The song was recomposed and Ege Çubukçu was featured on the revised version. In May, Ergen's new program, Gülben Ergen'le Sürpriz, began to air on atv. During that period she also released the book Gülben'den Masallar in aid of the Education Volunteers Foundation of Turkey.[28][29]
Ergen's seventh album, Uzun Yol Şarkıları, was produced by Seyhan Müzik and released in April 2009.[30] Unlike her other albums, this album was recorded entirely live, and no computer program was used in preparing the songs.[31] The album's lead single, "Giden Günlerim Oldu", ranked number-one on Turkey's official music charts.[32] The song became the best-selling song on the digital platforms in Turkey in 2009.[7] In June 2009, Ergen gave birth to twins Ares and Güney.[33]

In summer 2012, Ergen revealed in a report that she was working on her new album and had taken songs from Metin Arolat and Kenan Doğulu, which she had set aside for the future. Out of these songs, Ergen recorded "Durdurun Dünyayı" by Kenan Doğulu and released it in August 2012.

In June 2013, Ergen released her first EP album Sen. Its lead single, also titled "Sen", was written by Mert Ekren.[48][49] The song ranked second on Turkey's official music charts.[50] In September, Ergen returned to the television with her new program Gülben on Show TV.[51]
2014–present: Aşkla Aynı Değil and Kalbimi Koydum
On 27 September 2014, Ergen married anchorman Erhan Çelik.[52] Their close friends attended the marriage ceremony. Taşkın Sabah and chairman of the board of directors of Ciner Holding, Kenan Tekdağ, were the witnesses of the marriage. The mayor of Selçuk municipality, Dr. Dahi Zeynel Bakıcı, officiated at the wedding. The venue for the marriage was one of the old mansions of the mountain village of Şirince. Fresh spike and fresh lavender were used in designing the area for the wedding ceremony.[53] In December, Ergen was among the artists featured on the album Kayahan En İyileri No.1 in tribute to Kayahan.[54] She recorded the song "Devamı Var" for this album.[55]
In April 2015 and before the release of her new album, Ergen released the single "Aşkla Aynı Değil".[56] The song was written and composed by Oğuzhan Koç. Back in 2009, the two had another collaboration on the song "Giden Günlerim Oldu".[57] With more than 130 million views on YouTube, "Aşkla Aynı Değil" is Ergen's most viewed music video on the platform.[58] In August, she joined TV 8's singing competition Rising Star Türkiye as a judge, together with Demet Akalın, Mustafa Sandal and Fuat Güner.[59] The program is one of the world's first interactive voice contests, with a special application designed for smartphones and tablets, enabling the audiences and judges to vote instantly.[60]
Two years after their marriage,[61][62] Ergen and Erhan Çelik divorced on 6 December 2016.[63]
After four years, Ergen released her tenth studio album, Kalbimi Koydum, on 19 October. The album topped the pre-order section and became the most popular album on iTunes in Turkey.[64][65] The album's lead single, also titled "Kalbimi Koydum", was written and composed by Bora Duran.[66] The song ranked second on Turkey's official music charts.[67] The second music video for this album was released for the song, "Yıkıl Karşımdan", which was written and composed by Mustafa Sandal and Emina Jahović.[68] On 28 March 2016, the third music video was released for the song "Kusura Bakma", written by Mert Ekren.[69] The fourth music video for this album was made for the song "Özledim" and was shown to the public at Ergen's concert at the Bostancı Show Center.[70] "Yaklaş Yaklaş" was the fifth song from this album to get a music video, which was released on 1 August 2016,[71] followed by a music video for the song "Panda" on 26 September 2016.
In 2017, Gülben Ergen sued Seren Serengil due to the comments she had made about Ergen's private life on Star TV's program Duymayan Kalmasın, and in October 2017 a court in Istanbul ruled that Serengil "could not come closer than 30 meters to Ergen, could not insult her or commit any kind of violence against her" for six months. The court eventually sentenced Serengil to a three-day imprisonment in January 2018.[72]
Since 2017, Ergen has continued her career by releasing the singles "Esasen" (2017), written by Soner Sarıkabadayı,[73] "Yansın Bakalım" (2017), "İnfilak" (2018) and "Bu Benim Hayatım" (2020), written by Sezen Aksu,[74][75][76] and "Müsaadenle" (2019), written by Onur Mete and Zuhal Karadeniz.[77]
Other ventures
Çocuklar Gülsün Diye
Çocuklar Gülsün Diye Association was founded in 2010 by Gülben Ergen as the continuation of the campaign Çocuklar Gülsün Diye.[78] Under Gülben Ergen's presidency, and with Elvan Oktar as vice president, the association aims to contribute to the dissemination of pre-school education in Turkey.[79]
A total of 27 kindergartens have been completed and started working under the Ministry of National Education. They have been furnished and provided with all the necessary materials for a contemporary education.[80]
Sürpriz
Sürpriz was the title of Gülben Ergen's program which aired on atv.[81] Its first episode aired on 14 May 2008 and numerous celebrities and artists were featured on it. As the program started two months after the release of Aşk Hiç Bitmez, it allowed Ergen to promote her new album as well. With the appearance of İbrahim Tatlıses in its second week and his ballet performance in the studio, the program achieved a great audience.[82]
Gülbence
Gülbence is the title of both Gülben Ergen's magazine and her morning program. Ergen used this name due to its similarity to her own first name.[83] The name Gülbence later became strongly associated with Ergen.[84] Gülbence was a women's magazine published weekly. As Hülya Avşar's Hülya magazine was being published at the same time, it created the so-called Gülben-Hülya conflict. Ergen's morning program Gülbence aired on TGRT from 1998 to 2001. The program contributed to the sales of her album Kör Aşık and boosted the rating for her TV series Marziye, and was again aired in 2006 until Ergen's first pregnancy forced her to withdraw from the program. In 2008, however, she returned to television with her news program Sürpriz.[12]
Gülben'den Masallar
"Gülben'den Masallar" is the name of Ergen's first book, which contains seven different stories. They are primarily about issues such as environmental awareness, brotherly love, friendship, respect for the elderly, nature and animal love, and healthy nutrition. Ergen donated the money from the book's sales to the Turkish Education Volunteers Foundation.[28] It was published by Kelime Yayınları, with Ebru Diril serving as the illustrator. Eda Demirbay helped Ergen with writing the book.[29]
Gülben
In 2011, Ergen prepared a new TV program, titled Gülben, which aired on TRT daily.[85] In 2013, she continued to present the program on Show TV with the same name.[51] The content of the program was subjects related to life, and especially women. Health, diet, beauty, fashion, decoration, personal development, as well as issues that are closely related to women were the major topics of the program and special guests would be featured on the episodes from time to time.[86]
