The only daughter of loving parents

One of the most beautiful women in Turkey was born on June 19, 1984 in Istanbul. Her parents are third generation natives of Istanbul. His father is the owner of an electronics sales company and is known as the first person to bring air conditioners to Turkey. The girl’s mother is a housewife, but comprehensively developed: at different times she was interested in politics, folk dancing, and painting.


On a walk

In general, Birce’s childhood was prosperous and took place in a creative environment. Her parents always took her opinion into account. At the age of four, she expressed a desire to dance, and they immediately took her to ballet school. They predicted a great future for her in world ballet. But when the time came to determine her path, Birge chose the theater.

Different sources indicate different reasons for the girl’s departure from the world of ballet. Some say that it is typical of creative people to suddenly change direction. Others cite the fact that the failed ballerina received a serious injury, which put an end to her dancing classes.

Being very young, the girl realized her childhood dream. She took part in the Miss Turkey beauty contest, reached the final and took third place. This allowed her to break into television. Birce Akalay commented on sporting events for some time. As for education, everything was quite contradictory here too. First, she entered Istanbul University to study drama and theater criticism. But the university’s policies did not suit her, and she dropped out in her second year. Later, the future actress finally completed her education, but already at Halic University, she studied at the theater department.

Childhood and youth

The biography of Birce Akalay began in the ancient capital of Turkey - the city of Istanbul. The girl was born in June 1984 into the family of Serjan and Yasemin Akalaj.

The father and mother, who had no other children, sought to please their only daughter in everything and made sure that she grew up in an atmosphere of love and mutual understanding. When the child showed an interest in dancing at an early age, the parents without hesitation agreed with the teachers of the choreographic studio.

Birce Akalaj in childhood
Until she graduated from secondary school, those around her believed that ballet would be the girl’s future profession. However, at age 16, she was injured and stopped attending classes.

In 2003, Birce, who did not want to part with the world of art, entered an educational institution called Pera Fine Arts High School, and then the Faculty of Theater Studies at Istanbul State University. During her student years, Akalai, who was 178 cm tall, attended classes at an agency that trained catwalk models, so she studied somehow.

In 2004, she took 3rd place in the national beauty contest and got the chance to compete for the title of Miss Europe. Feeling that her place was on stage, the girl took her documents from a prestigious university and moved to Halic University, famous for its abundance of creative directions.

At the same time, Birce began her professional career on Turkish television. She read sports news, reviewed Champions League football matches and was the host of thematic programs aired on central and cable channels.

We start our careers small and quickly fly up

Thanks to the expressive oriental features and determination of the girl, she wants to show her talent to the whole world and begins to take bold steps in the modeling business. In 2004, she took third place in the Miss Turkey modeling competition. Next, at the European beauty contest, she decided to represent her beloved country and lasted until the semi-finals. I tried my hand at television. She led sports projects for three years (2004 - 2007) - “8th stage”, also “Champions League”, “TV8 sport spikilerin” and “Star TV”. The girl could not engage in active sports due to an injury she received in childhood; only Pilates and yoga remained.

Movies

In 2006, Akalai unexpectedly changed her role and played episodic roles in the television melodramas “Fate” and “Asi.” The young actress was noticed by directors who shot feature films. The next step in the profession was participation in the films “Alarm”, “Final Course. Love at the University", "Uprising" and "Winter's Tale". The girl recreated the images of the minor characters Ozlem, Sevim, Sevtap and Zeeshan.

Birja came to national fame after the premiere of the multi-part project “Between Heaven and Earth.” Since 2010, viewers have been watching with trepidation the fate of Havva Karagul, one of the main characters in the story about two completely different sisters. Fans of the melodrama, in the center of which there was a love triangle, were pleased with the unexpected plot twists. The Istanbul native received some praise for her portrayal of a determined woman fighting for love.

When work on the first season was completed, the Turkish actress was showered with very tempting offers. From 2011 to 2013, the filmography was replenished with the projects “I Love You All,” “I Loved Him Very Much,” and “Every Marriage Deserves a Second Chance.”

In 2014, the audience saw Akalai in the show “Little Boy”; after some time, two more series with her participation were released. University graduate Khalicha combined her work in the pavilions where directors Nissan Akman and Hamdi Alkan produced the serials “Married and Angry” and “Life is Sometimes Beautiful” with filming in Murat Seker’s feature film “The Mad Forester.”

Until a certain point, the projects in which the actress appeared were popular mostly in Turkey. International recognition was achieved only in 2022 after the release of the dramatic saga “Black and White Love” by Yasin Uslu and Emir Khalilzadeh.

Birja got the role of Doctor Asli Chinar, who by coincidence fell into the hands of bandits. In addition to the theme of fighting criminal gangs, the series featured a romantic storyline. The Turkish heroine met Ferhat, a member of a criminal group, and proved that love can defeat even the most inveterate evil.

The image of Ferhat on the screen was recreated by the popular actor Ibrahim Çelikkol. Akalai said she was happy to work with such a qualified partner. From the interview it followed that the most memorable moment was the filming of the trailer, where the main characters danced a fiery tango. The colleagues, who knew little about each other, realized from the beginning of rehearsals that they would form a harmonious and well-coordinated team.

Birce's contribution to the development of national television was appreciated by experts and viewers. The leading actress in the series “Black and White Love” received the 9th KTÜ Media Awards and Istanbul University 1453 Awards.

After the project was closed, the Istanbul native accepted Feride Kaytan’s offer and played the main character in the serial family drama “Don’t Cry, Mom.” In 2020, two seasons of the action-packed epic “Babylon” made a strong impression on the public.

Inner world and work

Birge loves animals very much, especially ginger cats. He maintains his own pages on Twitter and Instagram, where he communicates with his fans. She is not indifferent to tattoos and has already been able to decorate her body with them. The most spectacular one is on the right shoulder - this is a multi-colored butterfly.

There was a time when the girl turned to a plastic surgeon, according to the paparazzi, to slightly correct her facial features. Birge slightly corrected the features of her nose, which had previously confused her with a wide bridge and a large tip. The difference in appearance is small, but still there.

They said that the actress gives “beauty injections” so that her beautiful face remains wrinkle-free for a long time. She pumped up her upper lip, because in the last photos it was noticeably swollen, even the shape of her mouth as a whole had changed. But it still remains a mystery - either the makeup artists are magicians or the actress is trying to prolong her youth on her own.

Personal life

As a child, the actress, like most girls, dreamed of a handsome prince. Having matured, she decided to build relationships based on the strengths of men.

In the early 2010s, Murat Yunalmysh, the leading actor in the television series “Between Heaven and Earth” and a colleague on the set, appeared in Akalai’s personal life. In 2011, a Turkish woman entered into an official marriage for the first time.

Unfortunately, the feelings did not pass the strength test: after some time, the husband and wife separated.

Sarp Levendoğlu ve Birce Akalay evleniyor!

Birce Akalay and ex-husband Sarp Levendoglu
In 2014, Birce's loneliness was brightened up by the talented beauty Sarp Levendoglu. For three years, the couple lived in love and harmony and often appeared at events together. In 2017, fans of films and TV series were shocked to learn that the actor, who starred in two parts of the series “Order, Commander” and other popular projects, filed for divorce due to insurmountable differences.

The public learned that the cause of the family conflict was that Akalai, who cared about her career, categorically did not want to become a mother. A man who honored national traditions and dreamed of an heir was ready to sacrifice a lot for the sake of having children.

When love grows cold

People of art must understand that they do not have a personal life, and if they do have one, it will be accessible to fans in a certain way. This is difficult to get used to, you need to understand it. Even the most “yellow” publication in Turkey will not be able to list the men in the life of our heroine, and it is hardly worth doing. It is enough to name those representatives of the stronger sex who were officially in Birge’s life. There were only two attempts. The first one dates back to 2010. It was then that the actress fell in love with Murat Unalmysh, her colleague in the film “Heavenly Love”. The relationship developed so rapidly that the following year the couple got married and had a memorable wedding in the semi-desert region of central Turkey - Cappadocia. However, this did not help, after a year and several months the love cooled down.


Together with Can Tunaly

In 2014, the press exaggerated Birge’s new novel in every possible way. Again it was an “office romance”. This time - with Sarp Levendoglu, a partner in the series “Little Boss” (2014). Probably, the stars were against this marriage, which broke up in 2022. They say that this allegedly happened after her husband cheated on her right on the set of one of the series. Cruel, if true. Be that as it may, the star of Turkish TV series is officially free, although, as the tabloids say, she currently has a crush in the person of Can Tunaly. True, these relationships are far from ideal.

And also about the celebrity’s appearance. Compared to the face at the beginning of his career, the current appearance has changed significantly. Most likely, the beauty resorted to the services of a plastic surgeon.


My tattoos are my pride

Birce Akalay now

In 2022, Akalay starred in the television series “The Flight of the Bird” together with Ibrahim Çelikkol, İrem Sak, Miray Daner and Defne Kayalar. The director of the comedy project was Deniz Yorulmazer, who had previously presented the dramas “Winter Row”, “The Knot” and “Little Murders” to the public.

Birce Akalaj Tattoo

Akalai is an active Instagram user. In her official account, in addition to announcements of films and TV series, she publishes photographs with friends and family members.

Plastic surgery

According to experts, Birce Akalai's nose underwent rhinoplasty. Comparing photographs of a girl in her youth, you can notice that the wings of the nose have become smaller and the tip more refined. We don’t see any major changes, but the actress clearly carefully adjusted her shape.

The Turkish beauty also added volume to her lips. Hyaluronic fillers helped her with this and made her smile even more beautiful.

As for her breasts, the girl is quite satisfied with her second size. However, the actress does not exclude the possibility that she may turn to surgeons in the future, after she has children.

Birge boasts an ideal complexion and smooth skin. The star herself claims that it’s a matter of heredity and high-quality caring cosmetics, but experts are sure that Botox could not have happened here.

Recently, the girl has a new hobby - tattoos. The actress has many colored designs on her body and is not going to stop.

The Turkish star knows how to competently correct her appearance, without losing her naturalness, the main thing is not to overdo it and not become too beautiful, otherwise her companions will go completely crazy with jealousy.
