Fulop was born as Catherine Amanda Fulop García on March 11, 1965, in Caracas, Venezuela. She is the fifth of eight children of Venezuelan Cleopatra García and Hungarian Jorge Fulop, and has six sisters and one brother. In an interview for Argentine magazine Gente in 2005, Fulop stated she "had had so many ex–boyfriends that she had lost count of them". In 1990, she married actor Fernando Carrillo, with whom she starred in Abigaíl (1988), Passionflower (1990) and Pretty Face (1994). They divorced in 1994, with Fulop accusing Carrillo he had been unfaithful.
Fulop married Osvaldo Sabatini, the brother of former Argentine tennis player Gabriela Sabatini in 1998. The couple has two daughters, Oriana Gabriela (born April 19, 1996) and Tiziana Beatriz (born June 1, 1999). Fulop and Sabatini briefly separated in 2001, but eventually reconciled. The family currently resides in Buenos Aires.
Fulop has been regarded as a sex symbol in Argentina. In 2006, she stated she had refused an offer from Playboy "because of her parents".

Famous quotes containing the words personal, media and/or life:
“If society gives up the right to impose the death penalty, then self help will appear again and personal vendettas will be around the corner.”
—Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe (1749–1832)
“Today the discredit of words is very great. Most of the time the media transmit lies. In the face of an intolerable world, words appear to change very little. State power has become congenitally deaf, which is why—but the editorialists forget it—terrorists are reduced to bombs and hijacking.”
—John Berger (b. 1926)
“Glorious bouquets and storms of applause ... are the trimmings which every artist naturally enjoys. But to move an audience in such a role, to hear in the applause that unmistakable note which breaks through good theatre manners and comes from the heart, is to feel that you have won through to life itself. Such pleasure does not vanish with the fall of the curtain, but becomes part of one’s own life.”
—Dame Alice Markova (b. 1910)
