a romantic relationship with Liz Fuller, 48, in 2019. This affair came to light after allegations of hush money payments to Kirk, 32, were made public, uncovering Meyer’s involvement with Fuller who had recently started collaborating with Kirk.
Following the inquiries from THR regarding their connections to Meyer, both Kirk and Fuller, a former beauty queen, decided to end their professional association. The exact circumstances of how Kirk and Fuller initially met remain unclear at this time.
Meyer’s 25-year run at NBCUniversal concluded in August of 2020 after he acknowledged having settled a lawsuit with Kirk, who remains pursing a substantial portion of the payment Meyer had past agreed to, according to THR.
Kirk was also linked to a high-profile affair with ex-Warner Bros. Entertainment exec Kevin Tsujihara that led to his exit from the company in March of 2019, shortly before Meyer and Fuller crossed paths.
Meyer parted ways with NBCUniversal after admitting he and Kirk had been involved in a sexual relationship in 2013, at the time she was 18. Insiders told THR that Meyer had entered into a $2 million agreement with Kirk not to disclose the information publicly.

Fuller spoke about her April 2019 affair with Meyer in an email sent in January 2021 during a time in which she was looking for an attorney ‘presumably to initiate an action against Meyer’ following his 2020 exit from NBCUniversal under the aforementioned circumstances, according to the outlet.
Fuller said that a client she had who was training Meyer – at the time executive vice chairman for NBCUniversal – in the gym had introduced them.
Fuller said in her communications reviewed by THR about Meyer, ‘He flirted and gave me the impression he was looking for love and to date me seriously.
‘He reassured me he was the nicest guy in town, that age didn’t matter and handed over the CAA Powerhouse book (penned by author James Andrew Miller in 2016) so I could read up on who he was.’
Fuller said in her email of Meyer: ‘He gave me the impression he was a gentleman and again he reassured me he was not a player.’
Meyer, who had been single when he crossed paths with Fuller, had breakfast with her at the restaurant Cecconi’s in West Hollywood, California.
Fuller said that Meyer had spoken with her about his access to flying on private jets and potentially traveling to London.
They eventually linked up in an April 28, 2019 encounter Fuller described in her email as ‘passionate … and sexy,’ at which time Meyer presented her with a wishbone necklace his daughter Jennifer Meyer, the ex-wife of actor Tobey Maguire, designed.

She said that she was surprised he was ‘covered with tattoos’ when undressed and not looking like a ‘corporate man.’
Fuller said that she ‘was literally putty and vulnerable in his company,’ but eventually felt ‘played’ by the end of things.
Fuller said that her mutual contact with Meyer told her he’d witnessed an actress walking out of his bedroom at 6 a.m.
Fuller said in her email, ‘I said wow who was she? He said she’s a famous brunette in her 30s and in Universal films but wouldn’t say who.’
Fuller said when she confronted Meyer with the information, he told her she ‘was a blonde beauty queen and that he thought [she] was a fun time girl,’ later becoming more hostile in his tone.
Fuller said Meyer boasted he possessed the ‘largest hammer in this town and could bring it down on [her] at anytime’ professionally.
Fuller said in a November 12 Instagram post that she had been representing Kirk, according to THR, writing, ‘Excited to be working with the exceptional Charlotte Kirk! Perhaps single-handedly the leading up and coming bad a**.’
The outlet reported that they were told by ‘a friend of Fuller’s [who] declined to give her name’ that Fuller is ‘no longer is Kirk’s manager,’ which added that Kirk’s agent had learned of the news from their reporting.
