In simple terms, yes — Suleiman the Magnificent was loyal to Hürrem Sultan.
Looking more closely, their relationship was rooted not only in affection but also in political considerations, especially since they were united through an official marriage — a rare occurrence in Ottoman history. This formal bond likely reinforced Suleiman’s commitment to her. It is true that Suleiman welcomed other concubines into his chambers after Hürrem entered the harem. However, it is widely believed that he did not engage in any serious relationships after their marriage. In fact, there are claims that a group of concubines sent from Russia as a gift to the sultan were dismissed from the palace by Hürrem herself, further demonstrating her influence and his loyalty.
I have a question: Was Sultan Suleiman loyal to Hurrem Sultan, that is, did he not have sex with any concubine after her?
