\"Just over 12 months ago, Russian woman Kristina Ozturk was a mother of one.\
\
Now, the 23-year-old and her millionaire husband Galip, 57 have 21 children.\
\
The couple have 20 babies through surrogacy and one daughter who Ozturk gave birth to naturally. They live in ​Batumi, Georgia with their brood, where it\'s legal to use surrogate mothers in pregnancy. Although it comes at a cost, with each surrogacy costing around 8,000 euros (\$AU12,500.)\
\
According to Ozturk, they have 16 live-in nannies working 24/7 to help them with their brood, revealing they work four days on, two days off with bedrooms all near the kids and their own kitchen.\
\
The family get through 20 large packages of nappies every week and 53 packs of baby formula.\
\
\"It costs about £3,500 to £4,200 (\$6,500 to \$7700) per week for essentials for all the kids,\" Ozturk told The Sun, adding they pay their nannys £350 (\$644) a week. \"Sometimes \[the costs are\] a little more, sometimes a bit less.\"\
