Britain's biggest family's life of luxury after parents spend £1million on 22 kids

Hardworking couple Noel and Sue Radford - proud parents of 22 kids - say they have spent more than £1million raising them.

But incredibly they also manage to live a luxury lifestyle with lavish trips out and a £30,000 Range Rover.

The Radfords famously don't claim benefits from the government and live on the income from Noel's bakery business and their show.

The Radford Pie company, which is located near their family home, has recently expanded and caters for online orders made from around the UK.

Noel and Sue, from Lancashire, 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, seven, Hallie, four, Phoebe, three, Archie, two, Bonnie, one, and Heidie who was born in April.

The Sun reports that Sue turned 46 earlier this year and was given the Range Rover from her husband Noel, 50.

She said on Instagram : “Happy birthday to me. I’m so incredibly lucky to have such an amazing hubby who works so hard for us all.

“I love you @noelradford.”

In lockdown the parents also transformed an outdoor space to include a hot tub and bar, as well as a pizza oven from Aldi.

The family was pictured lounging on the new outdoor sofa outside their 10-bedroom home in Morecombe, Lancashire.

A cinema projector has also been set up in their garden and previously they were snapped sitting down to watch Jurassic World together.

They had also revealed that as a family their weekly food bill had exploded by more than £100 to a total of £400.

The family have also enjoyed hundreds of birthdays over the decades, and Sue guesses that they have celebrated 288 birthdays in total.

She said: "That's a lot of wrapping of presents. And even though we have a lot of birthdays throughout the year, we always make sure the kids have their one special day."
