Gevherhan's marriage to Muhammad Mirza Pasha Ugurlu was the only acception, which actually proves the rule. Muhammad Mirza Pasha Ugurlu's exile from his own land and refugee at the Ottoman court, the Akkoyunlu prince might be considered a kind of adjunct member of the Ottoman royal household. Bayezid II's daughter Ayșe married Ahmad Mirza, son of Gevherhan and Shahzada Damad Muhammad Mirza Pasha Ugurlu.
