Sy was ook die Valide Sultan (Imperiale moeder) onder die Sultans Murat IV en Ibrahim. Sy was ook die grootmoeder van Sultan Mehmet IV. Kösem het van 10 September 1623 tot 18 Mei 1632, tydens die nuwe regering van haar minderjarige seun Murat IV, as die amptelike regeerder van die Ottomanse ryk gedien.[5]

Kösem was van Griekse afkoms. Haar vader was 'n priester op die eiland Tinos, daar word gespekuleer dat haar nooiensnaam Anastasia was.[6][7][8][9] Sy is deur die Bosniese goewerneur as 'n slaaf gekoop, en op die ouderdom van vyftien is sy na die harem van Sultan Ahmet I gestuur. Na haar bekering tot Islam het sy haar naam na Mahpeyker verander. Later het Ahmet I haar naam na Kösem verander.[10]

She bore the sultan four sons – Murad, Süleyman, Ibrahim and Kasim – and three daughters – 'Ayse, Fatma and Djawharkhan. These daughters she subsequently used to consolidate her political influence by strategic marriages to different viziers.

Kosem was said to have been the daughter of a Greek priest of one of the Aegean islands, probably captured during one of the Ottoman-Venetian maritime campaigns. Her name was Anastasia but was changed after her conversion, no doubt on her admission to the palace, to Mâh-Peyker (Moon-Shaped), and later by Sultan Ahmet to Kosem
