Angelina Jolie is planning to help out octuplets mother Nadya Suleman with a generous donation of thousands of dollars, it's claimed. 

Nadya - who has fourteen children in total - has been criticised for 'pimping out' the latest additions to her brood in the press, reportedly prompting several sponsors to withdraw their support.

And now it's claimed that mother-of-six Angelina is ready to step in for the sake of the kids.

A source tells Star magazine, "Angelina is worried about the best interests of the kids.

"As a mom of six, she knows how chaotic and costly raising a big family can be."

The source adds, "She doesn't necessarily approve of Nadya, and she doesn't want to turn the situation into even more of a circus."

Nadya was previously accused of having plastic surgery to look like the Changeling star, which she later dismissed as ridiculous.
