Mum of 22 Sue Radford managed to take 11 holidays in 2022 from Maldives to US

Sue Radford, mum of Britain's biggest family, was lucky enough to enjoy 11 holidays with her brood in 2022.

The mum-of-22 shares her adventures with thousands of fans on social media. The Radford family live in a 10-bedroom home in Morecambe, Lancashire, and got into the Christmas spirit with a trip to Disneyland Paris.

The Mirror reports how Sue and Noel Radford took some well needed time off their busy schedules ahead of the festive weekend and decided to make the most of it by jetting off to Paris.

Taking a fraction of their family with them, they headed out to the Disney-themed theme park with the youngest of their brood. It was just one of the many breaks that Sue has enjoyed this year that has included three trips to the USA.

Sue and Noel Radford are parents to Chris, 32, Sophie, 27, Chloe, 26, Jack, 24, Daniel, 22, Luke, 21, Millie, 20, Katie, 19, James, 18, Ellie, 16, Aimee, 15, Josh, 14, Max, 12, Tillie, 11, Oscar, 10, Casper, nine, Hallie, six, Phoebe, five, Archie, four, Bonnie, three, and Heidie, one.

And 2022 has seen the return of their television show, having had their first programme way back in 2012 called 15 Kids and counting.

Their first trip to the US came last Easter when they jetted to Florida while Sue was back in New York shopping for designer handbags in December.

Sue and Noel marked their pearl anniversary with a holiday to the Maldives where they enjoyed some quality time together away from the kids.

She wrote on Instagram: “ "It's also our 30th wedding anniversary in just over 2 weeks. 30 YEARS.

“We're so close to booking a break away for 4 nights just the two of us but I'm so hesitant at leaving the kids. Should we just go for it. We'll book it on yes or no so GOOO."

Sue later uploaded a pic of a candlelight dinner and said: “We had the best day yesterday celebrating our 30th wedding anniversary.

“We finished the day off with a beautiful meal in the most beautiful setting I’ve ever seen.”

Then the final trip before Christmas was to Disneyland Paris.

In a YouTube vlog, Sue revealed one of the reasons for the trip was because "the kids aren't getting very much at all" on Christmas Day.

She said: "We decided to book this, because the kids are not getting very much at all present-wise this year. We decided to do the same as what we did last year with Lapland. We thought it's better to do a nice little Christmas trip away for them, making memories rather than getting present they probably won't even play with, don't even want."
