Ayça çağla Altunkaya says Hull City talks stay off limits
Ayça çağla altunkaya drew a line between home and Hull City with a blunt one-liner: “Ben nasıl senin futboluna karışmıyorsam, sen de eve karışmıyorsun.” The comment came as Acun Ilıcalı’s club celebrated promotion to the Premier League after a 1-0 win over Middlesbrough.
The exchange started at home, where guests were present and the couple were tidying the house. Altunkaya described it as a joke, but the setup was plain: Ilıcalı owns Hull City, and football was already part of the household conversation before the promotion was sealed.
Altunkaya’s house rule
Altunkaya said she does not interfere in his football matters and that he does not interfere in housework. That division turned into a neat public line, one that fit the moment because it came from a domestic scene rather than a formal club setting.
Ilıcalı later told reporters, “Bırakırsanız susmaz ona göre”. The remark matched the tone of Altunkaya’s story: both were talking about football, but neither was turning the home into a transfer room or a boardroom.
Hull City and Las Vegas
Hull City’s 1-0 win over Middlesbrough in the Championship play-off final delivered the result behind the chatter. Oliver McBurnie scored the goal, and the club moved up to the Premier League after the final.
That promotion also sits next to Ilıcalı’s earlier promise that, if Hull City reached the Premier League, he would send the whole team to Las Vegas on a private plane. Altunkaya said she continued to support Hull City, which keeps her joke tied to the club’s rise rather than just to a private family exchange.
Premier League reward
The practical takeaway is simple: Hull City’s promotion has already turned a private pledge into a public reference point, and Altunkaya has made clear she is not stepping into the football side of the marriage. For anyone following Ilıcalı’s ownership of the club, the next move is now less about a household joke and more about whether that Las Vegas reward becomes part of the club’s Premier League celebration.
