Fox to air two-hour 'Octomom' special

Fox has confirmed that it will air a two-hour special documenting the life of Nadya Suleman since the birth of her octuplets earlier this year, says Access Hollywood.

Suleman, 33, was already a mother-of-six when she gave birth to eight babies at a hospital near Los Angeles on January 26.

According to the network, Octomom: The Incredible Unseen Footage will feature "an intimate look inside Suleman's life" and allow "viewers to witness the emotional struggles, physical complications and financial burdens of this single mother of 14".

The statement added: "From the day the octuplets were born, cameras had unprecedented access to every area of Suleman’s life.

"For more than seven months, cameras documented Suleman, capturing incredible footage, including the private moments and reactions of Suleman’s family, as well as Suleman's own feelings, doubts and fears."

The documentary will air on August 19 on Fox.
