Octomom Natalie “Nadya” Suleman Facing a “Challenging” Year in Rare Life Update
Natalie "Nadya" Suleman is providing a rare update.
The Octomom, who gained fame in 2009 after giving birth to the first-ever surviving octuplets, reflected on the tough year she’s experienced while celebrating her kids on her 51st birthday.
“Thank you to all my 14 kids, my daughter-in-law, and granddaughter, for making me feel so special on my birthday yesterday,” Suleman wrote on Instagram July 13. “Though this past year has been one of the most challenging seasons of my life, I know that my beautiful family will always be here to love and support me at my highest and lowest points.”
Before giving birth to her 17-year-old octuplets Noah, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Jonah, Josiah, Makai, Maliyah and Nariyah, Suleman was already a mother to kids Elijah, 25, Amerah, 24, Joshua, 22, Aidan, 21, and twins Calyssa and Caleb, 19, from a sperm donor.
“I love you all so much,” the mom of 14 concluded her update. “And a special thank you to my two lovely daughters Maliyah and Nariyah.”
