Nadya "Octomom" Suleman Visits
February 24, 2010 | Posted at 4:33 PM
Nadya Suleman, the infamous "Octomom," took a seat on the co-hosts' couch Wednesday. This was her first-ever guest appearance on the show.
VIDEO: Watch Nadya chat with the co-hosts.
Nadya, who is a single mother, has been a frequent Hot Topics discussion on The View since she gained international attention in 2009 for birthing octuplets, the second full set of octuplets to be born in the United States.
VIDEO: Watch Joy ask Nadya to name all of her 14 children backstage.
In an exclusive quote to ABC, Nadya, who has never visited the “Big Apple,” said “I am elated. I am honored. I love The View and can’t wait to meet everyone, my heroes. I can’t wait to see New York.”
Last year, a media storm erupted and Nadya found herself facing negative backlash from the public, vandalism, and even death threats when it was discovered that Nadya already had six other children, was unemployed, and on public assistance. Nadya conceived all her children via in vitro fertilization. The octuplets celebrated their first birthday in January.
What did you think of the interview?

February 18th, 2010, 10:12 amI'm wondering why well respected women would have Octomom on their show? By doing so, in my eyes they are condoning living off taxpayers, having children you can't afford, having 1/2 your offspring with disabilities, and going back to have more. With that history, per her pr guy that quit, Munzo, having 11 embryos implanted to be famous? What is wrong with you guys? Have you completely lost touch with the common person?

February 18th, 2010, 11:57 amQuestion for Ms. Suleman: You have claimed over and over that you felt morally obligated to use ALL of your frozen embryos. The recent Medical Board action against your doctor proves that was a lie. How many embryos do you have left and what do you plan to do with them?

February 18th, 2010, 11:58 am1. Why did you tell Anne Curry you could not murder your children that is why you had 6 frozen implanted, when in reality you used fresh embryos every time and had the rest frozen?
2. What happened to all the frozen leftovers?
3. Which of the octuplets are identical twins?

February 18th, 2010, 12:17 pmWhy is this woman being recognized on this show? The children are important not the birthing unit. This woman should be scrutinized for fraudently giving birth to so many children for profit. Dr. Phil dropped her when he got fully informed. For once could someone ask her hard questions not fluff. She has no answers and can't carry on a conversation without inappropriate guffaws that will curdle milk. Her weight loss is unimportant she will lie about it as she has everything even about saving her frozen embryos after her doctors records stated fresh. Where are the frozen left overs. Were they sold? Did she sell her eggs or left over embryos So many questions. Just asking for her to answer some real questions not fluff. The viewers should know what she is about.
