As per custom she was brought to the harem via the Ottoman slave trade, where she most likely appeared at around 1627 and soon became the sultan’s favorite concubine.
She was described as "beautiful on the outside but not on the inside" and was on bad terms with Murad's mother, Kösem Sultan.
[2][3][4][5] In 1633 Murad raised Ayşe's stipend to 2,000 aspers a day, where it remained throughout his reign.
These changes were probably an aspect of Murad's dramatic assertion of personal control of government after nine years of his mother's regency.
In the TV series Muhteşem Yüzyıl: Kösem, Ayşe is portrayed by Turkish actress Leyla Feray.
