(Newser) – Nadya Suleman may be serving up the realest reality show of all: TMZ reports a videotape of her octuplets’ delivery is being shopped for seven figures. Suleman apparently gave her consent, but it’s not clear who did the filming.

Could that be what she was discussing yesterday with Dr Phil McGraw and Gloria Allred, the lawyer who filed a complaint questioning her fitness as a parent? The three met at McGraw’s Beverly Hills home but wouldn’t say why, E! reports.
