Mum of 14 Nadya Suleman is being branded an Angelina copy-cat, amid fears for her eight newborn babies.
The strange life of octuplets mum Nadya Suleman is causing concern, with the unemployed 33-year-old single mother denying claims that she’s obsessed with Angelina Jolie, and brushing off concerns she will be unable to look after her 14 kids.
Nadya already had six children aged two to seven, conceived by IVF, and lives on a disability pension. She has sparked outrage over her decision to undergo IVF treatment and deliberately have six embryos implanted. Two embryos split into twins, so eight babies were born.
“Those are my children and that was what was available and I used them,” Nadya told the Today show in the US last week. “I took a risk. A gamble.”
Nadya’s own mother, Angela, is leading the chorus of criticism.
“The truth is, Nadya’s not capable of raising 14 children,” says Angela, who lives with her daughter and calls her actions “unconscionable”.
“She already has six beautiful children. Why would she do this?”
The Insider television program reports that Nadya is up to $50,000 in debt. A website has been set up in her name to help raise money for the babies…
