BRITAIN’S biggest family, the Radfords, have opened up about their busy life with 22 kids – and it sounds very expensive indeed.

Sue, 45, and Noel, 49, revealed their life in numbers on a YouTube video, including how they go through 24 bottles of shampoo and conditioner a week. 

Speaking on the video, the super-mum said: “Hi, I’m Sue and I’m going to show you what it’s like to live in the Radford house.”

Sue and Noel can then be seen unpacking their weekly food shop in the kitchen, and Noel says: “Do you know something, I worked out we use over a hundred pints of milk a week?”

The busy parents admit on the clip that they’ve had to start doing their food shopping online to make their life easier. 

Next, Sue can be seen taking a load of laundry out of the washing machine, and she reveals that she has a huge schedule each week for keeping her brood’s clothes clean. 



She says: “I get through around 21 massive loads of washing a week, which includes lots of school uniforms.”

In the bathroom, Sue points out the vast collection of toothbrushes, and says: “We go through two tubes of toothpaste and probably 24 bottles of shampoo and conditioner a week. 

“And as you can imagine, on school mornings this bathroom is rammed.”

Noel admits that it certainly isn’t cheap having so many kids as many of them need laptops to do homework for school in the evenings. 

He estimated the family has around 26 devices all competing for their WiFi connection. 



Lancashire-based Sue and Noel are parents to Chris, 31, Sophie, 25, Chloe, 24, Jack, 22, Daniel, 20, Millie, 19, Luke, 19, Katie, 17, James, 16, Ellie, 15, Aimee, 14, Josh, 12, Max, 11, Tillie, nine, Oscar, eight, Casper, eight, Hallie, four, Phoebe, three, Archie, three, and Bonnie, one, and Heidie – who was born in April.

Sadly, Noel and Sue's 17th child Alfie was still born on July 6, 2014.

Noel and Sue famously don’t claim benefits and rely on Noel’s bakery business to make ends meet.


In other Radford news, Sue shared her kids' first day back of school including tears and piles of uniform everywhere.

And "exhausted" Sue shared a snap of her breastfeeding Heidie.
