Sue fell pregnant with Chris at just 14 in 1988 and was determined to keep the baby.
The birth of Chris on May 7 1989 sparked a long romance between Sue and Noel, and 21 more children have followed in quick succession.
Chris is now 31 and has moved out of the family’s former care home in Morecambe and into his own house nearby.
Chris does not feature in the new Channel 5 documentary 22 Kids & Counting and rarely features on the family’s social media.
Sue explained that Chris wanted to take a step back from the media.
He does pay regular visits to his family home where he will often indulge in his favourite takeaway - an Indian.
It is believed that, like many of the older Radford children, Chris started out working in his dad Noel’s bakery.
Since moving out Chris now works as a glazier to support his family.
