Mum-of-22 Sue Radford reveals chaos of packing for a family holiday with her bumper brood

IF YOU thought packing for your holiday was bad, it must be ten times worse for mum-of-22 Sue Radford. 

The busy mum, from Morecambe, Lancashire, shared her bumper packing pile, as she prepared for a few days away as a family at Alton Towers theme park.

Sue shared a photo of one of her kids’ bedrooms in the family’s 10-bed home, which had piles of clothes on the bed. 

She wrote: “Trying to pack for a few days away is taking me ages.”

Sue and Noel are parents to Chris, 32, Sophie, 27, Chloe, 26, Jack, 24, Daniel, 22, Luke, 20, Millie, 19, Katie, 18, James, 17, Ellie, 16, Aimee, 15, Josh, 14, Max, 12, Tillie, 11, Oscar, nine, Casper, eight, Hallie, six, Phoebe, five, Archie, three, Bonnie, two, and Heidie, one.

Sadly the couple's 17th child Alfie was still born on July 6, 2014.

Full-time mum Sue certainly has her work cut out for her at home with all the kids- and previously said: "If I could say the one thing that really does drive me insane in this house, it’s got to be the laundry.

“An average day, I can be doing four to five loads of washing. It's never-ending."

Hopefully all the packing effort was worth it, as Sue shared a photo of her large family at Alton Towers enjoying the rides. 

Thankfully for fans, Sue revealed she is also vlogging the family day out for their YouTube channel. 

The family famously doesn’t rely on benefits and is supported by their pie shop business. 

The Radfords, who live in a 10-bed former care home, often show off their millionaire lifestyle on Instagram.

This includes having an outdoor cinema, TV bed, new £6,500 fridge, and a £30,000 Range Rover car.

The family have recently opened their doors for Channel 5’s 22 Kids and Counting show, which documented their lives under one roof. 

In the show, Sue revealed they have spent £1million raising their large brood and she has been pregnant for 16-and-a-half YEARS.

Although Noel was forced to close the pie shop at the start of the pandemic, his second eldest daughter Chloe suggested they take the business online - and since then, sales have more than doubled.
