Personal life

Sabancı is notably private about her personal life, purposefully keeping quiet about her relationships. [16] As of 2021, she was in a relationship with Eda Taşpınar.[17][18]

Sabancı has ongoing legal battles with her family regarding her father's exclusion from the family fortune prior to his death in 1979. Despite viewing Sakıp Sabancı as her idol, alongside her siblings, she was forced into fighting to obtain her rightful position and status within the family.
