He Wouldn’t Accept Disrespect Toward His Mother: The Alleged Reason Hakan Sabancı Blocked Hande Erçel Has Been Revealed

Now that Hande Erçel and Hakan Sabancı’s breakup seems official, what’s left is how the whole process played out on social media. The end of their relationship wasn’t confirmed by just one headline—it became clear step by step through a series of moves: first the photos were deleted, then they unfollowed each other. Most recently, blocking rumors involving Arzu Sabancı have taken over the conversation.

Let’s take a closer look at the details…

The first strong sign from Hande and Hakan’s side came in August 2025. Hande Erçel removed her photos with Sabancı from Instagram, which was seen as confirming the breakup.

Not long after, reports claimed that Hakan Sabancı also deleted his posts with Hande. At the time, it was noted that even though both sides “cleared” their photos, they continued following each other for a while.

The next step was the move that ended the “Is there still a chance they’ll get back together?” debate. By the end of November, it was reported that Hande Erçel and Hakan Sabancı had stopped following each other on Instagram.

Then, after Hakan Sabancı was spotted in Miami—first at a party and then shopping with Naz Şahin—“Is he turning a new page?” comments naturally picked up speed, and Sabancı’s social media move also drew attention.

According to Yağmur Çevik, it was claimed that Hakan Sabancı blocked Hande Erçel.

The claim was that Hande Erçel blocked Arzu Sabancı on Instagram, and that Hakan Sabancı responded by blocking Hande Erçel.

Meanwhile, Arzu Sabancı’s name was frequently mentioned throughout the breakup, but in a statement she made in September 2025, she emphasized that the family did not interfere in the relationship and that the decision to split belonged to the two people involved. Hakan Sabancı similarly said the breakup was not related to third parties or family.
