Biography

Seniha Sultan was born as the daughter of Sultan Abdülmecid I and his wife Nalanıdil Hanım, the daughter of Prince Natıkhu Bey Çıpakue. She also had a brother named, Şehzade Mehmed Abdüssamed, who died in infancy. Seniha used to wear dresses of the most superb cloth, with her tiara on her head on formal occasions, and she also wore gowns with long trains in the European fashion spreading out behind her. In manner she was entirely unconstrained. Often, as did her half-sister Mediha Sultan, she would burst into laughter, and she spoke rapidly and in a deep voice. When these two sisters were together chatting with Murad V, they would both laugh and try to amuse him and get him to smile as though they were in competition with one another. On 5 December 1876, she married Asaf Mahmud Celaleddin Pasha, the son of Grand Admiral Damat Gürcü Halil Rifat Pasha. Together with Mahmud Celaleddin Pasha they had two sons, Sultanzade Sabahaddin and Sultanzade Ahmed Lütfullâh Bey. Sultanzade Sabahaddin Bey was an Ottoman sociologist and thinker. Seniha Sultan died on 15 September 1931 in Nice, France.
