Here’s Where Natalie Suleman’s Kids Are Now After the Octuplets Were ‘Terrorized’ Following Their Birth

Elijah Suleman

Elijah Suleman is Nadya Suleman’s first child. He was born on May 20, 2001. He was seven years old when the octuplets were born. She wrote in a tribute to him, “My heart broke for you, as the life you once knew spiraled into a state of pandemonium; seemingly the weight of the world upon your tiny shoulders. Not only was my heavy heart saddened by the sudden change in your life, but my parenting deeply driven by guilt. We have experienced a plethora of suffering, hardships and pain together, which have only strengthened our relationship and understanding of one another.”

Amerah Suleman

Amerah Suleman is Nadya Suleman’s second child and first daughter. She was born on July 2, 2002. She was in elementary school when the octuplets were born. “Most of my friends don’t know about the eight,” Amerah told The New York Times. “When they were born, I was in elementary school. I would get questions about everything. But I would answer and say it’s my mom and my family. I was a little confused about that. I get that you’re interested, but I wouldn’t intrude on your family, why intrude on mine?”

Nadya made a post about her daughter turning 18. “Thank you for your strength when I felt like falling apart; thank you for your patience in this challenging chapter of our lives; thank you for your faith in our family; and thank you for your faith in me, knowing my perseverant pursuit for the life you, we all, deserve is imminent. Forgive me for fighting to hold on to you; I am not ready to let go, despite you being an “adult,” you will forever be my baby girl”

Joshua & Aidan Suleman

Joshua and Aidan Suleman are Nadya Suleman’s second and third sons and her third and fourth children. They were born on August 20, 2003. Joshua’s a proclaimed gamer and keeps his life pretty private. “You have grown into a highly intelligent, self-motivated, hard working, responsible, and respectful young man (despite being the ONLY non vegan in the family 🤷🏻‍♀️),” Nadya posted on her Instagram on his 18th birthday. “You are a rare and unique individual, with the most sardonic sense of humor of anyone I’ve ever known.” He also became a father on September 24, 2024, making Nadya a first-time grandmother.

Nadya revealed in 2019 that Aidan has “severe autism.” “Aidan relies on me, his mom, to completely assist him in meeting all his needs in activities of daily living,” she wrote in a post. “Aidan is non-verbal, requires feeding, changing (he is not potty trained), bathing, and one to one supervision, as he has no safety awareness and would walk aimlessly into traffic.”

Calyssa & Caleb Suleman

Calyssa and Caleb Suleman are Nadya Suleman’s second pair of twins. They were born before the octuplets birth in 2009. They share their family affinities of sports and art.

Noah, Maliyah, Isaiah, Nariyah, Jonah, Makai, Josiah, and Jeremiah Suleman

Noah, Maliyah, Isaiah, Nariyah, Jonah, Makai, Josiah, and Jeremiah were the octuplets born to Nadya Suleman on January 26, 2009. The octuplets, who just celebrated their 16th birthday, are still living with Suleman and they continue to live their vegan and fit lives, and are now sharing their story with the world.

“I’ve been saying, I want to keep them safe and protect my kids, and well, they’re older now,” she told People. “They’re turning 16 and making the decision to really do this.”

I’m just very excited,” Nariyah told People about coming forward with their story. “Our mom would finally be able to say her side of the story because I feel like it was very unfair how she was terrorized and hated for just being a mother. And she had to sacrifice so much just for her children.”
