Britain's biggest family the Radfords finally have first photoshoot for new baby

The latest addition to Britain's biggest family, which boasts 22 children, has had her first professional photo shoot following delays due to the coronavirus pandemic.

13-week-old Heidie Radford was whisked off from her home in Morecambe to a studio in Skelmersdale, an hour away with mum Sue and sister Millie on Sunday.

The Radford's youngest tot was born on April 3, but was unable to have her newborn snaps taken at 10-days-old like her siblings due to the lockdown, reports Lancs Live.

The family, which owns a bakery and has a popular YouTube channel, are the stars of Channel 4's documentary series 21 Kids and Counting.

In their latest family video blog, Sue told fans that she would soon be taking Heidie for her first official photoshoot.

"I'm taking Heidi for her newborn photos today," said the proud mum.

"Obviously she's not a newborn anymore but I usually take them to get their new born pictures done before but because of the lockdown I haven't been able to do that with Heidie."

Sue, Millie and Heidie travelled down the M6 to visit Jade Davies in Skelmersdale who specialises in taking shots of newborn babies.

The shoot started with Heidie wearing a small blanket and some fluffy teddy bear ears.

She was then dressed in a plain white frock with a headband and put in a wooden manger.

The shoot finished with a few artful shots of Heidie in Sue's arms.

However, once the shoot had finished, the three Radford girls had other priorities.

Sue said: "We've just come out of Heidie's photoshoot, we are going to see if we can get a McDonalds, somewhere."

It comes after a pair of intruders made an apparent attempt to break into the family's home last week.

During the frightening incident, Millie phoned her parents to say she believed someone was outside her bedroom in the back garden, after dog Lola began barking.
