Nadya Suleman, the mother of octuplets, marks their 15th birthday. Here’s how they look today…
After giving birth to octuplets in 2009, Nadya Suleman gained global fame as ‘Octomom.’ Already a mother of six, the arrival of the first surviving octuplets in history brought her financial struggles, prompting her to explore unconventional ways to support her large family. These included a nude photo shoot, brief foray into adult entertainment, and trademarking the nickname “Octomom.”
Despite facing scrutiny for her choices, many acknowledged her efforts to provide for her children. However, in 2013, Nadya decided to step away from the limelight, citing her daughter Amerah’s influence as a driving factor. Concerned about her daughter mirroring her behaviors, Nadya chose to prioritize her children’s well-being over public attention.
In 2024, the octuplets celebrated their 15th birthday, with Nadya marking the occasion by sharing a throwback photo of their first birthday. While Nadya rarely shares updates about her children, she occasionally posts about them on social media. Recently, she posted a photo of her octuplets as they began eighth grade, praising their kindness and respect while addressing critics who questioned her decision to share the picture.
Last year, Nadya commemorated her octuplets’ transition into their teenage years with a heartfelt tribute on Instagram, expressing pride in their character and values. She described them as selfless, humble, and compassionate individuals who are guided by their faith and a desire to serve others.
Despite the challenges and controversies surrounding their upbringing, Nadya’s love for her children remains evident, as she continues to celebrate their achievements and growth while shielding them from public scrutiny.
