Biography

Hatice's birth date is unknown, but she had to be born before 1494.[2] She was the daughter of Şehzade Selim (the future Selim I) and his concubine Hafsa. She may have married Damat Iskender Pasha in 1509, an Ottoman governor and later admiral who was executed in 1515.[2]

It had long been believed that Hatice Sultan subsequently married the grand vizier Pargalı Ibrahim Pasha. However, in the late 2000s research conducted by the historian Ebru Turan revealed that this claim was not based on solid evidence, and that in fact no such marriage ever took place between them. As a result, historians now generally agree that Ibrahim married another woman, Muhsine Hatun, and not Hatice.[3]

In the TV series Muhteşem Yüzyıl, Hatice Sultan is played by Turkish-German actress Selma Ergeç.[4]
