Britain’s biggest family announce they’re having their 21st child

Congrats!

A major congratulations is in order for Britain’s biggest family, the Radfords – they’re welcoming their 21st (!!) child.

The family announced the news on their Youtube channel last night, first teasing that they were at the hospital.

Within a few minutes of the video, the mum Sue Radford reveals she’s expecting, saying, “I’m pregnant. Little bumpy!”

Sue then goes around to her kids, asking them what they think the sex of the baby will be, before letting off a confetti cannon with pink confetti in them, indicating they’re having a little baby girl.

The new arrival will join Chris, Sophie, Chloe, Jack, Daniel, Luke, Millie, Katie, James, Ellie, Aimee, Josh, Max, Tillie, Oscar, Casper, Hallie, Phoebe, and Archie.

Baby Archie, the couple’s 11th son, was born last September – and already having nine daughters, the Radfords say their family is now complete and they are “happy to finish on a nice, even number,” however they have since changed their minds!

Sue, 42, who is also a grandmother of three, had her first baby 28 years ago at the age of 14, and then went on to have 20 more – making them, by quite a bit, Britain’s largest family.
