   Reports say Nadya Suleman is looking to close down a deal for a dating reality show

Nadya Suleman, also known as OctoMom in the media, has 14 children, no husband and, aside from a handful of exclusive media deals, no known source of revenue. At the moment, she’s believed to be working on a reality show about her life as a single mom of 14, a sort of documentary, as she calls it, but it would seem she’s also interested in doing a dating reality show, Radar Online says.

According to the paparazzi agency and celebrity news media outlet, Suleman is keen on capitalizing on her fame as OctoMom, while also increasing her chances of meeting a special someone who might want to share with her the responsibility that comes with raising 14 minor kids. She is currently in talks with Game Show Network with the aim of coming up with a solution for a reality show that would please both parties. If making the show about Suleman trying to find a partner is not possible, she is open to the idea of solely acting as a judge or panelist alone, Radar says.

“OctoMom and the Game Show Network are in secret talks about partnering on a Dating Game show, Radar Online has learned exclusively. The talks are wide-ranging and include many options but one of the most intriguing involves OctoMom being involved as a host or panelist on a new dating game show, sources told Radar Online,” Radar writes. As of now, further details are not available but given that Radar is one of the media outlets with which Suleman is reportedly under contract for exclusivity, one could say there might be some truth to this.

“The two sides had a meeting this week and are likely to meet again soon. There is heavy interest on both sides. With 14 children and no husband, OctoMom has teased in previous interviews that perhaps she would date when her life settles down. Having her as a regular on a dating show would be a huge publicity boom to the Game Show Network and could translate to significant earnings from good ratings,” Radar goes on to say.

Moreover, it would seem Suleman has completed work on the miniseries for Eyeworks (the aforementioned documentary-style series), which would mean she’s free of other obligations and, most importantly, looking for a new source of revenue as soon as possible. Keep an eye on this space for more details on this upcoming reality show, or for denial of the same.
