‘Octomom’ Nadya Suleman Foreclosure Sale Delayed (Again)

The most bizarre foreclosure case in recent memory must belong to Nadya Suleman, who is also known as “Octomom” for delivering eight children at once (via in vitro fertilization) while on government-sponsored welfare to help support her other six children back in 2009.

Her unique story captured major headlines throughout the United States at the time, sparking debate about whether or not a cash-strapped, public-assisted single mother of six should be allowed to pursue excessive fertility treatments and have taxpayers pick up her tab. More than three years later, Suleman still knows how stir controversy, as well as avoid foreclosure.

According to The Orange County Register, the four-bedroom, three-bathroom home in southern California the Suleman “purchased” right around the same time as the birth of her octuplets, will remain her’s for at least another two weeks. Suleman stopped making the $3,000 monthly payments way back in 2010 on her “wrap-around mortgage,” which essentially means she holds the deed and makes payments to the original property owner, Amer Haddadin, who in turn pays the bank.

This is the second time the foreclosure sale has been postponed. She (and Haddadin) owe approximately $477,288 on the La Habra, Calif., home.

Suleman has recently filed for bankruptcy, claiming her debt-to-asset ratio is in the neighborhood of $1 million to $50,000. It’s possible that the bankruptcy claim could have delayed the latest foreclosure sale.

Meanwhile, to make ends meet, Suleman has reportedly embarked on an adult film career. We told you this was bizarre.
