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

The family famously don’t rely on benefits, but support themselves with the family’s pie business.

The Radfords have been thoroughly enjoying lockdown easing, and went on a big family holiday to Center Parcs a few weeks ago.

Sue - who has been pregnant for over 16-and-a-half YEARS - welcomed her 11th daughter with husband Noel in April last year.

Noel and Sue say they have already spent over £1MILLION raising their bumper brood.

Reflecting on this eye-watering figure, Noel said: "I try not to think too much about what it costs. What could I have had instead?

"A nice flash car. A Porsche on the driveway."

Meanwhile, Sue joked: "We could have been living in a mansion!”

With 17 of their children still living at home, Noel is under pressure to provide for his enormous family through his pie shop business.

He said: "It’s about £30,000 just to keep the house going and feed everybody. So it’s a lot of pies we’ve got to sell to support us all!”
