How Did Hafsanur Sancaktutan React to Kubilay Aka Saying : I’d Like to Change Her Last Name?

Just a few days ago, actor Kubilay Aka appeared on İbrahim Selim ile Bu Gece and surprised everyone by saying he’d like to change his girlfriend Hafsanur Sancaktutan’s last name. Many took this as a strong hint at marriage. Naturally, when Hafsanur herself appeared on the same show shortly after, she was asked about Kubilay’s comment.

So, how did Hafsanur interpret his statement about her last name? Let’s take a look…

Kubilay Aka and Hafsanur Sancaktutan have been making headlines with their relationship for quite some time now.

Some fans think they’re the perfect match, while others seem to be bothered by their romance. A big reason for the criticism? Kubilay’s well-known reputation as a ladies' man in the tabloids.

Many people admire Hafsanur for her elegance and grace, and they don’t think Kubilay is a good fit for her. There’s also the infamous “no good men left” comment that still lingers in the minds of fans…

If you recall, the timing of their relationship raised eyebrows. Just days before it became public, Hafsanur had been asked in an interview if there was someone special in her life. She had responded, “There are no decent men left.” So when news of her romance with Kubilay broke, many people were left confused. How could a new love bloom so quickly when she had just said there was “no one out there”?

Still, despite the criticism and skepticism, the relationship endured—and it’s going strong. Whether people approve or not.

During the interview, Hafsanur’s name came up quite a bit. One particular moment quickly went viral on X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram.

İbrahim asked Kubilay: “If you could change one thing about Hafsanur, what would it be?”

Kubilay’s answer? “Her last name.”

Social media users immediately jumped on the comment, interpreting it as a subtle way of saying he wants to marry her.

Exactly one week later, it was Hafsanur’s turn to appear on İbrahim Selim ile Bu Gece.

She was asked the exact same question: “If you could change one thing about Kubilay, what would it be?”

Before she could answer, İbrahim turned to the audience and asked, “What do you think Kubilay meant by changing her last name?”

He explained that he and his team debated between two theories:

1. He wants to marry her.

2. He just doesn’t like her last name.

Hafsanur responded, “That’s how I interpreted it too.”
She believed Kubilay said it because he doesn’t like her surname.

She added, “He jokes about it all the time. He says, ‘Hafsanur Sancaktutan is too long, love. I need to rescue you from that.’”

In the end, it seems like they were both hinting at the same thing—but Hafsanur didn’t want to make it sound like a proposal. Maybe she just didn’t want to fuel the marriage rumors any further.

Naturally, the internet didn’t stay quiet. Those who can’t stand seeing the couple together were quick to drop their opinions once again.
