In 2009, the world was stunned: an American woman named\u00a0Nadya Suleman<\/strong>\u00a0gave birth to octuplets \u2014 eight babies at once after an IVF procedure. It was a unique case in U.S. medical history.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

At that time, she already had six children, and overnight, Nadya became a mother of 14. Some called her a hero, others irresponsible \u2014 but no one was indifferent.<\/p>\n

The media dubbed her \u201cOctomom,\u201d and for months, she was everywhere on TV and magazine covers.<\/p>\n

16 years have passed. What happened to the woman who went through such extraordinary challenges?<\/p>\n

Nadya is now 49 years old. She has long stepped away from public life and tries to stay out of the spotlight.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

She lives with her children in a small townhouse on the outskirts of a city in California. They have little furniture, minimal comforts \u2014 but plenty of discipline, love, and order.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Recently, the family celebrated two major events:<\/p>\n

Nadya became a grandmother \u2014 her son\u00a0Joshua<\/strong>\u00a0became a father. His daughter was born, and Nadya embraced her new role with joy.<\/p>\n

Aidan<\/strong>, one of her older sons who has severe autism, turned 20. Nadya organized a warm, intimate birthday celebration for him.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

All the kids, including the octuplets, are now teenagers. They\u2019re 15 years old and live by a strict routine. Nadya taught them self-reliance and discipline from an early age:<\/p>\n

Their mornings start with exercise and homeschooling.<\/p>\n

During the day, they help with chores, cook, clean, and look after one another.<\/p>\n

Evenings are for prayer, meaningful conversations, and reading.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Gadget use is strictly scheduled. TikTok and YouTube are monitored. Smartphones are turned off when it\u2019s time to rest.<\/p>\n

Most of the children are vegans, just like Nadya. She carefully oversees their diet and emotional well-being.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
