Young people must overcome difficult obstacles on their way before they gain long-awaited happiness. Murat literally fell in love with millions of women and entered the list of ten most beautiful people in Turkey.
Personal life
Many famous and public figures do not separate personal life from work. More precisely, they are always closely intertwined. The same applies to Murat, the actor of the film "Love and Punishment." Actors in life are ordinary people who get married, raise children. His wife, actress Burchin Terzioglu, was the first and foremost critic for Murat before the divorce.

According to the actor himself, he did not expect such a development of events, referring to the film career. The young man had a penchant for mathematics, and therefore in the capital he applied to a technical university and successfully completed his studies. So, by profession Murat Yildirim is a mechanical engineer. In college, the future favorite of the audience was a regular in theaters, at the same time he studied at acting classes and even sang. And after graduation, despite a good technical specialty, it was the theater and cinema that chose the future Savash Baldar from the film “Love and Punishment”. Actors whose personal life is closely intertwined with the profession live a special life.
He met his future wife at one of the many castings, which he attended in search of a role. Later, he and Burchin starred in the film "The Tempest." At this time, their romance began, and two years later Burchin became his wife.
According to the wife herself, she, of course, was jealous of her husband for beautiful film partners and fans, but tried not to attach special importance to this. In the end, this is work and the whole crew is watching the bed scenes. Where does feeling come from here? And as for the fans, they are absolutely delicate and have never touched the Murat family, they did not disturb in vain.
It was rumored that the Murat family was against his marriage, and he married only under pressure from the Burchin family. Indeed, at first everything was fine, but then Murat and Burchin nevertheless divorced. It happened in 2014.

In 2004, her wedding was held with Jem Ezer. A year later, Nurgul gave birth to a son, Osman Nezhat, and in 2010 the couple broke up. The husband was not the one whom the actress dreamed of. Yes, he did not try to maintain a relationship. The constant employment of the actress, endless reproaches and scenes of jealousy took their toll. Child marriage did not save.
