Are Gupse Özay and Barış Arduç Getting a Divorce? Gupse’s Latest Move After Hande Erçel’s Scenes Sparks Speculation

The steamy scenes between Barış Arduç and Hande Erçel in their new series Aşkı Hatırla have sparked breakup rumors for both stars — separately. But what really has people talking is a recent move by Gupse Özay, reportedly her reaction to the show, which has only fueled the speculation that she and Barış Arduç might be heading for divorce.

Let’s break down the details.

Barış Arduç and Hande Erçel first shared the screen in the film Rüzgara Bırak, and their on-screen chemistry made headlines the moment the movie premiered.

Producers were quick to jump on the buzz. Right after the film gained traction, the duo signed on for two more projects.

One of those projects is Aşkı Hatırla, which just premiered on Disney. It marks their second collaboration, and it’s already been revealed that the two will star together again in a Korean series adaptation very soon.

Although there’s been no word yet on that third project, Aşkı Hatırla has already taken social media by storm. If you’ve watched it, you know — the love scenes between Barış and Hande are intense, the kind that leave viewers speechless. Unsurprisingly, social media chatter quickly turned toward Gupse Özay and Hakan Sabancı, with scenes being dissected on X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram.

Rumor has it, these passionate scenes have created real tension in both Hande and Barış’s personal relationships.

Just recently, during the Aşkı Hatırla premiere night, Barış Arduç's distant behavior toward Hande Erçel caught the eye of many fans. Right after that, people noticed that Gupse Özay didn’t publicly celebrate Father’s Day with Barış, who is the father of their daughter Jan Asya. The fact that she was absent from the gala altogether led to even more rumors — some saying she was “banned” from attending.

Similar claims have also surfaced about Hande Erçel and her boyfriend Hakan Sabancı. Allegedly, after watching the love scenes, Hakan walked out and temporarily left their home. Though the couple reportedly reconciled afterward, it’s said that Hande received a warning from the Sabancı family through Hakan.
