Life doesn’t get any easier for Nadya Suleman as her eight toddlers turn two.
As an unmarried mother-of-14 with a $4000 a month mortgage, Nadya Suleman faces severe financial problems and the possibility of being evicted from her home.
But despite these hardships, the controversial California woman known around the world as “Octomum” was determined to celebrate the second birthday of her octuplets on January 26.
She splashed out on a cake, balloons, party favours and even special birthday outfits for the six boys and two girls, who arrived into this world amid a media whirlwind in 2009.
Noah, Maliyah, Isaiah, Nariyah, Makai, Josiah, Jonah and Jeremiah – the world’s only known set of healthy living octuplets, conceived via in-vitro fertilisation – looked confused and often upset throughout the bash.
The shy little girls huddled together on the same chair, while youngest brother Jonah, born with a cleft palate, peeked bashfully from below the table. Nadya, 35, could only produce a wan smile for the cameras as she posed with her brood and distributed the cake.
