Octuplet mom Nadya Suleman’s newfound celebrity reached a fever pitch as she brought home the first two of her eight babies.
Scores of photographers, reporters and gawkers who had staked out her new La Habra, Calif., house clung to her vehicle as she arrived home late Tuesday in a homecoming reminiscent of the scenes that have surrounded Hollywood’s infamous celebutantes in recent years.
Suleman was sitting with her babies in the back seat of the SUV as it churned through the crowd and went straight into the garage of her new four-bedroom home where she will raise her 14 children.
The media mob shoved and pushed as their cameras flashed, with some grabbing and riding the vehicle until the garage door closed despite being dented and nearly pulled off its tracks.
Video on Radaronline.com, where Suleman has been publishing a video diary, showed the SUV pulling into the garage from the inside, and screams can be heard for the photographers to get out. Laughter is audible from inside the vehicle after the garage door closed.
Two caretakers in scrubs help Suleman take the babies into the house after she shows them off to the camera.
