Artist Emel Sayın answered the questions directed at her about wills and inheritance before the concert; she said she did not consider preparing a will and did not want to have a dispute over inheritance with her nieces and nephews whom she loves like her own children.
Emel Sayın, one of the master names of Turkish art music, stated that she has never considered preparing a will to date. While answering the inheritance question directed at her before a concert, the artist emphasized that she did not want a dispute to arise within her family on this matter.
The question came in the days when a debate that started on social media over the inheritance of master actor Kadir İnanır was on the agenda.
According to what Sözcü reported, Sayın explained that inheritance is a subject that makes her uncomfortable with these words: "Inheritance is a subject that bothers me and makes me uncomfortable. Because unexpected unpleasantness can sometimes occur among families."
"I HAVE NEPHEWS AND NIECES WHOM I LOVE LIKE MY OWN CHILDREN"
Recalling that she had lost most of her family, the artist expressed her devotion to her nephews and nieces as follows: "I have already lost a large part of my family. I have nephews and nieces whom I love like my own children. I would never want such a thing to happen among us."
Asked whether she had prepared a will, Sayın said, "I have never thought about the inheritance issue, but there wouldn't be a problem anyway. We are already a family that shares everything and shares with one another."
