Osmanlı’nın Unutulan Gelini: Asporça Hatun | Neden Eşinin Yanına Gömülmedi?

A Byzantine princess, the wife of the second Ottoman Sultan, Orhan Gazi... However, when you visit the royal tombs in Bursa Tophane, you find her resting silently at the foot of the empire's founder, Osman Gazi, instead of beside her own husband. But why? While Nilüfer Hatun etched her name in history in golden letters as the Valide Sultan, why did Asporça Hatun remain in the shadows? What kind of life did this noble woman, whom Osman Gazi embraced saying, "She is like my own daughter," lead within the palace walls? And how did the greatest pain a mother can endure—the loss of a child—shape her tragic destiny? In this episode of Referans Tarih, we explore a bride's journey from the grand Byzantine palaces to the early Ottoman tents. We delve into the drama of Şehzade İbrahim and the silent secret held between those two tombs in Tophane.
