Following months of public silence and a turbulent period surrounding the death of television broadcaster Reha Muhtar, actor Deniz Uğur has relocated with her twin children to a quiet village house, embracing a rural life of farming, local community, and personal healing.
Months after the death of television broadcaster Reha Muhtar at age 67 in a Muğla hospital last June, actor Deniz Uğur broke her long public silence to share details of her complete lifestyle overhaul. The actor packed up her life in Istanbul and moved into a village home alongside her twin children, Mina Deniz and Poyraz Deniz, leaving the heavy urban chaos of the city far behind.
Trading Concrete for Cultivated Soil in the Countryside
The relocation marked a decisive shift for the family, who traded high-rise living for open land and agricultural routines. Far from city traffic, the household spends its days working the soil and eating fresh vegetables grown directly in their own garden, choosing a lifestyle centered around a tight-knit circle of sincere neighbors and loved ones.
Deniz Uğur stated via Sozcu that thank God they were well as a family, and that they wanted to spend that writing quietly and peacefully among themselves by binding their wounds and healing.
Reflecting on the change, Uğur noted that waking up to birdsong every morning and watching the turbulence of the world from a distance proved to be the correct decision for her household’s well-being.
Navigating Grief and Past Legal Battles
The move follows a deeply complicated public history. Uğur and Muhtar endured a lengthy and bitter custody dispute over their children prior to his passing. When Muhtar died in June, his past wishes made headlines; Muhtar had previously published a social media statement declaring that it was his testament to his loved ones that Deniz Uğur should not come to his funeral if he died. Respecting those stated wishes, Uğur did not attend the funeral services, though her twins did participate in honoring their father.
Rather than engaging with ongoing public commentary, Uğur chose to direct her energy inward. In her social media statements, she emphasized a step-by-step approach to overcoming crisis, noting that no one can solve every complication at once.
Deniz Uğur stated via Mynet that no one could solve everything all at once, and that sometimes it was necessary to handle events one by one.
Rebuilding Life and Looking Toward Future Projects
With her children close and a sustainable daily rhythm established, Uğur expressed deep gratitude for her current circumstances. She described how her household is consciously realigning to fit new realities, anchored by personal faith and resilience.
Deniz Uğur stated via Ensonhaber that praise be to God they were together and healthy, and that they were restructuring life by aligning themselves to adapt to changing conditions. She added that her mind was at ease because she knew the truth, noting that even if man makes plans, ultimately Allah’s will undoubtedly prevails.
While maintaining her quiet existence in the countryside for the time being, Uğur has also signaled a potential return to her professional life. According to a broadcast update shared with her followers, she plans to host a live broadcast soon to consult with her audience about a new acting project proposal she recently received.
