Neslihan Atagül
Neslihan Atagül herself, who recently became a mother, would never call her marriage to Kadir Doğulu toxic. But her fans have often sounded the alarm, criticizing Kadir for his dismissive behavior toward the actress.
Some even believe her career troubles started because of him — that he didn’t want his wife to become more famous than he was. Endless rumors about his infidelity, her repeated attempts to defend him in the press, and even her decision to cut ties with relatives who spoke negatively about Kadir only fueled speculation that something was off.
Right now, the media storm has quieted down. But it wouldn’t be surprising if one day Kadir were spotted again with unknown women — and Neslihan once more insisted that everything was misunderstood. Especially now that they have a child together.
Gizem Soysaldi
At first glance, Gizem Soysaldi may not be a household name, yet she’s been part of several well-known productions, including Evlilik Hakkında Her Şey and Arka Sokaklar. What really brought her into the spotlight, however, was her marriage to Halit Ergenç — and the way it ended.
Halit has openly acknowledged that he wasn’t the best partner. During Gizem’s pregnancy he was unfaithful, reportedly more than once, with the woman who later became his wife, Bergüzar Korel. For Gizem, it was a crushing betrayal, and instead of trying to repair the damage, Halit chose to end the marriage.
There was talk at the time that Gizem decided not to carry the baby to term. Whatever the truth, she eventually managed to rebuild her personal life and, in 2012, married again. By all appearances, she has moved forward, though it’s hard to look back on that period as anything but deeply painful.
Dilan Çiçek Deniz
One of the most talked-about romances in Turkish social media was Dilan Çiçek Deniz and Furkan Andıç. Things moved fast: they moved in together, and the press even started hinting at wedding plans.
But marriage never happened. Paparazzi caught Furkan kissing his “just a friend,” Özge Özacar. Dilan immediately ended the relationship, kicking him out of their shared home. In public, she tried to make it look like an amicable split, but privately, it was a double betrayal — not only from her boyfriend, but also from Özge, a close friend since their days filming Tatlı Küçük Yalancılar.
Losing both a partner and a friend at once — if that’s not toxic, I don’t know what is.
Meryem Uzerli
When it comes to relationships, Meryem Uzerli hasn’t had the easiest journey. Her involvement with businessman Can Ateş was especially difficult and left a lasting mark.
On the surface everything looked perfect — expensive gifts, romantic gestures, and eventually a pregnancy that resulted in the birth of her daughter. But behind the public image was a very different story. Meryem herself has said the experience turned into one of the hardest chapters of her life. Once Can felt secure that she had fallen for him, the manipulation began. He treated her less like a partner and more like someone to control — even insisting she should have an abortion.
She refused. Instead, she found the strength to leave him, walked away from Muhteşem Yüzyıl (Magnificent Century), and returned to Germany. There she gave birth to her daughter and slowly healed from the toxic ordeal.
Berkay Hardal
Berkay Hardal’s stormy relationship with Hira Koyuncuoğlu has been widely reported, but let’s revisit it. The two met on the set of İstanbullu Gelin and quickly became a couple. At first, they seemed like a perfect match.
But Hira’s fiery temperament soon caused problems. Jealousy led to frequent fights, which sometimes escalated into physical confrontations. Turkish tabloids even claimed that during one explosive argument, she threw a knife at him. Thankfully, no one was hurt, but the cycle of breakups and reconciliations continued.
In the end, Berkay’s heavy filming schedule for Meleklerin Aşkı made it nearly impossible to keep things going. With so little time left for Hira, the two eventually admitted it wasn’t working and chose to go their separate ways.
