Comedian Hasan Can Kaya is set to tie the knot with Duygu Karabaş, a digital marketing agency owner, after a recent engagement ceremony. The couple officially began the process on March 12, 2026, when Kaya asked for Karabaş’s hand in marriage from her family.
The engagement ceremony will take place on March 29th at Ortaköy Feriye in Istanbul, with wedding preparations to follow swiftly. News of the upcoming nuptials has quickly spread through Turkish media, with details of Karabaş’s engagement ring too capturing public attention.
Karabaş, who also works as a portrait artist, has largely remained outside the public eye, a preference Kaya has openly acknowledged. “She’s not a celebrity. She has a good life and I don’t seek to disrupt her peace,” Kaya previously stated, adding that he intentionally keeps her off social media to protect her privacy.
The engagement follows a period of dating, and the couple was previously seen together on vacation last year, though Karabaş’s face was obscured at the time. Kaya’s rise to fame through his “Konuşanlar” (Talking) program, which began on YouTube and later moved to a digital platform, has made him one of Turkey’s most popular comedians. The show’s success is a testament to his improvisational humor and engaging style.
The news comes amid other celebrity engagement announcements. Actor Doğaç Yıldız recently proposed to Başak Çoruh in Egypt, sharing the moment on social media with a playful caption. İbrahim Selim and his partner announced their engagement, delighting fans with a joint statement about embarking on a “new journey.”
Karabaş’s ring has become a focal point of media coverage, with images circulating widely online. The engagement marks a significant moment for Kaya, who has largely kept his personal life private despite his growing professional success.
