Radar Online, which has a close relationship with Octomom Nadya Suleman and has run multiple exclusive video interviews with her, is reporting that she’s about to go on welfare – again – in order to support the 14 children she had as a single unemployed parent through IVF. Nadya denied being on welfare when she first hit the scene despite relying on disability for three out of her six older children, using food stamps, and personally collecting over $165,000 in disability for an alleged back injury suffered at work that of course didn’t keep her from getting pregnant multiple times.
Now Nadya, who declared bankrupty two years ago, has predictably blown through whatever money she made doing interviews and selling family photos and is prepared to go back on welfare if she doesn’t score a reality show soon. While Radar claims her home is safe from foreclosure due to some legal reason, TMZ reports that she’s about to get foreclosed upon after missing mortgage payments and postponing a balloon payment that was due earlier this year.
Here’s Radar’s story on how she’s prepared to go on welfare, and you know they’re hearing it either from her or her nasty mom:
With 14 children and no income, Octo-Mom is going on welfare.
Since giving birth to octuplets, Nadya Suleman has supported herself by selling access to her life, but a TV deal that she hoped would turn into a reality series fizzled.
That failure was a huge blow to Suleman’s future and has left her in financial ruins, RadarOnline.com is reporting exclusively.
“Nadya is running out of money very quickly,” a source close to the infamous mom told RadarOnline.com. “She’s still hoping to pull off a deal that will pay her a fortune but at this point it just doesn’t seem possible.”
Suleman was an infamous headline-generating national curiosity after giving birth to octuplets on January 29, 2009.
RadarOnline.com led the way in covering her chaotic life, documenting her struggle to raise 14 children, her brutal fights with her mother and the notoriety that led attorney Gloria Allred to head the quest for a guardian to be appointed for her children.
Now, however, the press attention has diminished and TV networks aren’t buying a reality series featuring Suleman.
A potential deal with the Game Show Network fell through, as RadarOnline.com was first to report.
“She was hoping for merchandizing deals, but those never came through,” the source said. “And she’s written a book but no publisher wants it.”
Meanwhile, Suleman has fallen behind on her mortgage payments again.
In April, the man holding her mortgage threatened to evict her when she fell behind.
That situation was resolved and as RadarOnline.com recently reported exclusively title to the house where Nadya lives was transferred to a company owned by her lawyer, Jeff Czech. (Nadya’s father bought the house.)
“Nadya has nannies and huge expenses raising 14 children,” the source said. “She needs a lot of money just to keep up with the basics. And now the income has dried up and she didn’t make enough in the past year and a half to live off of it.
“That money is gone and now she’s facing desperate times.
“Nadya will never come out publicly and say she’s going on welfare but everyone close to her and familiar with her situation knows that it’s going to happen very, very soon. She needs the money. She has no choice at this point.”

In January, Suleman’s ex PR rep claimed that she told him she had a whopping 11 embryos implanted in a bid to get rich and famous. I’m not surprised to see that it’s not entirely working out for her. She still has the option of doing that porn film that Vivid offered. They may have significantly reduced the $1 million payday they offered her last year, now that she’s a forgotten punchline.

i find the sentiment on her tee shirt hilarious, in view of her own procreative choices.
What a stupid, selfish jackass.
Let me find my shocked face…
Her t-shirt is an oxymoron for a moron.
auuuuggggghhhh! that last picture frightened me!
Our tax dollars at work.
Now I know people talk sh*t about the Duggars but I find no issues with them. Their children are well taken care of and they are happy and healthy. Good kids. Michelle Duggar has a supportive loving partner and they work hard.
Then there is this idiot bringing babies into the world she can’t take care of. Period. I don’t like women like her. I feel for her babies because their mother is gonna make their life a serious struggle and it didn’t have to be that way.
She looks like her chromosomes don’t line up.
How nice, now the tax payers get to raise her children!
her original face looked fine.
I feel like if you’ve had the money to pay for MULTIPLE fertility treatments over several years, you should NOT be allowed to then later collect welfare.
How does she afford a lawyer, but not a mortgage payment?
Time to do that porno, I guess. Gross.
AHHHHHHHHHHHH!
She should sue the doctor, IMO. She is mentally unstable/an obsessive, compulsive child hoarder or whatever and probably needs mental health services. The doctor has NO excuse. Implanting that many embryos is not done by reputable doctors under any circumstances. I would like to see something happen to him for his role in this mess.
If she gets an actual welfare check (as opposed to medical & food stamps) won’t they make her go to work? Like actual WORK, not a TV show.
Didn’t welfare pay her hospital/birthing charges & probably all other medical fees since her children have been born.
Was she ever off welfare?
My state is completely bankrupt and we’re STILL paying for this lady’s bad decisions! Ugh–get her out of my state. Someone please take her. Maybe she can go live on one of those religious communes since she loves breeding so much. She can be the 20th wife to some jackass. Just get her out of my state. 🙁
When are those children going to be taken from her? I don’t think she’s abusing them but she obviously cannot provide for them by herself, and she’s clearly mentally unstable.
Apparently she still has money for lip injections. Or maybe they’re implants? Ugh. I feel so bad for her kids. She still is, afterall, “mom” to them. However, in the long run, I think they’d be better off being raised by normal parents who could give them the attention they each deserve, sans the crazy. I hope child welfare is keeping close tabs on that family.
She was ugly before but now she is ugly WITH obvious botched plastic surgery!
Has she had more work done on her face?
This thing makes me sick beyond reason. All her money went into those hideously fake balloon lips, pedi’s, tummy tucks, boob jobs, fake lashes and every other PS procedure she could find. Too bad they cant get a refund for those.
Makes me sick RO is reporting this in what appears to be a plea for donations. I sincerely hopes she loses everything including those kids so they can have half a chance at a normal life. The State of Ca. needs to do an audit on her expenses before they give her a dime. I doubt she used any of her ‘earned’ money for anything other than her procedures. She probably only used her kids SSI to pay for food for them. I cant believe she is still receiving the assistance she is without anyone questioning where all her shopping and surgery money comes from.
in that last pic she looks high. look how glassy her eyes are!
I hate her, but I also want to say that if she had a husband, she’d probably have gotten a TV show, whether or not their income could’ve supported the family, a la Duggar and whoever else. It’s the single mom factor that (imo) is part of why SOME people scorn her and don’t direct the same venom towards the rest of TV litter-families.
Personally, I think they’re all lunatics.
Stupid B*TCH! I mean, what more is there to say, really?
That. T-Shirt. Ugh!
I sense that her selfish scheme to get famous and rich certainly backfired. My intuition tells me that she was not alone in concocting this scheme from the get go. Nor am I buying her parents’ story of the innocent victims. BS, I say. The California government, especially the Welfare department, should not render any welfare payments to her until she submits to a DNA test — they need to test the fertility doctor and any other possible dads. They should do a full investigation on her and her parents. I truly hope the truth comes out.
why can’t tlc give her a reality show. i mean kate gosslin and her kids make 250,000 per episode(which i have to be way to much) a reality show might be interesting!
This woman is clearly mentally ill. I cannot understand how she still has all of those kids.
Give her what she needs to care for those poor children. The deck is already so stacked against them, having a mother like her. Poor kids.
OMG! If you do the math on the potential impact this could have on the welfare system (ie: US) supporting her with all of those kids, whom unfortunately, with a role model like her have the odds of ending up on welfare themselves, and if they have kids and those kids have kids, AYE YI YI!!! My head is going to explode!
I think that the state should step in, take the babies away from her and adopt them out.
From what I saw on tv, the older ones are feral and a danger to the babies.
Going on welfare?! How about probably ALREADY on welfare!!!! Why else has she kept her car & house in her parents name? She has been scheming for free government cheese from the start. What a piece of trash!!!
UGH its annoying how much $$ she is costing everyone but i’m with the other poster who feels for the kids. i mean, somebody has to do something for them. she clearly will not.
Isn’t Welfare FEDERAL, not STATE?
What kind of person begs for support while wearing false eyelashes and manicured fake nails? What a sicko she is.
bizzy – I was going to say what you said, only you did it way better. Thank you for pointing that out, and being first. Oh, Octomom – hypocrite much?
she would have been wiser to rent her uterus out to people who can take care of children and give them the attention they need
the ‘breeders’ shirt kills me 😀
You should warn people to sit down before reading this. Between this and Casey Affleck telling the New York Times 99% of the Joaquin Phoenix documentary is fake the world no longer makes any sense. Black is white. Up is Down. The media really should try to spread out these very riveting, unforeseen bombshells… I think I have the vapors, I am going to take to the bed.
@bizzy- Great minds think alike. I was just about to say that. Perfect down to the number 8.
LOVE ANGELINA: They couldn’t afford to take care of those kids and don’t take care of the kids the majority the time. The big ones watch the small ones. They were living of donations from other people and undoubtedly would have turned to the government for support if their church, gullible strangers, and/or TLC hadn’t contributed enough.
They still accept donations and exploit their kids in the same way Jon and Kate do just maybe in a less extreme manner. They have a Duggars Without Pity site similar to the Gosslins Without Pity site. Don’t get me wrong Octomom would be pimping her kids out and disrupting their lives if anyone was remotely interested. She isn’t morally superior just too late to cash in. But the Duggars aren’t exactly a functional, ideal, moral family making on their own. It just what the TLC edits them to come across as.
I thought I would never say this about another human being in my life! but I really don’t care about her at all.
No, welfare is not solely FEDERAL; it’s also STATE. I don’t care WHAT it is – I don’t want my tax dollars going to this mess of a (barely) human being.
Sickening. Absolutely sickening. This is exactly what is wrong with the system. Isn’t it time someone took this trash bag out to the curb? Go away Nadya! You did this to yourself.
@Jeri- Some Welfare programs are through the state, some are the federal government. But even the state was are subsidized by the federal government. Up until maybe 96 everything was through the federal government, now some welfare programs can vary state to stay but the federal government does match state expenditures so it doesn’t all come out of the state budget as long as the comply with federal guidelines.
@ Love Angelina — Their kids are taken care of because they take care of each other. The daughters in that family are basically slaves to their parent’s whims… and the mother is slave to her husband’s. After their most recent child nearly died and brought her mother with her, they continue to refuse to use contraceptives or STOP HAVING SEX. They may not be spending our tax dollars, but that doesn’t take away from the evil that they are doing.
She is an idiot. The doctor who implanted those embryos should pay her welfare out of his own pocket.
So she had all these kids to get famous, possibly land a reality show, get rich and because her scheme failed now WE have to support her and her kids???? *Headdesk*
I have seen how many hoops a single mother of ONE had to go through to prove that she qualified for welfare and yet this selfish, opportunistic woman just appears to blithely take advantage of the system?
There needs to be better regulation of the IVF industry and a better screening process of its clients.
I believe that you should have to be independently financially able to care for the resulting children otherwise you will be denied the treatment.
This woman is totally crazy, she got pregnant with all those kids just to be famous, she also got plastic surgery to look like Angelina Jolie and even try tom talk like her
I feel having kids should be controlled somehow and stupid people and poor people should not be able to have kids, are really don’t think is everybodys right to just have kids you have to be stable and have enough money to take care of them, the reason why the world is so fucked up is cause ignorant poor people tend to pop out tons of kids while people with good jobs who are smart have very few.
hold on…when was this bitch OFF welfare?
Once you say “stupid” people and “poor” people can’t have kids, you get into some dangerous territory. Who decides what is “stupid” and what is “poor”? And having kids MAKES you poor, in my experience 😉
To these kids, Nadya is their mother. They are traumatized enough without losing the only mother they’ve ever known.
@Alicia: yea, b/c smart people w/jobs are always amazing parents and it is guaranteed they will never be unemployed.
she is one ugly woman!
I can’t begin to imagine how she is managing those kids. But the state can’t intervene unless they have evidence that the kids are being neglected and/or abused, and so far there is no indication of either.
Totally OT: She did a damn good job of losing the baby weight.
I always KNEW her getting a 500,000+ dollar home was a mistake–she ran off all of the companies that could have donated things..
I would have begged Habitat for Humanity to build me a house (no mortgage), bought the land for lil or nothing (all that money she received from disability) and begged for the supplies from builders and put my babies in tees to advertise etc. publicity–but she wanted to be a star–with that face, smdh.
downright scary!
no one wants to hear that whining and lying on television–her face is scary!
I think the doctor is the father, I really do.
Those poor children.
She’s no Angelina Jolie
Maybe the Duggards should adopt her kids, she wants more kids? then she should take those poor souls away from that crazy woman….Oh yeah I forgot Michelle Duggard will only love the kids she pops out because she’s a baby making machine who loves to get pregnant. These two are pretty much the same to me, the only ones who get pitty from me are the kids
There is no such thing as welfare anymore, it’s been gone since the 1990s.
I dont know what will give me more nightmares……her face or the screwed up life her children will have. Someone spay her!
She has been on “temporary resources” (translation: WELFARE) before. She couldn’t afford her first 6, but why not go for the high order multiple jackpot with EIGHT more?!! Plan failed. No one wants to see her deformed/surgically altered face on tv.
She has had a ton of procedures while her baby with cleft lip/palate still has not had a surgical repair!!!!
Someone should take those kids. Soon
She needs to get spayed like those animals on her t-shirt.
The reason no one has offered her a reality show is because she comes off as a delusional cracked-head (’cause she is!) on the “specials” she’s been on; no one wants to hear her special brand of weirdness and watch her older kids trying to kill the younger ones.
The headline of this story explains perfectly in one sentence so much of what is wrong with American society right now. I’m disgusted.
Disgusted…this is why I hate social programs as a whole. I am just wondering why the state has not taken her kids away from her by now…She is just pathetic. Her poor children will never live a half way decent life.
Just give the woman her reality show – we all crane our necks to look at car crashes, I think it would be compulsive viewing.
Well Lukie for sure things are never guaranteed there are always exeptions but you can’t tell me is not better for kids to be born in families with parents who are educated and with resources to offer them what they need
Having kids should be a priviledge not a right
She’d better take every possible job she can get, because this whole mess is her own damn fault. She deliberately inflicted this particular life on those children: being destitute, overcrowded and ignored, so she owes them everything she can possibly do to take care of them.
The porn gig won’t keep the family afloat for long though, considering how fast she blows through the cash.
TMZ is reporting that she’s been re-offered a deal with Vivid for $500,000. One hour and one scene.
She better take it.
I’m really shocked at the venom people have toward “social programs.” You would rather she “take the deal with vivid” — in other words do porn — and you want her to disappear. But there are children involved. What you are calling “welfare” is Aid to Women with Dependant children. It is for the kids. And the amount (look it up people) is so tiny it’s impossible to actually support a family on it. Jeez. You *do* realize that billions and billions of dollars in aid goes to corporations every DAY? Why aren’t you mad about that?
Whenever money is wasted, that is a bad thing. Of course. Aid money should be used in the best possible way. Does that somehow erase what this woman has done to these kids? You’re an idiot, A~.
The problem is there’s no way to help the kids without also helping her, of course.
You *do* realize that billions and billions of dollars in aid goes to corporations every DAY? Why aren’t you mad about that?
****************
The system has brainwashed people into thinking that having socialism for corporations and capitalism for the rest of us is a good thing.
It is sad for the kids, but they will not be taken away. Poverty is not allowed to be used against parents for child removal. Otherwise, you’d have a system that takes babies from poor women and gives them to rich, infertile women. Not OK.
So she’s now modelling herself on Daffy Duck?
Why do I get the queezy feeling that something tragic will happen? Don’t know why but this womans penchant for making bad decisions doesn’t bode well. We should all pray for those poor innocent children.
Glad she’s in Cali. Stay there. Cali seems to love to take in people who “have a right to be here” and people who cant stop having babies they cant support. 😉
that is one ugly bitch
just sayin
thanks for taking our tax money! her doctor should be sued for planting fertilized eggs in this woman who couldn’t afford the kids. why the hell shouldwe pay for it? this country is messed up.
OMG another WEFARE QUEEN there goes my hard earned raise!!
