The mum of Britain’s biggest family has shared the reality of travelling with her brood on Instagram.
Sue Radford, who has 22 kids with husband Noel, took to social media to reveal they took a whopping 17 suitcases on their recent holiday to Florida.
Posting a snap of a baby seat alongside their massive haul of luggage, Sue praised airport staff.
Although she didn’t name the airport in question, the 48-year-old wrote: “Home time. Love this airport they always make it so easy to check in.”
She added: “17 suitcases later” followed by a laughing face emoji.

“How Heidie feels about going home,” Sue captioned the post, again adding a laughing face emoji.
Sharing photos looking out the window as the plane got ready to take off, she wrote: “Until next time Florida you’ve been amazing.”
Posting a picture above the clouds shortly before they landed back in the UK, Sue added: “Back in a cold England. But had the most amazing time making memories.”
The family enjoyed a holiday just days after youngest daughter Heidie turned three on April 3.
Sue and Noel, who live in Morecambe, Lancashire, are also parents to Chris, 33, Sophie, 29, Chloe, 27, Jack, 25, Daniel, 24, Millie, 23, Luke, 22, Katie, 20, James, 19 and 17-year-old Ellie.
They also have younger children Aimee, 16, Josh, 15, Max, 14, Tillie, 12, Oscar, 11, Casper, 10, Hallie, seven, Phoebe, six, Archie, five, and four-year-old Bonnie.
The couple had another child Alfie in 2014, but sadly he was stillborn after doctors failed to find a heartbeat during their three-month scan.
When Sue gave birth to youngest child Heidie in 2020, she vowed it would be her last baby.
She shared: “We have both decided that we don’t want more children. This time we are definitely done! Heidie is definitely the last. That’s that!
Helen Skelton's family 'chaos' to Phillip Schofield's fancy soirée on NYEHusband Noel added: “There will be no more little Radfords, not from us anyway.”
Sue was just 13 when she got pregnant the first time. Noel, who became her husband in 1993, was 18 when the baby was born.
It is thought she has spent 800 weeks – around 16 years – of her life being pregnant.
Despite their large family, the Radfords don’t live on handouts and earn most of their money from Noel’s bakery business.
They also make money from their social media platforms – their @theradfordfamily Instagram has over 500,000 followers alone.
And viewers might have seen them on their TV shows ’22 Kids & Counting’ which airs on Channel 5.
