Hatice Sultan (Ottoman Turkish: خدیجه سلطان; Ḫadīce Sulṭān) was an Ottoman princess, daughter of Sultan Selim I and Hafsa Sultan. She was the sister of Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent.
Hatice's birth date is unknown, but she was likely born before 1494. She was the daughter of Şehzade Selim (the future Selim I) and his concubine Hafsa. She may have married Damad Iskender Pasha in 1509, an Ottoman governor and later admiral who was executed in 1515.
It had long been believed that Hatice Sultan subsequently married the grand vizier Pargalı Ibrahim Pasha. However, in the late 2000s research conducted by the historian Ebru Turan revealed that this claim was not based on solid evidence, and that in fact no such marriage ever took place between them.
In the TV series Muhteşem Yüzyıl, Hatice Sultan is played by Turkish-German actress Selma Ergeç.
