Not only is "Octo-Mom" Nadya Suleman currently living on food stamps, but she also intends to use student loans to care for her 14 young children.
The latest shocking revelation comes in a fresh excerpt of her interview with the Today show's Ann Curry.
“Do you have any income at all?” Curry asked Nadya Suleman during her exclusive interview with the 33-year-old mother.
“At the moment, no,” Suleman replied, adding that she intended to use student loans “temporarily” to pay for her family’s care.
“Right now, you don’t have an income to provide for your children?” Curry repeated.
“Probably just with the student loans,” Suleman said. “I am providing for my children. I am. And that will probably run out by the time I go back to school. So I have my own way. It’s an alternative way, but it works.”
Meanwhile, the first pictures of the California octuplets were released Monday along with the revelation that Suleman is on food stamps.
In the Curry interview, Suleman had said she was not on welfare, but her publicist Mike Furtney said later that she receives $490 a month in food stamps.
She also receives disability payments for three of her six previous children, but Suleman did not want to disclose the nature of her children's disabilities or the nature of those payments.
Furtney says that in Suleman's view, the payments are necessary for her family's legitimate needs.
"I believe that God will provide in his own way," Suleman said in the interview.
