Kerem Bürsin reveals how he has managed to work as a couple and make it a success

Kerem Bürsin is the Turkish actor of the moment. His international fame came with Love is in the air, a series that premiered in Turkey in June 2020 and aired in different countries months later. The fiction brought him enormous popularity outside the borders of his native country and, at the same time, gave him the opportunity to meet Hande Erçel, the woman with whom he now shares his life.

After months of rumors, they confirmed their relationship in the spring of 2021, before they started filming the second season of the soap opera. Therefore, in the filming of the next batch of episodes they had to find the balance between their personal and professional lives and not let what happened to them on a day-to-day basis affect Eda and Serkan Bolat's story - and the other way around.It can be said that they succeeded and, in an interview with Europa Press during the actor's visit to Gran Canaria, he has told how they managed it.

Well... It's work! You know? It's work. As with any other kind of work, you have to have your ethics, your rules, and do your job.

Their love story was forged little by little. As performers, they had to get into the skin of strangers who see how their paths inevitably end up together. To do so, they worked on their chemistry off-screen and made very good friends. First, they became great friends and, after a while, they realized that what they felt was more than just friendship.

In an interview with Silvia Toffanin on the Verissimo program, Bürsin stated that the long filming days - which stretch up to 16 hours - force them to get along with their co-workers. When they realized they loved each other, they waited a bit to see how they could act until they finally accepted that they wanted to be together. He himself admits that if their love had not been reciprocated, nothing would have happened, as Erçel is a great partner.
