Seamus Lyte, the UK agent to the late Carrie Fisher, has died at his home in Los Angeles of glioblastoma. He was 54.
The founder and Managing Partner of Seamus Lyte Management passed away peacefully last week with his husband of ten years, Andrew Wishart, by his side.
His death followed a three-year battle with glioblastoma, a fast-growing and highly-aggressive form of brain cancer, according to Lyte’s friend, Independent Talent Group agent Laura Hill.
Lyte’s career spanned 25 years, during which he built a unique roster of clients including Star Wars actor Fisher, British meteorologist Siân Lloyd, actor and presenter Christopher Biggins, couturier David Emanuel and TV host and radio DJ Tyler West.
Hill said: “Seamus will be deeply missed by all whose lives he touched. His legacy as a talented and highly respected entertainment professional will continue to inspire and bring joy to those who remember him.”
