UK’s Mum-of-22 Sue Radford Spends £50k on Disney Trip, Sparks Online Buzz

Sue and Noel Radford, heads of Britain's biggest family from Morecambe, have embarked on yet another trip to Florida, visiting Walt Disney Land before the September term commences. This marks their second significant holiday to the Sunshine State this year, following an estimated £52,000 extravaganza in April for Sue's 50th birthday.

The family shared numerous snaps from their Disney adventures, including a photo of the brood in front of Epcot's famous sphere, which Sue revealed is their favorite theme park. They were also pictured wearing the iconic Disney ears as they explored the parks.

Despite previously telling The Daily Mirror that they have been "feeling the pinch" financially, the Radfords spared no expense on their April trip, which included not only their own 22 children but also their grandchildren, making the most of the Easter break. The couple's income primarily comes from their Channel 5 show, "22 Kids and Counting," and their family business, Radford's Pie Company.

The sheer scale of their holidays comes with considerable costs. For the April trip alone, flights for the entire family were estimated at a jaw-dropping £26,228, not including excess charges or extra baggage. It remains unconfirmed if the entire extended family joined them for this second visit.

Park tickets also represent a substantial expense. Based on the cost of a seven-day Disney visit, requiring a 7-Day Magic Ticket for each guest, Sue and Noel could have spent approximately £20,065 for each of their Florida trips this year. Children under the age of three are exempt from ticket costs. These tickets provide access to the park and water parks, with eligibility to enter multiple parks per day, and include the 'memory maker' package for unlimited Disney PhotoPass downloads.

Accommodation is another major financial consideration. The Radfords have previously stated on "This Morning" that they prefer renting villas to manage costs and keep their large family together. Last September, they shared an Orlando Villa Tour on their Facebook page. With the family potentially totaling 39 travelers (children and grandchildren), booking three villas at £300 per night per villa for a week would amount to approximately £6,300, excluding food costs.

The Radford family includes Christopher (36), Sophie (31), Chloe (30), Jack (28), Daniel (26), Luke (24), Millie (23), Katie (22), James (21), Ellie (20), Aimee (19), Josh (18), Max (16), Tillie (15), Oscar (13), Casper (12), Hallie (10), Phoebe (9), Archie (7), Bonnie (6), and Heidie (5). Their 17th child, Alfie, was stillborn in 2014.
