[5] On 8 January 1840, during the reign of her elder half-brother Abdulmejid I, Atiye was betrothed to Rodosizade Ahmed Fethi Pasha.
[1][6] The marriage took place on 25 June 1840, and was performed by Shaykh al-Islām Mekkizade Mustafa Asım Efendi with a dowry of 1001 silver purses.
When she later learned that he was married, she displayed great jealousy and insisted on his not leaving the palace.
[8][9][11] Charles White, who visited Istanbul in 1843, said following about her: Atya is a patroness of literature, and not without talent as a poetess.
[12]Atiye Sultan died on 11 August 1850 at the age of twenty-six, and was buried in the mausoleum of her father located in Divanyolu, Istanbul.
