'Octomom' Nadya Suleman, 49, reveals her son has welcomed a baby girl

'Octomom' Nadya Suleman, 49, has become a grandmother, as she has revealed that her son has welcomed a baby girl.

The star, who was shot into fame after she gave birth to the world's first surviving octuplets in January 2009, shared the exciting news via Instagram.

Nadya posted a snap of her granddaughter's foot, while thanking her 'son and lovely daughter-in-law' for giving her 'this beautiful gift.'

'We are so blessed that she is a new addition to our family,' she added. 'Baby girl, you are so very loved and we can't wait to watch you grow. 8/30/24.'

Nadya, who was already a mom-of-six when she welcomed the octuplets, did not share which of her 10 sons had become a father.

Using IVF, the tabloid fixture gave birth to her eldest son, Elijah, in 2001, followed by her daughter, Amerah, in 2002. 

She then welcomed two more sons, Joshua and Aidan, and a set of fraternal twins, named Calyssa and Caleb, all through IVF. 

In 2009, California-native had all of her remaining embryos that had been frozen during her IVF treatments be implanted into her uterus, resulting in the birth of her octuplets.

Two years later, the Medical Board of California revoked the license of the doctor who transferred her embryos, Beverly Hills fertility specialist Michael Kamrava.

It was revealed that Dr. Kamrava had transferred a total of 12 embryos into her uterus at one time, which went against the 'standards of care in IVF practice,' per CBS.

Nadya told the New York Times in 2018 that she believed she was going to have twins and was 'misled' by her doctor. 

'He told me we lost six embryos, he said they were expelled out of me, and that’s why he wanted to implant another six,' she said. 'I was the classic victim. I was misled by my doctor.'

The doctor, however, claimed that Nadya had pressured him into 'multiple rounds of implants,' the New York Times reported; he appealed the Medical Board of California's decision to revoke his license but it was denied.

After the birth of her eight children, mom-of-14 Nadya became a media sensation, with multiple news outlets dubbing her as 'octomom.'

She appeared on a slew of big TV shows like Dr. Phil and The Oprah Winfrey Show, and she was in talks to land her own reality TV series, which ultimately fell through. 

But she eventually left the spotlight to live a quiet life with her kids in Orange Country, California. 

'I was violating my boundaries and my value system and my own self,' Nadya previously told People of why she decided to step away from the public. 

'I didn’t think of it at the time because I was in survival mode, and I was doing whatever I possibly could to provide for my kids. 

'There was definitely a catalyst - my girls, particularly my oldest daughter Ameerah. She was about 10, and she started integrating my traits and behaviors. 

'After I had observed my daughter beginning to emulate me, I saw her going down that same potentially destructive path, and I realized at that moment I’d rather be homeless in my van with all 14 kids than continuing down this path. It was not what I wanted for my children.'

Now, the octuplets, 15, are thriving. Nadya shared a snap celebrating her birthday with them to Instagram in July.

And when they turned 15 back in January, she shared a touching tribute to the teens.

'I am so proud of the young adults you are growing into,' she wrote. 'Stay true to yourselves, humble, kind, and honest.

'I am so grateful for your love, and am beyond blessed to have you in my life.'
