There was a dark time in my life when my fatherâs work started to go bad, very bad, and we didnât even have the money to pay school fees. But if you live in the present, and you engage in what you do, you have no time for fear. Roll up your sleeves, follow your instincts and score: that was my secret. Thanks to a special friend, a genius who did not talk to anyone except me, an Albanian boy with whom I liked to do everything, I began to win one scholarship after another, until I became a lawyer, then an actor.â

Once my mother was in shock. Iâve been a versatile person since high school. I took the Renaissance men as an example. I would go dancing, go boxing, take guitar lessons, learn foreign languages. Iâm a little greedy. While she may like it, my mother is a little panicked. âSon, have you changed your mind again?â He would say it every time, but he is proud to see that I am successful. My dad is cooler. âDo whatever you want to do. I have no doubt that he can succeed,â she says. I had no doubts as to whether I would succeed or not. I was just wondering if I would like the life this job has brought me. I decided to enter this business as soon as I felt that I had grown myself well, that I would not deteriorate, that I would not degenerate.â

A post shared by Can Yaman for children (@canyamanforchildren)
In an interview, he shared that he was born in an Albanian family. He said,
On the part of my father I am of Albanian descent from Prishtina. My grandfather grew up in Pristina, my grandmother in Skopje. In 1959 we came to Istanbul. Fatherâs relatives speak Albanian. Distant cousins. Because I did not meet them I do not know them. Relatives like the father of my father, grandmotherâs brothers. They speak Albanian. My grandfather and my grandmother also speak Albanian. Even, there are cases that speak Albanian. But I grew older by the mother. And there we did not speak Albanian, we speak only Turkish. Thatâs why I do not know Albanian. Neither does my dad know, my uncle knows. He was born in Pristina. There are 5 brothers, after him others were born in Turkey. I went to Albania, Tirana and stayed almost a month there. In Albania everyone knew Italian and I spoke Italian.â
In 2020, he started dating Diletta Leotta, an Italian TV presenter, but within a short period, the couple broke up. While sharing the news of their breakup the Italian celebrity expert Alessandro Rosica shared an Instagram post in 2021. He wrote,
Can and Demet were not just friends as they had been declaring to the press for years, but a real couple and with a fairly important relationship. In fact, the two actors themselves had declared to the press that they have a feeling that they had never found with other actors, so as to achieve an expression in acting so natural as to act off the cuff and following fewer scripts.â
He continued,
Problems arise after the series, managers for professional reasons advise Can and Demet not to go public as a couple. So, they secretly live their love with its ups and downs for about two years, until Can decided to pursue his film career. In Italy, and perhaps as a drop that has overflowed a vast number of people caused by clandestinity, by the unregulated lifestyle of Yaman between clubs and worldliness not well received by Demetâs family and by Turkey itself with its own ethical-religious mental closures.â
As per the Spanish newspaper El Norte de Castilla,
Diletta Leotta had been overwhelmed by the insistence of Yaman on getting married and throwing a wedding. In fact, the Turk asked the Italian to marry him just a couple of months after they met, but she preferred to be cautious, as Bekia collects. It has been Leotta herself who has broken the silence and has revealed some other details about that surprising breakup. And she has done it with the presenter Silvia Toffanin.â
In January 2021, he shifted from Turkey to Italy.
In 2022, the rumours of Can dating Neapolitan model Maria Giovanna Adamo started. Later, a Turkish magazine confirmed the news of their affair. As per the magazine,
It was Canâs father who has put the Italian media on the trail of the new romance. For the actorâs birthday, his father published a video on his social networks with photographs of his son with different people. Among them was Maria Giovanna, the model who has conquered the Turkish heartthrob.â

Iâve never had an attitude of looking at someone and talking to them.
