Hannah Nilman told reporters that she never sought to create a large family and life on the farm. Since childhood, she was engaged in ballet, dreamed of becoming a successful ballerina and living in New York. When she was 21 years old, at the basketball match, friends introduced her to Danel Nilman - he was a couple of years older and just like Hannah, he was brought up in the Mormon family . He said that he immediately wanted to marry Hannah, but the next six months they did not see each other.

Who are Mormons?

A popular religious movement in the United States, founded in 1830 by American Joseph Smith. Mormons consider themselves a restored early Christian church, created personally by Jesus Christ, but in addition to the Bible they rely on the revelations of Smith himself. They adhere to extremely conservative views on the family and women's rights.

Once she told Daniel that she was heading from Salt Lake City to New York to continue his studies at the Julian School of Art and Music. He replied that he was flying the same flight, and at registration they received places on neighboring seats. She later found out that Nilman asked for help from his father - the owner of the airline - to be near her on the plane. Hannah said that he did not mind marrying him in a year, when she finished training. But Daniel Nilman insisted on a faster development of events, and the couple played a wedding three months after the first date. Three months later, Hannah Nilman became pregnant, and she had to leave her studies in her last year. From 2012 to 2024, she gave birth to eight children.

According to Nilman, she and her husband “donated to many” for the sake of creating a large family. She said that she had lost part of herself when she threw dancing and left a dream of a career in the ballerina, and Daniel also "abandoned his career ambitions." The journalist The Times, the author of the report on the family, Nilman Meghan Agdi, noted that she did not agree with this statement. In her opinion, Daniel Nilman fulfilled all his desires: he, as he wanted, lives on a farm in the prairies, and usually there is no nanny in his house - they come once a week, when the couple go on dates and spend the night outside the ranch. At the same time, Hannah Nilman wanted to convert a small barn to the ballet studio - this would be the only space that was intended only for her - but in the end they made a classroom for children.

The material says that of the assistants in the house there is only a cleaning lady. Nilman himself buys foods and cooks from them: the family never takes ready -made dishes in stores, including Hannah he bakes bread herself. According to Daniel, his wife sometimes gets tired that he cannot get out of bed for a long time. The family every Sunday goes to the Mormon Church, and several times a week Nilman leads children to the ballet class. There is no TV in the house, children are not bought phones, and they are allowed to watch only the series “Little House in Prairies” on the computer (the American series about the life of the family on the farm, was released from 1974 to 1983) .

In a conversation with the journalist, Nilman said that she gave birth to six children at home and, in seven cases, abandoned anesthesia. According to her, she does not like to take painkillers. The exception was the birth of the daughter of Marta, who was born in the hospital. Then her wife was not nearby, and the doctors made Nilman epidural anesthesia. She called it “excellent experience” - while the husband, who was usually nearby, did not hear this, because he spoke on the phone.

The family has a minibus with 15 seats. In a conversation with The Times journalist, Daniel Nilman said he dreamed to ever fill him with children. To this, Hannah replied that people are aging and she and her husband will not always be in such physical form as it is now. At the same time, the couple opposes abortion and believes that God sends them children after prayers. Daniel Nilman said that his wife is ready to conceive the child nine months after the birth of the previous one.

Megan Agnya noted that her husband and children constantly corrected Hannah Nilman, interrupted or answered her and did not let them talk alone.

"Why do you need enemies if your husband is Daniel Nilman?"

After the article about the family about the Nilman family on the social network X, a tweet from a video from a fan account in Tiktock was encouraged. “Do you think that an article about the“ Ballerina Farm ”is bad? Look what he gave her for her birthday. And this is a millionaire who has a airline, ”the author of the post wrote.

In the video, Hannah unpacks the box with a gift from her husband on her birthday. She says that she hopes to see tickets to Greece there, but takes out an apron from the box to collect eggs. Nilman smiles and thanks her husband, and he replies that he considers his gift to be beautiful.

Now on Instagram and Tiktoka the Nilman itself there is no this video, but it began to actively distribute and comment on social networks. Many users sympathized with Hannah Nilman and wrote condemning comments about the culture of traditional wives ( Tradwives ).

“Why do you need enemies if your husband is Daniel Nilman, who holds a family enterprise, but uses you for his brand and does not even give you a vacation in Greece. And this is after he treated you like breeding cattle, he forced eight children to give birth to eight children and wants even more, even if you yourself do not want it, ” they write on Twitter. Daniel Nilman is condemned for taking advantage of Hannah's vulnerability and “isolated her so that she would become his personal incubator.”

“Ballerina farm is a confirmation that you do not need to marry a rich person. We must marry a generous person. What would you think if your billionaire husband had a farm he wanted, and the employees working there? But at the same time, he would make you take care of eight children and the house on your own. What would you think when your husband - the heir Jetblue - bought you a apron for your birthday eggs, while you wanted to go to Greece? ” - Ask users.

Also, people call not to subscribe to blogs about traditional families so as not to support patriarchal attitudes, and they say that Daniel Nilman made his wife a slave. “Morns twice, if you need help”, “Run, girl, run, please,” they write in the comments to the posts of Hannah Nilman on Instagram.

In the comments on the video in Tiktok, users write that they were upset by a video with an apron and that Hannah deserved a vacation in Greece. Nilman is advised to divorce her husband and hopes that she burned his gift.

“Daniel, take her to Greece!”, “Take her to Greece, allow her to be a ballerina again, you have money,” commentators contact her husband Hannah Nilman and write that she deserves her own ballet studio. But some users intercede for Daniel Nilman and believe that the couple will still fly on vacation.

Nilman itself did not comment on the reactions to the article and video.
