Ufuk Özkan is in intensive care

Rumors that Ufuk Özkan attempted suicide frightened his fans.

The 50-year-old actor, who was allegedly taken to hospital after taking medication at his home in Beşiktaş, announced in a statement to Gazetemagazine that he is in good health:

"Are they trying to kill me? I go to the hospital every two days for check-ups because I have eczema on my face. I'm resting at home."

In a statement released on the TiyatroTr account in the evening hours of the same day, it was stated, "Our esteemed actor Ufuk Özkan has been admitted to the hospital for a check-up due to the effects of the medications he routinely uses due to his illness. Upon the advice of the doctors, our artist will be kept in the hospital for a 48-hour period for observation purposes only and will be discharged after this period."

"I WILL DIE ON STAGE IF NECESSARY"

Ufuk Özkan's brother, Umut Özkan, asked for prayers for his brother. Magazin D news director Asiye Acar reached out to Umut Özkan and described the conversation they had with the following words:

I reached out to Ufuk Özkan's brother, Umut Özkan. He told me that his brother had been treated for cirrhosis for some time, and that the board had given him a negative report for the transplant, which saddened him greatly. He even said, "If necessary, I'll die on stage; I have to work." This morning, he fell ill and was taken to the hospital and admitted to intensive care. His only request from his loved ones is prayers.

The actor, who has been experiencing health problems due to cirrhosis in recent years, has most recently come to the fore with his alimony crisis with his ex-wife.
