I've been staring at the screen for so long, my eyes are tearing up and my head's hurting ,but I still can't stop watching episode after episode. This series so addictive.
Selim gets such a bad reputation. It's likely that any Sultan during this time would have ended up with the empire the same way. The world changed too much. Wasn't going to stay the same.
Manolis knew that he could not give a gift to compare in value to what other guests would give, but the spindle would probably be something from heart to heart.
Hatice was born depressed, melancholic and suicidal. Almost all her scenes show her as depressed. Infact others were also sad and grim but Hatice is the most negative. Even Ibrahim couldn't stand her negativity. No wonder Hurrem was called the pleasant one and loved by all. She brings so much of energy.
I think, now that she finally has everything she wanted, she’s afraid of losing it again like she did last time. Her first husband died two months into the marriage. Ibrahim is younger and healthier, yes, but she actually loves him him. So losing him will be harder than the last one.
@trishakapur2619 Thee actress portraying Hattice is excellent in her role, imagine how difficult it must have been for her,She deserves lots of praise for her dedication So wieso this drama was first aired on Turkish Television in 2011 and finished in 2014. Saturday 24th June 2023.
No for real the timing might be odd but she literally get pregnant like every 4-6 months after having her baby being born. I’m sure she had 3 kids in 2 .5 years!
In real life, the year for this episode is 1524. Selim was born to Hurrem during the wedding celebration in May, 1524. And remember Ibrahim did not marry Hatice, Suleyman’s sister. Suleyman arranged his marriage to the granddaughter, Muhsine Hatun, of Ibrahim’s first slave master, for political reasons. From what I’ve read, I think the real Hurrem was more like the character Gulfem, quieter but smiling and laughing more. In real life, Hurrem didn’t have the many enemies as in this show. Plus, the harem wasn’t in Topkapi Palace. It was in the Old Palace and ALL the harem women lived there at this point. The outing that the character Suleyman arranges for Hurrem and himself is plausible, especially since they lived in separate palaces over 2 miles apart. He may have done this fairly often so that he could get her away from the children and all to himself. He also went to the Old Palace to visit his mother, any sisters, Mahidevran and Mustafa, and Hurrem and her children. Hurrem and Ibrahim had never even met, and Hafsa Valide, Suleyman’s mother, was fair to Mahidevran and Hurrem equally. Leo, Sadika, Guinihal and many other characters are fictional and didn’t pose problems for Hurrem. She lived a quieter life as a favorite concubine and mother to Suleyman’s children. Hurrem was also still being educated in Turkish, Arabic, and geography, history and managing money in the Old Palace. She had a very busy routine, and Suleyman, her “beloved man” was her first priority because she loved him and he loved her. His early poems to her were especially passionate and sweet.
I need to explain the source for most of what I’ve written here. A very interesting and top notch nonfiction biography of Hurrem is by Ottoman historian, Professor Leslie Peirce (2018) “Empress of the East: How a European Slave Girl Became Queen of the Ottoman Empire” Dr. Peirce is a scholar and researcher and is committed to presenting the truth about Hurrem, Suleyman, and the real people and their extraordinary real lives. I’m a retired Research Data Librarian and I owe this excellent TV series with introducing me to this magnificent century in the Ottoman Empire. The show is fiction and was developed to be a fictional version of what is a wonderful true story. In the true details of this time, these people who really lived can come alive. Remember: there’s so much fiction built into this story that all the characters are really fictional characters, and some plots are disrespectful to the real people who lived. Enjoy the show but please don’t judge any of the real people by the portrayals meant to be a money-making production. IMHO, It’s not fair. Thanks.🙂👩🏼💻🤷🏼♀️
Mahidevran looks amazing in green (signifies her jealousy?), Gulfem looks amazing in purple, Hurrem looks amazing in red (her fiery personality), Hatice looks amazing in bright red, and the Valide Sultan looks beautiful in every color.
Yes, he was heart broken, but he is risking the life of Hurrem. What does he thinks, Hurrem ask him to go away. She had new life now. She loves Leo but he is in the past.
What was he expecting? That Alexandra, after all those years, would be, every day, taking a chair to Istanbul's main square to sit down and wait for him to come and take her home and marry her?
@@Patruizis Exactly! That had to be almost 10 year's later. Did he actually expect Alexandra to be a free woman in the ancient world, with that type of beauty. She landed in luxury but she would be fine wherever she landed. She had to make the best of a bad situation and she did that and more.
For everyone confused on Mustapha being aged up it actually makes sense if you do the math. He was about 5-6 in the first episode, we can infer that’s Hurrem was in the palace for atleast 6 months before getting pregnant and then each pregnancy is 9 months long. So one can argue it’s been around 4 years ish. Mustapha being anywhere from 9-10 now makes sense.
Oh yeah right... Lol do your own maths... In episode 6 he was still a lil kid.. nd episode 17th didn't had anything like months ago or years ago... Both the episodes continued one to very next day... So how he grew up in two days... But he did not grew up in 16 episodes that is 5-6 years... He grew up in 2 days but not in 5-6 years... The problem is they changes mustafa in a day...without saying 2 years later or anything like that.. he grew up very next day of mehmet falling in the pool

I love hurrem how she shows her love & affection to suleyman she's very vocal & shows what she feels. Hurrem kids are all cute & lovable,,, slowly she learn her battle in palace☺️
Are you kidding me?? I hate to see Hurrem..i fast forward everytine her scene came up 😂. I hate to see her evil face and she has a rotten heart & nad attitude. Mahidevran instead is a very elegant, beautiful and calm sultan.
@@ledatufarulo7316 hurrem smart?? Oh my god...she is evil !! Theres a different between smart and evil!! I hate to see when she smirks. She hates mahidevran, then she hates any concubines that go to sultan suleyman. Such a selfish witch!! What goes around comes around!!
@@SelevanRsC In the serial at least hatice has more than enough reasons to hate her. Hürrem used her or better said tried to she allways tried to make troubles and problems especially regarding ibrahim who is her husband...and hürrwm also was the one who started making problems with ibrahim.
One of the interesting things about this empire was that a person of very low estate, birth etc., could by their skills, drive and wits, could climb the ladder as high as second place to the Sultan. Unlike European kingdoms that relied on birthright for positions of authority, the Ottomans relied on the merits of the individual. This brought a lot of talent into the kingdom from their neighbors. Example: Ibrahim. But this was very common in Ottoman society.
Low class Turks remained in the class they were born into their entire lives. Only the European slaves were allowed to rise. Not out of goodness and morality. It was eugenic. The Turks bought millions of European slaves from the Muslim Tatars. Turkish slave raiders went as far north as Finland Iceland and Green land to raid for European slaves. They preferred children. Partly because children, like calves are smaller and easier to transport. Out of a thousand slaves only a few rose to a middle class life and position. For every girl in the imperial harem or harem of a decent man, thousands died in nasty brothels. Or were worked to death. There were many black African women slaves. But no mulatto children. And no descendants of those black African women slaves. Because every black baby was either aborted or smothered at birth. Horrendous was captured by Tatars about age 8. She was sold to the harem at about 15. Imagine what her life was like the 7 years she was in the slave barracks. Not all Europeans stayed into the class in which they were born. Many low born nuns monks and priests rise by talent. From butcher’s son to Martin Luther. From small farmer’s son to bishop. The series is great. But remember the reality. For every Ibrahim and Hurrem there were millions s of kidnapped European slaves leading wretched lives.
@@ledatufarulo7316 I think she meant that her hair, makeup, and outfits were on point. Any period piece will have its inaccuracies. But women showing their décolletés during this time was actually not uncommon. Breasts being sexual by society is actually a fairly modern thing. Back then, if you wanted to leave a man hot and panting, you showed him your ankles. Lol.
@@elopuff8575 That'll maybe be camera techniques in moderation compared to the old 1940s methods that made girls' faces glow angelic. It works, anyhows, combined with the (when we look closer) make up on her cheeks. He holds herself with Motherly dignity and those amazing dark eyes.
Dreading to get to that stage. Humble poor guy, handsome kid, in love, with talent most of us can only envy, yet he stands no chance it seems with social climbing Hurrem
@@Kelly14UK It's not hurries fault, everything was taken away from her too. She had to social climb to survive, trust me she would love to run away from the palace with leo but it is impossible.
@@Kelly14UK she thought he was dead.. she moved on.. she had two children and is pregnant. What, you want her to leave her children to die to run away with Leo when she’s in LOVE with Suleyman? Come on now.. I FEEL for Leo, there is no good resolution for this situation.
@@HilwaSedai Of course not. she's obviously moved on, and Leo accepted this and tried to get home, but couldn't due to the Yeni Cheri trouble. But everything's all about her. Another one i cant' stand is Mehidevran, though i've more empathy for her.
If you are in love , consider yourself left alone . If you are a Emperor , consider yourself a slave . My dear , the rose thinks it and your cheeks are alike... forgive it for these words. You , my fairy , consider me burning in flames for your love . You Muhibbi , if you are looking for a taste of her sweet lips , go for some sugar . Don't be proud of your prime , consider yourself a grain in the harvest. What a nice poem of Sultan Suleiman to hurrem ❤️
He wished for peace in the palace, he found peace with the one woman he loved, yet he wanted more, that's when the trouble starts, men just don't get it.
@@veronicagonmei6098 it’s just a drama this drama show many lies and no real characters, in real life he was only with hurrem and no other women, the director want to add drama for viewers or else will be boring
Tip from Hürrem Shower your man with compliments, then everything will be under your control 😂😂😂. Modern women's lesson 101 for letting your husband wash the dishes. 😅✌️
Seeing Ibrahim fumble over Hatice's buttons made me chuckle until I realized that technically, Ibrahim is more than likely a Virgin, but Hatice is not because she was married before. 😅😅
Years have passed before they have their first date ! It's good to see them together with No Hassle! And sultan gave hurrem a pair of budgerigars ! In my country we called that Lovebirds ❤️
Gulfem is so loyal and kind. Though I love how strong Hurrem is and how passionate Mahidevran is, both women can be unbearable annoying sometimes. Gulfem seems to be the most suitable Haseki. Too bad she lost her children 🥲
hurrem really really wanted peace and no fights, but they really pushed her to be whoever she became, that is why no matter what she do i still find her right and innocent. the poor girl had no support except the sultan’s and that too in bed only, while the rest of the day he would be busy, she is really strong and deserves nothing but the best.
Just wondering how different things would have been if Mahidevran just accepted her fate and stopped taunting Hurrem. I think Hurrem was about to be civil towards her, with Mahi saving Mehmet, and the gift for Selim, but she was triggered when Mahi taunted her about Mustapha ascending the throne. Clearly she's not willing to make peace with Hurrem.
I think they’re lives would’ve been different. Everyone could’ve lived peacefully. Mustafa would’ve let his brothers live and govern the country with him. Hurrem and Mihrimah would’ve lived peacefully away from the palace and Mahidevran would’ve been Valide. But nope she was too spiteful and caused a train wreck
Hurrem was just as nasty to Mahi, at least in this series. Hurrem tried to poison Mustafa and eventually managed to have him killed with Rustem Pasha. They both manipulated the gullible Sulieman. Mustafa would have been magnificent. He had all the qualities and everyone loved him. Sulieman got jealous.
Oh my God since I watch this movie I can't control my self how many episodes I've watched. My time is set here, sometimes I sleep in the evening my time left is 2 hours before I take a rest 😣😣 very nice movie ever 😍😍😍😍 but I miss Mustafa hes very cute but he's becoming beg boy now 😫😫😫😭😭
@@ledatufarulo7316 lol,no it's not that easy .. you will have to provide for all 4...how many Muslim men do you know who have 4 wives...some can't even take care of one😁
Matrakci was an eminent person of Empire....he was a math..a philosoph and the sultan's lifestory teller....he always tells whom he is ...although he looks easygoing and a little vagabond....
It is just so impressive how Victoria is still so truly loyal to her king. She was just a lady in Hungarian loyal family. She had a rich and easy life before, then her husband was killed in a war, so she sneaked in the palace as a slave, to take her husband's revenge with knowing that she will be tortured and killed if she touches the king, because if you kill the king, they would rip you apart. Now she has been living in the palace for almost 2 years but she is still stick to her plan.
Yes... and Hurrem forgot about her revenge plan after falling in love with Suleiman; then focused it only on the royal family. Two woman with two different revenge paths...
@@velvetengel But it’s not same thing. Sultan and his soldiers killed Victoria’s husband themselves, so she can revenge directly on Suleyman. But Hürrem’s family died during a Tatar raid. It was also them who take Hürrem as a slave and sold to Crimeans. And crimeans send her to the Ottoman palace as a “gift”. So even though she kills Suleyman, this truly change anything.
They are not accustomed to using dining table, paintings.. . Back then it was a "western' thing. The first look on Hatije n Valide sultan shows. And the paintings too. Im glad to learn this tiny details and many more even though from drama.
Yes, and women's looks are more like european. Well, it's not documentary. But I think they had more to listen to historians, maybe the story could seem more realistic
The dresses are compliyely invented and absolutely not historical. Women never wearing so open and sexy dresses and they never went out and if they did they use to cover their face. Women were really prisoners and were used Only to have babies and get pregnant. Anyway life condition in that periodo were so dofficult that staing in sultan Palace was better than Living in another place poor
I dont know why Matrcki allowed Ibraham to put Victoria in the harem in the first place . Did he want the possibility of Suleiman sleeping with her? He already liked her he should told ibraham that he would take of her & eventually marry her
You are right - but I think back then the law with single woman out of country coming in - may it was not possible for him to just marry her .. but it’s crazy how far she has come .. and soltan didn’t remember her ... even that hard was cut open by her .. ebrahim didn’t let him talk .. if ebrahim either could let her marry or .. find out who she is !!!!
Hurrem could be a lot to handle at time but she truly tried to make things work with Ibrahim and Mahidevran. They chose violence and she responded in kind. Also, it’s seems like no one can be happy for Hurrem and Suleiman when Mahidevran is around she brings a Grey cloud wherever she goes smh it’s kind of depressing.
Is it just me or does Hatice ain't pleased about that table, which is gorgeous btw. You could tell that Hatice was so excited about kissing Ibrahim. Holy cow, her wedding dress too!!!!! Give the costume designer an Oscar for the costumes!!!!
Can we just freeze time here??? Pleaseeee😭😭😭 no death no sadness. Just happiness. Hatice loving Hürrem, Süleyman loving Hürrem, Valide loving Hürrem.. ahhh
13:40 Gulfem smirks seeing Mahidevran get jealous over Hatice and Hurrem’s bonding. Her reactions are very subtle she does have some moments when she riles up Mahidevran considering Mahidevran was the one who replaced her as the leading consort before Hurrem.
I know right!! The way he is gonna cheat sis 💅✨ I watched this show right when it came out when we were thirsting and waiting for the next episodes every week so I was devastated when he cheated on Hatice with Nigar
I swear if all the Turkish men speak words and poetry like that to all of their women no wonder these women were at each others throats. Honestly some of the poetry and words of love these men speak to the women makes my heart melt. So beautiful 🥰 Let's face it all the Turkish men are so handsome, manly and speak beautifully with a true appreciation for women. The only problem I see is there are too many women for one man!!!
38:41 Meryem's acting was impeccable here. As a pregnant woman that is about to guve birth, she is PERFECTLY ON POINT! She is the perfect Hurrem indeed ❤️
Mahidevran was sad at Selim's birth. But he was the one who gave her respected life back when became a Sultan. Also started giving her allowance again.
The attitude oh Mahidebran, was the worst for happiness. She knew the rules and must be the first and showed. But she decided that horrible gray and unhappy life for feeling jealousy sickness.
Vaide: dont brag its a prince
Hurrem: ill take ur advise
Also Hurrem: a prince is on its way.

They both had a clothing allowance, she could have stepped up her game if she wanted Sulyman attention.
@@eleniasimop can’t stand her
I think Hatices wardrobe is far superior .
@@lindsaycaress450 yeah thats true.
I still wonder where do all his love for Hurrem go when he sees a cute girl??
Would you like your women to get laid with another man? That's what happens there.
@@tearmonster7726 no Hurrem was a virgin when she entered the Harem
It goes to his “little head”
Mustafa was so upset when Mehmet fell in the water, he wasn't able to be a child anymore afterwards.
😂😂😂
😂😂😂
I felt bad when Gulnihal betrayed Hurrem but can't hate her ,her smile is like flowers blooming she is an angel ❤
Hattice and ibrahim didn’t speak a word at their wedding night and got intimate without wasting a single second 😂😂
It means they were waiting for long time for intimacy🤣🤣🤣
😂😂lmao
😂
😂😂😂
They talked too much with all the maktoub and letters they send each other .. not forget to mention the garden ceremony 🙄
I LOVE SULTAN SULEYMAN'S CHARACTER. VERY CALM, CHARISMATIC , MANLY & OF COZ HANDSOME!
Hurrem's laugh is to die for .❤
One of the interesting things about this empire was that a person of very low estate, birth etc., could by their skills, drive and wits, could climb the ladder as high as second place to the Sultan. Unlike European kingdoms that relied on birthright for positions of authority, the Ottomans relied on the merits of the individual. This brought a lot of talent into the kingdom from their neighbors. Example: Ibrahim. But this was very common in Ottoman society.
Low class Turks remained in the class they were born into their entire lives. Only the European slaves were allowed to rise. Not out of goodness and morality. It was eugenic. The Turks bought millions of European slaves from the Muslim Tatars. Turkish slave raiders went as far north as Finland Iceland and Green land to raid for European slaves. They preferred children. Partly because children, like calves are smaller and easier to transport. Out of a thousand slaves only a few rose to a middle class life and position. For every girl in the imperial harem or harem of a decent man, thousands died in nasty brothels. Or were worked to death. There were many black African women slaves. But no mulatto children. And no descendants of those black African women slaves. Because every black baby was either aborted or smothered at birth. Horrendous was captured by Tatars about age 8. She was sold to the harem at about 15. Imagine what her life was like the 7 years she was in the slave barracks.
Not all Europeans stayed into the class in which they were born. Many low born nuns monks and priests rise by talent. From butcher’s son to Martin Luther. From small farmer’s son to bishop. The series is great. But remember the reality. For every Ibrahim and Hurrem there were millions s of kidnapped European slaves leading wretched lives.
Hurrem was totally gorgeous in these episodes. The stylists were on point during this era lol
No, it IS not historical, many many things are wrong. Women showing their décolleté? 😅😅😅
@@ledatufarulo7316 Not really worried about it being historically accurate lol
@@ledatufarulo7316 I think she meant that her hair, makeup, and outfits were on point. Any period piece will have its inaccuracies. But women showing their décolletés during this time was actually not uncommon. Breasts being sexual by society is actually a fairly modern thing. Back then, if you wanted to leave a man hot and panting, you showed him your ankles. Lol.
@@ledatufarulo7316 Just the fat cow, Hurrem. The other actresses were more modest with the clothing.
@@Pashasmom1 don be so mean..
I will miss the old cute Mustafa
Me too.
me too...
Bende
But the grown up Mustafa is extremely cute - or, better say, handsome, too)
@@elenakulikova347 Mehmet is better
Valide sultan had a special camera for her, smooth skin like camera filter 😂
She's some kind of miracle, the actress is about 66 here. She glows.
@@Kelly14UK wow! I thought she is 50 - 55! Such a beauty and a great actress too
@@oxanatarashchuk4598 Same here, a bit of a shocker, her being born during ww2. Turns out the actress was Miss Turkey or something in 1960.
Yes and it always blurs when the camera is on her 😂
@@elopuff8575 That'll maybe be camera techniques in moderation compared to the old 1940s methods that made girls' faces glow angelic. It works, anyhows, combined with the (when we look closer) make up on her cheeks. He holds herself with Motherly dignity and those amazing dark eyes.
It was really touching my heart and soul when Ibrahim Pasha hug his father and his twin brother😥😭😢
Only Ibrahim makes me cry a lot, especially when he go back to parga.. A really good actor😊
Poor leo,, she's not your alexandra anymore...
Would Hurrem be so fast to save Mustafa from a pond? I don't like her.
@@Kelly14UK what does that have to do with this comment????
@@AB-om2te I felt like saying it for the hell of it : )
@@Kelly14UK 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣you lost
She did say it after the name was given to her "Alexandra died hurrem is born"
I don't like Ibrahim's character, but the actor is really good at playing him. It's fun to see him in the dual role of his brother
I was a bit shock when they showed Mustafa grown up a lot...
5 years enhagement.... Wow
@@ledatufarulo7316 They doesn't showed the time
I think what they were aiming for was to show Mustafa as 8 turning 9 , which makes sense if he was 5-6 in first episode.
“My children must be waiting for me” -Hurrem
No; no, just Mahideveran
😂😂✨
😂
That was hilarious! Funniest comment of the year. A+😂😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅
Man I feel so bad for Leo. Poor guy had everything taken from him
Dreading to get to that stage. Humble poor guy, handsome kid, in love, with talent most of us can only envy, yet he stands no chance it seems with social climbing Hurrem
@@Kelly14UK It's not hurries fault, everything was taken away from her too. She had to social climb to survive, trust me she would love to run away from the palace with leo but it is impossible.
@@Kelly14UK she thought he was dead.. she moved on.. she had two children and is pregnant. What, you want her to leave her children to die to run away with Leo when she’s in LOVE with Suleyman? Come on now..
I FEEL for Leo, there is no good resolution for this situation.
@@HilwaSedai Of course not. she's obviously moved on, and Leo accepted this and tried to get home, but couldn't due to the Yeni Cheri trouble. But everything's all about her. Another one i cant' stand is Mehidevran, though i've more empathy for her.
@@Kelly14UK she already has 2 kids !
45:10 Hatice looks beautiful in her wedding attire. Red is such a good color for weddings
I know this show has already ended, but in my heart I wish Leo ended up with someone sweet like Gulnihal or Nigar Kalfa.
Leo dies to save huraam
Poor leo, he was so kind, carefull, faithfull, handsome, gentleman
Thats not all. He was very selfish: forcing her for a date. He knows and she also that was forbidden and very dangerous!
If you are in love ,
consider yourself left alone .
If you are a Emperor ,
consider yourself a slave .
My dear , the rose thinks it
and your cheeks are alike...
forgive it for these words.
You , my fairy ,
consider me burning in flames for your love .
You Muhibbi ,
if you are looking for a taste of her
sweet lips , go for some sugar .
Don't be proud of your prime ,
consider yourself a grain in the harvest.
What a nice poem of Sultan Suleiman to hurrem ❤️
Yes
Yeah
Then he sees a cutie and oops... they made this sultan a pervert
If someone recites this for me I'd become immortal
@@cuttostah yes i agree!
He wished for peace in the palace, he found peace with the one woman he loved, yet he wanted more, that's when the trouble starts, men just don't get it.
Sooo true. You better control your D or break up with her already 🙄
Thats true....in one way Suleiman is not fit to be Sultan he don't know how to judge equal to his wives as he treat to his children.He is powerless
@@veronicagonmei6098 it’s just a drama this drama show many lies and no real characters, in real life he was only with hurrem and no other women, the director want to add drama for viewers or else will be boring
Tip from Hürrem
Shower your man with compliments, then everything will be under your control 😂😂😂.
Modern women's lesson 101 for letting your husband wash the dishes. 😅✌️
Yasssss
Hahaha
Hahaha
Exactly
Well, hubby not an emperor...
You must feed the ego
“You're the most precious jewel.”
👍👍👍
Hurrem is super lucky, but she lost a great guy. Poor Leo. I'll take him hahaha hes so precious
Seeing Ibrahim fumble over Hatice's buttons made me chuckle until I realized that technically, Ibrahim is more than likely a Virgin, but Hatice is not because she was married before. 😅😅
No he’s not a virgin….. he had an affair previously with Hatice older sister , she just doesn’t know it.
Echt jetzt ?
Hatice didn't consummate the marriage with the old dude, they were married for only two months as well. Also... spoilers
@@Cynthia-ok5iy when?
@@ushakushwaha3971 To my knowledge it doesn’t say when . But it’s a very long time ago I think.
Years have passed before they have their first date ! It's good to see them together with No Hassle! And sultan gave hurrem a pair of budgerigars ! In my country we called that Lovebirds ❤️
In my country we call them "нерозлучники" (nerozluchnyky) which means "inseparables". That is very symbolic
First date after 3 kids! Long over due
@@oxanatarashchuk4598j
@@HilwaSedai 😂😂😂
@@oxanatarashchuk4598 same in Polish! "Nierozłączki"!
Oh! Every child of Hurrem is super cute! 💞💞💞
All of them adorable ✨
Wait until they grow up, especially Mehmet and Mihirimah
Gulfem is so loyal and kind. Though I love how strong Hurrem is and how passionate Mahidevran is, both women can be unbearable annoying sometimes. Gulfem seems to be the most suitable Haseki. Too bad she lost her children 🥲
hurrem really really wanted peace and no fights, but they really pushed her to be whoever she became, that is why no matter what she do i still find her right and innocent.
the poor girl had no support except the sultan’s and that too in bed only, while the rest of the day he would be busy, she is really strong and deserves nothing but the best.
She's cheap 3rd class.. not innocent. She poisoned her best friend's face
@@Blurufoodaz ok stfu i like her
@raj same
Agreed
You seem to be in strongest favor of Hurrem, no matter what. Try to think logically also
Just wondering how different things would have been if Mahidevran just accepted her fate and stopped taunting Hurrem. I think Hurrem was about to be civil towards her, with Mahi saving Mehmet, and the gift for Selim, but she was triggered when Mahi taunted her about Mustapha ascending the throne. Clearly she's not willing to make peace with Hurrem.
I believe that historically, Mahi always opposed Hurrem, what a pity!
Such jealousy killed any like I had for Mahidrevan! Ugh
I think they’re lives would’ve been different. Everyone could’ve lived peacefully. Mustafa would’ve let his brothers live and govern the country with him. Hurrem and Mihrimah would’ve lived peacefully away from the palace and Mahidevran would’ve been Valide. But nope she was too spiteful and caused a train wreck
Hurrem was just as nasty to Mahi, at least in this series. Hurrem tried to poison Mustafa and eventually managed to have him killed with Rustem Pasha. They both manipulated the gullible Sulieman. Mustafa would have been magnificent. He had all the qualities and everyone loved him. Sulieman got jealous.
Oh my God since I watch this movie I can't control my self how many episodes I've watched. My time is set here, sometimes I sleep in the evening my time left is 2 hours before I take a rest 😣😣 very nice movie ever 😍😍😍😍 but I miss Mustafa hes very cute but he's becoming beg boy now 😫😫😫😭😭
Same with me
Same here😄 i didn't even notice the time its almost morning im still watching 😁
Same here😊
😂😂😂same here....
Same here
Hautice is beautiful finally she get marred to long last lover nice match ameen
Poor Hatice, not knowing that Ibrahim's gonna betray her in future. :((
Well, I guess that, if all people knew what is to befall them in the future regarding to relationships and marriage, nobody would even start one.
May can happen everywere but between muslims IS more easy of course, every Man can marry 4 women and have more lovers
@@ledatufarulo7316 lol,no it's not that easy .. you will have to provide for all 4...how many Muslim men do you know who have 4 wives...some can't even take care of one😁
And be killed...
Ey don't give spoilers man . People like you are the worst to watch movies and series with .
Harrem's smile and laughter 😢😍❤
I'm so tired of our new generation, that everytime Suleiman express his love to hurrem I felt as if he is flirting 😂😂
Matrakshi nashu efendi is a person who cares and shows warmth to outsiders like sadika Leo balibey Ibrahims brother and father.
Matrakci was an eminent person of Empire....he was a math..a philosoph and the sultan's lifestory teller....he always tells whom he is ...although he looks easygoing and a little vagabond....
@@amangardeleon9853 Oh, he was a historical person? Interesting
I like his person so much
Who's Bali bey??
Hatice is so gorgeous with her red wedding gown.. and the matching necklace is equally beautiful.!
She's gorgeous
I just love the way hurram laughs😘
same here..
Hatice- will never take that necklace off me 😛😂
And the first thing he did was to remove it...lol
😂😂😂 Ikr..and of it came same evening
Mustafa appears to have had a bit of a growth spurt since the last episode (which for me was yesterday). Feed that kid!!
😁😁😁
🤣🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣L😃l
The child is also looking a bit unfamiliar to his dad. I mean talking about actors. Mini Mustafa was so mixed up with the family members
@@munazahadnan9838 So true. Looks like Mustafa grew to be depressed. :(
It is just so impressive how Victoria is still so truly loyal to her king. She was just a lady in Hungarian loyal family. She had a rich and easy life before, then her husband was killed in a war, so she sneaked in the palace as a slave, to take her husband's revenge with knowing that she will be tortured and killed if she touches the king, because if you kill the king, they would rip you apart. Now she has been living in the palace for almost 2 years but she is still stick to her plan.
Yes... and Hurrem forgot about her revenge plan after falling in love with Suleiman; then focused it only on the royal family. Two woman with two different revenge paths...
@@velvetengel But it’s not same thing. Sultan and his soldiers killed Victoria’s husband themselves, so she can revenge directly on Suleyman. But Hürrem’s family died during a Tatar raid. It was also them who take Hürrem as a slave and sold to Crimeans. And crimeans send her to the Ottoman palace as a “gift”. So even though she kills Suleyman, this truly change anything.
Leo 🤧😢😭 that was torture to know the woman you love is with child and the father is the Sultan of the world.
In this magnificent episode I have noticed one paculiar thing that instead of mouth the beautiful eyes are speaking. Applause to it.
Everyone speaking with their beautiful eyes
They are not accustomed to using dining table, paintings.. . Back then it was a "western' thing. The first look on Hatije n Valide sultan shows. And the paintings too. Im glad to learn this tiny details and many more even though from drama.
Yes, and women's looks are more like european. Well, it's not documentary. But I think they had more to listen to historians, maybe the story could seem more realistic
The dresses are compliyely invented and absolutely not historical. Women never wearing so open and sexy dresses and they never went out and if they did they use to cover their face. Women were really prisoners and were used Only to have babies and get pregnant. Anyway life condition in that periodo were so dofficult that staing in sultan Palace was better than Living in another place poor
Suleiman is so romantic 💕
The "tik tik tik tik tik" made by mihrimah rlly melted me lmao 😭
Love that he gave her parakeets (love birds) for their summer time in the tent.
I dont know why Matrcki allowed Ibraham to put Victoria in the harem in the first place . Did he want the possibility of Suleiman sleeping with her? He already liked her he should told ibraham that he would take of her & eventually marry her
He only wanted a safe place for her being a girl. Rest is storyline
You are right - but I think back then the law with single woman out of country coming in - may it was not possible for him to just marry her .. but it’s crazy how far she has come .. and soltan didn’t remember her ... even that hard was cut open by her .. ebrahim didn’t let him talk .. if ebrahim either could let her marry or .. find out who she is !!!!
Hurrem could be a lot to handle at time but she truly tried to make things work with Ibrahim and Mahidevran. They chose violence and she responded in kind. Also, it’s seems like no one can be happy for Hurrem and Suleiman when Mahidevran is around she brings a Grey cloud wherever she goes smh it’s kind of depressing.
Is it just me or does Hatice ain't pleased about that table, which is gorgeous btw. You could tell that Hatice was so excited about kissing Ibrahim. Holy cow, her wedding dress too!!!!! Give the costume designer an Oscar for the costumes!!!!
Hurrum s beauty is at another level, her hair not only of beautiful colour but the curls make them so nice
Can we just freeze time here??? Pleaseeee😭😭😭 no death no sadness. Just happiness. Hatice loving Hürrem, Süleyman loving Hürrem, Valide loving Hürrem.. ahhh
what a beauty....Hurrem in white dress and little dance....❤️❤️
that was funny since she just had pain then start dancing like oh nothing happened 😄
@@ra_808 it had been happening to me too when I was pregnant. Many times big pain was coming and gone away in a moment.
13:40 Gulfem smirks seeing Mahidevran get jealous over Hatice and Hurrem’s bonding. Her reactions are very subtle she does have some moments when she riles up Mahidevran considering Mahidevran was the one who replaced her as the leading consort before Hurrem.
I cry most of the time about the life of Ibrahim with his family.
11:21 the moment Nigar khalfa fell for Ibrahim. Even before he married Hatice 😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
I know right!! The way he is gonna cheat sis 💅✨
I watched this show right when it came out when we were thirsting and waiting for the next episodes every week so I was devastated when he cheated on Hatice with Nigar
Like how delicately they brought in Leo character
Hurrem's hair super curly like this looks amazing
Feeling heart broken poor Leo his one n only true love 😢love from India
And I bet Hurrem returned pregnant with Bayacet from that getaway trip with the Sultan 🤣🤣🤣
No she gets pregnant with beyazid the night gulsah stabbed gulnihal.
When Ibrahim opened her dress I saw the plastic button under the red silk and ruined me🤣😅 plastic is modern invention 🤦♀️
They say the devil lies in the detail 😅
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The fire crakers too
I thought if sultan Hatica meets the love of her life will look happy...she still looks same as before😐🙄
Well, I think her face is like plastic, really feels unnatural
Lol, so ture, her face is like this. Infact they should have chosen some one better for the role
Seriously, she has a depressing vibe wherever she goes.... Hatice seemed to be psychologically ill
I love hurrems laugh.
Chemistry between sultan suleiman and hurrem sultana is amazing ❤️
Selma Ergeç (Hatice) looking awesome in that red dress
She has a figure of menniquin, every dress suite her
@@munazahadnan9838 she’s beautiful and in real life very very smart
@@HilwaSedai i heard she's psychiatrist Dr
@@munazahadnan9838 yes very educated and quite accomplished! She’s a fantastic actress to portray the neurotic Hatice
That first night scene between Ibrahim and Hatice was ❤️❤️....
I swear if all the Turkish men speak words and poetry like that to all of their women no wonder these women were at each others throats. Honestly some of the poetry and words of love these men speak to the women makes my heart melt. So beautiful 🥰
Let's face it all the Turkish men are so handsome, manly and speak beautifully with a true appreciation for women. The only problem I see is there are too many women for one man!!!
I just discovered this show lately and it is my favourite!!
I’m finally almost to where I was when I was watching on Netflix.. excited to see more finally 😎
38:41 Meryem's acting was impeccable here. As a pregnant woman that is about to guve birth, she is PERFECTLY ON POINT! She is the perfect Hurrem indeed ❤️
Watching in 2021
Really addicted
😍😍😍❤️❤️
Mahidevran was sad at Selim's birth. But he was the one who gave her respected life back when became a Sultan. Also started giving her allowance again.
24:17 I see Ibrahim’s vest was sponsored by Coach
😂
Coach has been around forever it seems, lol!! 🤣
Wow Coach sticks with what works I guess 😂
FINALY SOMEONE MENTIONED IT 😂😂
The attitude oh Mahidebran, was the worst for happiness. She knew the rules and must be the first and showed. But she decided that horrible gray and unhappy life for feeling jealousy sickness.
I really dislike her character in this show. What a fantastic actress Nur is!
