Even though their future is still uncertain, Ruffa is steadfast in not returning to Istanbul where she and her husband built their home.
"I don't want to go back to Istanbul anymore," she stressed.
Yilmaz reacted, "Because whatever she said, right now, I not agree because it's not up to the country. If my wife there, I'm gonna stay there. When you love each other, the country is not really important."

"I think he should apologize to my family. I don't know if it's the right time now. I think they're both not ready to face each other because there's a lot of emotion involved. Of course, you can't blame my parents as well because you started sending all these nasty messages to them," advised Ruffa to her husband.
Yilmaz agreed, "Her family, I don't have really a problem. If I know the Ruffa, she's not safe here, she not will gonna come here alone. I'm so sorry I'm not trying to again show I have a power something like this. I'm not gonna send it to her alone because she is queen to my heart and queen of to this huge family.
"She will gonna bring the personal bodyguards, my relatives and then assistants from my side to I can be relaxed she in good hands. Mother of two kids and then you're my wife, you have to be careful."

"Yes, why not," Yilmaz said, smiling.
