Octomom Nadya Suleman Could Lose Her House...And So Could Her Children
By now I'm positive you've heard about Nadya Suleman, aka "The Octomom", and her passel of fourteen children, eight of which have just been born and are still in the hospital.
The news reports about her have been flying fast and furious, ranging from telling us she had children because she grew up as a lonely only in a dysfunctional family (so did I, but I only have two), to her own mother ragging on her in the press because she is a single mom of all in vitro babies, to the fact that Nadya does receive welfare in the form of food stamps and disability payments for three of her children (who appear to be special needs kids of varying degrees) despite saying she didn't, to the news that she's lost her PR team, to speculation that she's had plastic surgery to look more like fellow baby-hoarder Angelina Jolie, to rumors that she's actually contacted Santa Angelina (who is creeped out by the whole thing...and if she's creeped out you know it's creepy)...well, you get the idea. It's making me nuts trying to keep up with it, which is probably why I haven't reported on it myself before now (although Dawn has done a couple of passionate write-ups about it).
But the latest news on this family has me thinking. Nadya, her parents, and all of the children soon may have no home to live in, because the one they have is currently being foreclosed on:
Nadya Suleman may be out on the streets with her 14 kids. TMZ has documents showing the house she's living in could go on the auction block because the mortgage hasn't been paid in 10 months.According to documents filed earlier this month, OctoGrandma (who owns the house) hasn't made any payments on her home since May, 2008 — she's behind $23,224.98.
The mortgage company filed a "Notice of Default and Election to Sell Under Deed of Trust" on Feb 5. Translation: "Pay us now or we're selling your home and kicking you, your daughter and her 14 kids out on the street."
The house is owned by Angela Suleman, Nadya's mother, and she hasn't been able to make any payments since May 2008:
The house in which octuplet mom Nadya Suleman is already raising her other six children and will eventually bring her eight new children is in mortgage default, with the bank reporting that the family is $23,224 behind on payments, according to documents released Wednesday.
