ALBAWABA - Hande Erçel played a role in Kerem Bürsin break up with Melisa Sabancı Tapan.

Kerem Bürsin and Melisa Sabancı Tapan, who had been dating for over a year, are no longer together, according to Turkish media. The breakup has led to new reports about Hande Erçel old relationship with the actor, especially since they have both been seen in public recently.

As of May of last year, Kerem Bürsin and Melisa Sabancı Tapan were seeing each other. The couple kept their relationship quiet and didn't show up in public together very often. In interviews, Bürsin revealed that they were dating and said that they were "pleased" together. Even so, there were rumors of a breakup more than once, but the pair always denied them. Melisa even sent them pictures from their trip to show that they were still together.

But now Turkish news sites say that the couple has broken up because they are too busy. Bürsin's work on TV and computer projects has made it hard for him to keep up with his personal life. Melisa Sabanc̱ Tapan, who doesn't talk about her personal life, is said to have agreed to the breakup without any problems.

Hande Erçel and Kerem Bürsin were recently seen at the funeral of Nilperi Şahinkaya's mother, which added to the rumors. Their calm look together got a lot of attention from the media because the two had been dating before. Fans and people on social media quickly thought that Hande's new relationship with Bürsin might have affected his personal life and led to his breakup with Melisa.

Hande Erçel also broke up with businessman Hakan Sabancı not long ago, after being together for almost three years. Reports say that family pressure and arguments about marriage may have played a part. A few news outlets have linked these events, making it seem like Hande and Kerem may be spending more time together now that both of their past relationships are over.

Hande Erçel, Kerem Bürsin, and Melisa Sabancı Tapan have not said for sure if Hande had anything to do with the split. For now, fans are still interested, and Turkish newspapers are still talking about how these famous people might date.
