Serkan Çayoğlu is also frequently on the agenda with his love affair with his colleague Özge Gürel, whom he met in the Çilek Mevsimi (meaning: Cherry Season) series and has been with since 2015. The two had been separated for a long time because of the Kıbrıs Zafere Doğru TV series. When there was a difficulty in going back and forth for 6 months during the pandemic process, the two lovers were longing for each other.
Özge Gürel later went to the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus and visited her lover, and the couple shared these happy moments on social media. After the series finale, they came together again. The series made its finale in December. Serkan Çayoğlu was told that new project proposals came after this series.
