The truth about he and Burcin is he met his wife in 2006 on the serial “Firtina” where they portrayed the two lovers Ali & Zeynep; the chemistry between them was there but did not click instantly due to personality. But eventually they fell in love and married 2 years later. It is reported that they did live together for a period of time.
He said that he realized that Burcin was truly the woman he would spend the rest of his life with when in front of the camera Ali declared his love of Zeynep, he said he felts shivers in his body when he did this and that he called the characters name as Burcin in error in which she corrected him saying but I am Zeynep, in that moment he realized for sure that this was the woman he wanted to spend to the rest of his life with.
