Even though Nadya Suleman told Ann Curry she is "not on welfare," her spokesman confirms she is. The Southern California mother of octuplets receives $490 a month in food stamps and three of her first six children are disabled and receiving federal assistance, Nadya Suleman's publicist confirmed Monday evening. Spokesman Michael Furtney said Suleman did not want to disclose the nature of the disabilities, or the type or sum of the payments. Furtney confirmed the public assistance payments after two sources told The Los Angeles Times that Suleman was receiving food stamps and federal supplemental security income. "In her view, these are just payments made for people with legitimate needs and are not, in her view, welfare," Furtney said.
