On 25 October 2026, between takes of the twentieth episode of Muhtemel Aşk, the crew stopped filming and brought out a birthday cake. Ayça Ayşin Turan turned 34 on a set that was only supposed to run for one summer. The Show TV romantic comedy had done well enough to keep going into the autumn season.
It is the latest step in a steady climb. Turan broke through as the title character of Meryem in 2017, became a summer favourite as Haziran in Ada Masalı, which Italian viewers are now watching on Canale 5 as Be My Sunshine, and found a streaming audience with Netflix’s Sen İnandır (Make Me Believe). This year her on-screen partnership with Ekin Koç reached a third project. Here is her story.
Who Is Ayça Ayşin Turan?
Ayça Ayşin Turan is a Turkish actress known for the series Meryem, Ada Masalı, Vicdansız and Muhtemel Aşk, and for the Netflix romantic comedy Sen İnandır (Make Me Believe). In 2026 she leads Show TV’s Muhtemel Aşk as Defne, opposite Ekin Koç and Feyyaz Şerifoğlu.
How Old Is Ayça Ayşin Turan?
Ayça Ayşin Turan is 34 years old. She was born on 25 October 1992 in Sinop, on Turkey’s Black Sea coast, and celebrated her 34th birthday on the Muhtemel Aşk set.
Career
Meryem (2017)
Turan’s first leading role came in Meryem (2017) on Kanal D, produced by TMC, opposite Furkan Andıç. She played the title character, a young woman who takes the blame for a crime she did not commit to protect the man she loves. The role introduced her to a wide television audience.
Ada Masalı (2021)
Her biggest television hit to date is the Star TV summer romance Ada Masalı (2021), in which she played Haziran, a free-spirited young woman on an Aegean island, opposite Alp Navruz as Poyraz. The series sold abroad; in summer 2026 Italy’s Canale 5 began broadcasting it as Be My Sunshine.
Sen İnandır and Vicdansız (2023 to 2025)
Netflix’s Sen İnandır (Make Me Believe, 2023) paired her with Ekin Koç as Sahra, a woman whose grandmother schemes to reunite her with a childhood friend. The two reunited for Vicdansız, a TOD original psychological drama created by Levent Cantek that premiered on 18 December 2025. Koç plays Deniz, a ruthless finance executive searching for a woman named Vicdan, played by Turan.
What Is Ayça Ayşin Turan Doing Now? Muhtemel Aşk
Turan’s current series is Muhtemel Aşk on Show TV, produced by Asena Bülbüloğlu for MF Yapım and directed by Altan Dönmez. She plays Defne opposite Ekin Koç as Kadir, their third project together, with Feyyaz Şerifoğlu also in the lead cast. The romantic comedy, which mixes a legal storyline with a love triangle, premiered in June 2026 as a summer series and continued into the autumn. In late October the team was filming its twentieth episode. In August she also drew attention online when she stepped behind the camera to film one of Koç’s scenes.
Personal Life
Turan keeps her private life largely out of the press. She is not married. In 2022 her Ada Masalı co-star Alp Navruz publicly shared photos of the two together; she has not publicly discussed her relationships since.
Belloria’s View
Turan has built her career on chemistry, which is harder to manufacture than it looks. Her pairing with Alp Navruz made Ada Masalı a summer hit, and three projects with Ekin Koç in three years show that producers now see the two as a dependable on-screen couple. The risk is being typecast in romantic comedy. Vicdansız, a darker psychological story on streaming, was a smart counterweight, and the next test is whether she gets a dramatic lead on prime-time television.
