In 2021 it looked like the bullfighter’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top.

He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Ubrique Burger” chain) in Madrid, a Football Team (the “Ubrique Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderubrique - Spain), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Jesulín) and a fashion line called “Jesulín de Ubrique Seduction”.
