ALBAWABA - Hande Erçel subtly responds to Barış Arduç and Gupse Özay rumors.

According to recent allegations in Turkish media, it has been indicated that actor Barış Arduç and his wife, Gupse Özay, who is also a screenwriter and actress, might be experiencing a difficult period in their relationship. Speculation has arisen following the publication of Disney+'s forthcoming series Aşkı Hatırla, in which Barış Arduç stars alongside Hande Erçel. A significant amount of attention has been drawn to the series since it contains personal sequences between the key characters.

Fans noted that Gupse Özay had archived some of her Instagram images with Barış Arduç, which gave fuel to the suspicions that were already plaguing the internet. Additionally, she did not post a message congratulating him on Father's Day, which some people read as a possible indication of difficulty in their relationship. On the other hand, neither side has issued an official statement concerning the existence of marital problems or the possibility of a separation.

By openly expressing his support for his wife's most recent endeavor, Barış Arduç gave the impression of providing an indirect response to the suspicions that were circulating. Gobi is an animated film that was created and voiced by Gupse Özay. He shared the poster for the film in his Instagram story. There was widespread consensus that the gesture was a sign that their relationship had not been damaged in any way.

While all was going on, Hande Erçel also posted on Instagram, providing photographs from behind the scenes of Aşkı Hatırla, including one with Arduç. Only the word "Reminder" appeared in her caption. Erçel has not provided any form of commentary regarding the rumors, and she continues to make public appearances alongside her long-term partner, Hakan Sabancı.

A split between Barış Arduç and Gupse Özay has not been confirmed by any substantial proof, although gossip pertaining to this matter continues. In spite of this, both continue to concentrate on their individual projects and jobs.
