Mum of Britain's biggest family gives birth to baby number 22

The UK’s biggest family just got bigger after mum Sue Radford gave birth to her 22nd baby over the weekend.

The family shared the news on their Instagram page and said everyone had already fallen “in love” with the new arrival.

Alongside a sweet snapshot of their newborn’s tiny hand, they revealed that they welcomed their “beautiful baby girl into the world on Friday night”.

The newest addition to Sue and husband Noel’s supersized family, whose name is yet to be revealed, is happy and healthy and weighed in at 7lbs.

However, Sue, 45, admitted she was concerned about how the coronavirus pandemic would impact her birth.

She told The Sun:

I was more scared than I had ever been going into hospital with everything going on with the virus. I was so worried that Noel wouldn’t be allowed to stay with me. We have all been isolating and it seemed wrong to leave our safe bubble to go to a hospital, but when I got there I felt safe straight away.
