CONFESSION IN THE LIBRARY
The famous actress also recounted a dialogue that took place one day when they visited Yılmaz Erdoğan's house. Ovalı shared the moment in front of a large library with these words:
"He turned to Caner and asked, 'Have you read this, dear Caner?' There was a moment of silence, my young girlhood was literally extinguished. I was thinking, 'Oh God, please don't let him say it.'
Caner Erkin's response surprised everyone.
"He turned and said, 'Bro, I've never read a book in my life.'
AFTER THE SILENCE, HE GAINED SYMPATHY
Ovalı stated that there was a brief silence in the room after these words, but Caner Erkin's honesty pleased Yılmaz Erdoğan.
"There was such a silence inside that I can say everyone was frozen. But Yılmaz brother really liked this honesty. He said, 'At least he's honest,' and from that day on, he started to like Caner a lot."
THE FIRST BOOK WAS THE LITTLE PRINCE
After this incident, Şükran Ovalı also mentioned that she made Caner Erkin read his first book. Ovalı stated that she made her husband read the world-famous work The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry.
