She received for her second album in 1995 at the 1st Kral TV Video Music Awards the 'Best Female TSM Artist' award. Ebru Gündeş's first marriage was with Hamdi Vardar in 1990. This marriage was very short-lived and the couple divorced three years later. The 49-year-old artist had her second marriage with Ömer Durak in 2002, but the couple decided to separate a year later. Ebru Gündeş made her third marriage with Reza Zarrab in 2010, and the couple had a daughter named Alara on October 15, 2011. Ebru Gündeş and Reza Zarrab divorced in an eventful manner in 2021. It was revealed that Ebru Gündeş, who had been married three times, started a new love with 37-year-old Murat Özdemir in December 2023. The 12-year age difference between the couple was on the agenda. It was revealed that Murat Özdemir, who met two years ago in a circle of friends and was married to Selin Kabaklı at the time, fell in love with Ebru Gündeş as soon as he divorced his wife. The claim that the couple, who are 12 years apart, would get married hit the magazine agenda like a bombshell. Murat Özdemir, a father of three children and the owner of a company serving the software and defense industry based in Dubai, who divorced his wife in July 2022, and Ebru Gündeş, who lives in Dubai for the education of his daughter Alara and frequently goes to Turkey for his concerts, are in Dubai.

After undergoing two surgeries and a period of recovery, she returned with a successful concert on 11 March 2000 at Bostancı Gösteri Merkezi. Proceeds were donated to a hospital’s reanimation clinic. Her voice is recognized for its high range, dramatic strength, and emotional expressiveness, often compared to icons like Sezen Aksu and İbrahim Tatlıses, yet with her own unique identity. She has performed duets with prominent Turkish artists and songwriters, expanding her influence in multiple genres.

It was claimed that he also got married. Therefore, Ebru Gündeş and Murad Osman Özdemir became acquainted through their friends. Murad Özdemir, who married model Selin Kabaklı in 2018, started secretly meeting with Ebru Gündeş two years ago. When we learned about the relationship of his model life companion with Ebru Gündeş, there was an argument in the family. With this, the businessman ended his relationship with his girlfriend and returned to his family. During this period, Ebru Gündeş fell in love with the Iraqi businessman Rassan Xosnav. Murat Özdemir apologized to his life partner, said that he loved him very much and went home. Allegedly, the businessman agreed to divorce Selin Kabaklini on paper in the month of 2023 and stated that he was experiencing difficulties related to business. He told his life partner that they would get married again after fixing their financial situation and made peace with Ebru Gündeş. Stardom has taken its toll on her health. She suffered from a brain haemorrhage in December 1999 while recording the album Dön Ne Olur, which resulted in two very heavy operations. Fortunately she returned to full health. She spent a lot of time away from the public eye, recuperating. Dön Ne Olur was one of the best selling albums ever in Turkey. In November 2001 she released the album Ahdım Olsun. This album embodied the pain of the experience she endured from December 1999 to November 2001. It also offered a clear story line for the events that took place in her life that year. Ebru Gündeş has made hundreds of television appearances in Turkey as a singer and recently as an actress in a situation comedy "İmkansız Aşk" (Impossible Love). She was also the host of her Mega Show, one of the most watched television shows in Turkey. Every week Ebru was joined by a variety of other Turkish singers, most notably her long time friends Serdar Ortaç and İbrahim Tatlıses. The show featured Ebru singing her own songs, singing classic songs and singing duets with other singers. Now she is appearing in the hugely popular singing contest Popstar Alaturka as a guest judge along with turkeys most popular singer diva Bülent Ersoy and Orhan Gencebay and Agrman Çaglayan. She has been named a hypocrite when commenting on Sibel Can's tanga bikini incident, saying "No one can ever see me (in a tanga) like that. I'm very careful about such things. I'm the kind of person who even shuts the blinds and turns off the lights before undressing at home. It's because I'm very afraid that someone might photograph me. It's the way I was educated, the way I was taught. I'm also very careful in the way I dress on stage". However she is always seen wearing provocative clothing, and after her 2005 breast enlargement, constantly showcasing them for all to see. Also she bragged about joining the Mile High Club as a teenager. And in 2006 caused great controversy when saying she didn't want a homosexual to be in the popstars alaturka contest. She lost alot of fans by saying this and it was evident when her latest album didn't sell as many as previous albums.
