An online influencer, who saw a surge in followers after welcoming 22 children with her wealthy criminal spouse, has made a startling announcement upon her return to social media. Kristina Ozturk, aged 27, shares her large brood with businessman Galip Ozturk, who was recently released from prison after serving part of an eight-year sentence related to drug offenses. Galip had a previous conviction in Istanbul for allegedly orchestrating the murder of an employee in 1996.
Born in 1965 in the Ayvacık district of Samsun, Galip is the founder of Metro Tourism, a prominent intercity passenger transport company in Turkey. He fled to Georgia in 2018 after his life sentence was upheld, seeking a fresh start.
Kristina has now pledged to expand their family further with Galip, following their substantial investment in surrogacy between March 2020 and July 2021, totaling £133,000 ($180,000). This led to the addition of a vast list of children in their household, with plans for even more. Despite the already sizable family, discussions have revolved around having over 100 children in total.
Expressing her lifelong desire for a large family, Kristina mentioned that both she and her husband shared this dream and actively worked towards it since their meeting. While acknowledging the challenges of managing such a large family, Kristina highlighted the unique joy and fulfillment it brings to their lives.
The couple has decided to delay further surrogacy endeavors until their current children grow slightly older. Galip, who recently completed a prison sentence for drug-related charges, celebrated his release with a grand party at their residence in Batumi, where their love story began.
Turkish media sources reported Galip’s release under supervised conditions, marking the conclusion of a tumultuous legal journey that led to his escape from Turkey to Georgia.
