STATEMENT FROM FULYA SEVER KAHVECI

A response to the allegations came from Nihat Kahveci's wife, Fulya Sever Kahveci. Sharing a post on her social media account, Kahveci used the following expressions:

"Nihat Kahveci and I have been married for 8 years since July 19, 2018, and we have two children. Despite being so much in the public eye, we have always managed to protect our relationship, our friendship, our companionship, and our togetherness within the framework of love and respect, and we will continue to do so from now on. Additionally, spouses may not agree on everything from time to time and may argue. But this will never create a situation where my husband would commit violence against me. I condemn such false news. I condemn those who report such news. You could have at least asked."
