The kids look happy and healthy , they’re not on benefits , who are we to judge ?
You are right but I am judging anyway... this is ridiculous and seems like an addiction.
@@sonjareijmer3053its not an addiction its a disease. They thing having an orphanage as a family is something to be proud of
I seem to remember watching a documentary of them and the dad couldn’t remember any of his kids birthdays, what sort of an upbringing is it when your parents can’t even remember your birthday? They do seem like a nice family all the same.
I will judge away!
Not my opinion, but I think because many people aren't okay with making money on filming your kids life on TV for everyone to see when they are too young to consent. also there's a risk with not having as much individual time with each child and other children being pressured to look after the younger ones.
interviewer asks "why didnt you stop at 3?" with her like 10 and 12th kid in the audience haha. like wow thanks! I have 5 kids and always get questions like "why not just 2?" I want to say "sure! pick out which ones you think I should toss out!" lol.
Yep it is a bit late for that question lol.
Chloe is #3
Ellie is #10
Aimee is #11.
And he had surgery, reversed it when Sue begged him to (not always successful), and they had at least seven more kids.
A hard-working family who deserves all the best...Nothing has been handed to them on a silver plate. It's all been worked for and a bit of luck with the series and youtube doing so well. Good for them, I say!
NOT Hard working atall.
@honeybee3414 hmm, I think running a bakery and shop is.
Love watching your show. You are a really fun family to watch.
Sue and Noel are a wonderful couple with happy children, if only all children were loved and looked after like theirs. 🥰💐☕️
I love watching this couple. It gives me joy to watch such nice family. They're patient is like a saint. I'm big fan.
I love the Radford Family, I remember watching their show when I was at school and now I’m 39 weeks and 5 days pregnant 🤰🏾 with my babyboy who’s due on the 17th January 👶🍼🩵💙 I can’t wait to meet my baby I remember being at school and doing a project in Citizenship on Teen Pregnancy I literally put my heart, soul, blood, sweat and tears into it. I’ve always wanted to be a mummy I love babies, kids this is my dream come true.
Congratulations!
As long as you're not a freeloader and wanting the state to fund you!
@@jamiepr1991there not freeloaders. They work for there money.
RADFORD
@@jamiepr1991 I am doing neither of those things
The description says
They met at School , that's a lie .
They met at age 11 and 15 and pregnant at age 13 and he was 17 ,
They were neighbours friends, street friends.
I’m one of 12 my mother couldn’t stand being without a baby our house was full of love and laughter but our father never got any of names right but we always knew who he meant.
I was one of 8 and my mother just couldn’t stand us lol.
@@ChelleKT1So sorry your Ma 'couldn't stand us'. Very sad. However do you want to dismiss any of your siblings?
@@dogsenseforu301 I only speak to two of my siblings, the others areas hateful as our mother
They're such hardworking parents. Been watching 22 kids and counting for some time now.
The thing is they haven't brought them up on their own, they use the older children to help with every day life.
Nothing wrong if older kids help you with their siblings...as long as it's helping and not having them do the parents job....they have a great family and seem to be calm parents and loving parents ...
And older children have helped for all throughout history with their younger siblings...
as it should be and happening in all cultures.
Thankyou for sharing
I just wonder how her body copes with so many births... And how on earth can the parents give them all the attention they need?
They can’t. The older kids have to help
Lovely family and love the show.
Absolutely love watching this wonderful family who financially support their family with no help from anyone. Much love to you all ❤
That can change for anyone
anyone can become ill or disabled and if you are jealous of sick or disabled people you need a reality check....
Except they do not pay enough tax to cover the cost of education and medical care for the size of their family. Several of their adult children are living in social housing and drawing benefits. You may be happy to subsidise their lifestyle and constant holiday addiction but many of us are not.
@@olepammy5830 there's nothing wrong with social housing! I brought my family up in what was then known as council housing, as did many of families. We need more social housing, too many young familes are struggling to find affordable accomodation these days
@@olepammy5830 Those kids will pay taxes when they are old enough though. So your argument makes no sense. EDIT: Oh, and the holidays came from when they became popular no? Also, how many adult children do they even have?
@@GabrielNicho Your reply does not address the reality that they do not contribute enough to cover the cost of their children to the state. As the girls are already pumping out babies, living in subsidised social housing and not working means they are costing even more. I do not see any evidence of their adult children paying back the state at all. How many of them are actually working? Funnily enough, we are not given that information. As I said you might be happy to subsidise their lifestyle, many of us are not.
They can afford luxury holidays but encourage their daughters to take up valuable social housing spaces
I don't understand why you would have that many children
What about all the strain of the pregnancies on her body but if there happy fair enough
@MissX33 fair enough
@@shayne8980 I can see what you are saying. I guess we are all different. I would have loved more children. I am blessed with four. My first is severely disabled, and my 4th was born with a completely different unrelated disability. I knew it was time to stop then, and be thankful for what I have - four much loved children.
That's Right...I Maybe Part Of The "And Counting "!💁🏽♂️
Wa du mean u gotta elaborate a little bit on that sounds a bit mad
Kids and counting
Loving the new show, looking forward to seeing your future plans
The parents that can’t get their two kids to school on time need lessons from these guys
I like watching them but how can they say they want privacy when all they do is film the family
They said they wanted privacy in their home, that's all.
I would be interested n actually hearing what the children feel about being part of such a big family. I watch the programme, but I feel you don't really get an insight into the views of the kids.
Lovely well balanced family love watching this series Sue looks amazing
Sue should be on the panel of Loose Women 👍
My husband is one of 17 and I thought that was a lot!! Z
Also, not fair on the kids to have cameras in their faces all the time!
❤❤❤ amazing parents
Lovely people, awesome family!
She’s 49 now , so it’s really unlike that she can have any more … but you never know …
I think the presenter should not have said, “they say that’s it” because from watching their series, I can tell, that is it!. Also they have grandchildren now & may have more.
I live in the USA, how do I watch the new show on Channel 5?
Down load my 5 app
Writing from the USA.
You can’t.
You have to wait if it’s posted here to RUclips, or if they post it on their instagram.
Met Noel and daughter Kate at a food event.. so nice so genuine and their pies are very nice.
They all talk over each other
They are both adopted and the last series Noel had traced his birth mother but nothing mentioned in this new series.
Nobody seems to talk about he got a her, a 14 year old, pregnant at 19! How is that not questioned?
I didn’t know that at all! That’s completely disgusting. Not to mention illegal.
Different time. Wrong yes, but times were different. Romeo and Juliette laws apply. Get a grip
@@frollockinthemeadow it wasn’t Shakespeare's time either was it 🤣
@@frollockinthemeadow times weren’t that different mate it was only 30 odd years ago
they are happily married years later, find something else to be angry about lol. bore off @@ghostlykelp
Love this family 💕💕
I believe that if you have more than 5 children then you should pay additional tax for each additional child to cover the cost of education and medical care. Only the highest earners would pay enough tax to cover those costs for 5 children so the tax payer would already be subsidising but 5 should be the limit then you need to pay more for the extra services your family will be using. Others should not subsidise those who want large families. Please don't reply they don't draw benefits, that is not the point I am making.
True
Beautiful family
The only thing I wonder is when their kids all have kids, and if they each had big families it would be so hard to keep track of everyone lol. But as long as everyone on earth isn’t having 22 kids it’s ok for rare families to do so is ok, as it makes them happy
Its disgusting. What role models they are for up and coming young families making young girls think they can spray out kids year after year
@@Fullmoonhowl101 why shouldn't they have more kids if they want them ? End of the day they don't sponge off the government. They have a business and they work hard. They provide for their kids. If they were on the dole..... a different story!
That’s not going to happen, and your ‘lol’ is inappropriate.
Oldest son, Chris, has three biological kids with his wife, and she has four from a previous relationship;
Oldest daughter, Sophie, has said, ‘three is enough for me’;
Second oldest daughter, Chloe, only had one child;
Third oldest daughter, Millie, has also said, ‘three is enough for me’;
I don’t think any of the other kids have kids.
They seem like a wonderful family!
Love The radfords. Unfortunately channel5 is no longer showing in Ireland 😢I miss their show to much
A lovely couple, you can’t fault them. They seem to have it more together than most of us 😂
Well he did get her pregnant when she was 13 and he was 17 nearly 18 so….
This family is lovely been watching them for years plus their bringing the children well as happy children make good human being hat's off to mom and dad.
4 left so 17 at home, the eldest boy, three girls, am i right?
And now the Radford family are due to have their 13th grandchild
Winnie Wallace... What a nice family, and lovely parents.Good luck with the new house project.looking forward to seeing the outcome of that.
Please Do Longer Shows on utube Because I got to see this Clip in You tube ? I miss Out on alot after Years of Watching . I really Enjoy the Show . Would like to know what Daniel was Upset Over? What happened to Katie and Conner? Your New Home? Thank You
It’s not that I think they are wrong to have so many. I personally just think it’s not socially responsible considering all the children in foster care. (Sorry I’m American not sure what y’all call it)
What's the children in Foster care got to do with them, they haven't asked anyone for help to rear their kids. Everyone is so judge mental about large families, I come from a family of over 12 kids and believe me life wasn't easy. This couple work hard and yes the tv programme has helped them financially and their RUclips channel most likely brought in sponsors and I say the best of luck to them. And any of the trolls on here who are so vile in their comments , take a luck at your own lives and then get on with your own life.
@@verali164 triggered are we? My comment about foster care was simply that. There are thousands of children in care who could have benefited from a family that doesn’t mind lots of kids. As a matter of fact I didn’t say anything about the family being to big. I said that for people who want large families there are lots of children waiting. Be offended by that if you choose to.
Why would i be offended , fostering isn't for everyone. People are too quick to judge.
@@nicholedowning8341 I agree, it would be nice to see more families in the UK consider fostering or adoption
@@verali164 you are the only one judging here. So whatever.
Think it’s quite rude to ask if having more and when say no multiple times says they say that’s it. She’s certainly at menopause age so why say that! Common sense Ruth
I think Sue is just under 50 ish, which isn't menopause age for some people. Wasn't for me...mine felt quite short and ended when I was 56.
Ruth Langsford would ask you what; you had for breakfast 😋 unbelievable person 😮
no they aren't having anymore Heidie was their last one
Yay sue and noel,!❤
Ohhh lots of child allowance over 22 years.....
So everyone entitled to it !!!!! There not in benefits like so many big families in England
They might not get it……..not every person does now.
We don't receive child benefit.
Yea same, I don’t either x
@@sarahjane8949not everybody has 22 kids
Best of luck to em.
They a wonderful family I love watching them they great
Love this couple.
Hats of to them x
Love the programme. The Jake guy is so miserable all the time!!😂
I know I always think that.
Can't wait for them to move in there New House it's Gorgeous. Looking forward to watching Sunday's.
As long as they're paying for their own kids, good for them!
very beatyfuly news
The radford family should definitely give supernanny a phone call!
Good luck to them hardworking own business, not like some wasters claiming everything, especially ones that shouldn’t be here
This interview was so rehearsed or scripted 😮
As is the new series! Fake staged and dramatic!!
They are fantastic I love watching
It would’ve been 22 children that this couple should’ve had if Alfie had lived and now it’s only 21 children that have survived the birth Alfie who was the 17th child died during the birth and if he’d lived he would’ve 10 this year
Noncey nole
why do they always ask how good they look?
Lovely family... big fan ❤
I love this couple and their kids , respect to them
Love um sue and noel
So their 1st child was conceived when the mum was 13 and the dad is 5 years older making him 18 at the time. Am I the only 1 bothered by this!?
They gloss over that little fact!!!
sorry if i’m wrong but i believe there oldest child is 32 and the mum is 49 therefore she was 17 possibly 16 when he was born. the father was anywhere from 20 to 21. definitely still bothers though !!
god last kid already 4 that crazy
I love how normal they are
WHY SO MUCH PUBLICITY FOR HAVING SO MANY CHILDREN
I can't help loving them
I’m sorry what does the name of this show mean 😂
Hard working man. Great mum.
i dont under stand them been botherd about people comming to see them because you can tell with vlogging your home out side the gaRDEN PEOPEL WORK IT OUT WHERE U ARE you love been in the limelite showing all what you do
Even if they weren't in the limelight you would still get trespassers.
Regardless if you're in the limelight or not it's not OK to trespass on other people's property.
They have had people entering their garden and knocking at their door.
its a addiction to the pregnancy/baby stage its as simple as that kids grow up parents get bored and they start again also wasn't he 18 at the time of the first kid while she was only 13? apparently were just gonna overlook that
He was 17 she was 13 when first pregnancy,he was 18 she was 14 when first baby was born.
@@clairejohnson4643 13? Were they married?
@@cynthianolder3557
No they weren't married
Illegal in other words!!!
I'm still puzzled why people think it's ok him getting a 13yr old girl pregnant. I'd be absolutely heartbroken if that was my daughter.
And they want primacy dont put your lives out there
1: Privacy not primacy
2: Even if they were never on TV or RUclips You would still get trespassers.
There's a big difference between people taking pictures of your house and then opening your gate and intruding on private property; that's totally unacceptable behaviour!
Stop treating these family floggers like celebrities. She had 22 children it’s move on
I agree. There are mums out there who inspire me more - carers for severely disabled children, such as myself (two of my four children have two different disabilities). I see mums battling through storms and really admire the way they deal with it as I know first hand how hard that is - not just physically but emotionally too. The Radfords are very fortunate in that respect. I don't dislike them, but they don't inspire me.
The radford family should definitely be on Sesame Street for sure!
More like Benefit Street for all the money they take from the state in terms of Child Allowance, Education etc.
@@user-wx5dl2bz4tNot one single Bradford family is even on benefits 😅 he owns his own pie business
Leave them alone,they have their own money, no benefits, kids well and looked after well. Good for them. Go sue and Noel ❤😊🌹
Child benefit? Still a benefit.
@@ChelleKT1 yes completely agree and child tax credits what they get
Learn about the environment and overpopulation. 22 kids is insane, imagine the state of the earth if everybody had that many kids
@@Chanel.livd4_ White people have massively low birth rates. So it's not like that's not going down anyway.
@@GabrielNicho that’s not an excuse to have 22 kids. Sue and Noel are both adopted so I guess it stems from that
Going for the third football team then.
Bet they were claiming benefits when she had her first at 14
They claimed benefits from 1989 to 2012 back in 2012 they were getting £68,000 per year in tax credits and child benefits as noel only worked part time 16 hours a week but then the government brought in the benefit cap of a maximum of £22,000 per family and that's when they went on the channel 5 show then noel started working full time
Yes and they are making out as though they have worked for all there money
It’s secondary school not high school
Big fan of this beautiful family x
The way they dressed her 🤕...someone decided that it's not okay if she looks too good.😏
No there’s a family with 35 kids so these are not biggest.
they mean in the UK
They meant in the uk.
35? Were any of them adopted? 35? Guess I am not doing the math
They’ve hardly altered.
🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️
Why didn’t a doctor tell her to stop with having babies
22 is absolutely irresponsible..... They're addicted and selfish. I hope everyone of them work and contribute to the NHS and society...
how is it up to you to judge what they have chosen to do with their lives. They aren't on benifits. They pay for everything themselves
Not as much as the boats costing England far more
@@ajd6627by the way Noel paid enough in TAX 👌
In the uk NHS is free also the radfords have a pie business, tv show and RUclips.
Absolutely awful people. I feel sorry for the kids they can't have a normal relationship with there parents
They have a better relationship than lots of other people, if not most people. How can you say they are awful...they are lovely and come across as very kind and loving. I'd say you don't really know what an awful person is, if you think those 2 are awful.
Their TV show is staged just for our entertainment. A lot of their children have had to grow up with cameras in their faces, just for their parents to make money from them.@@amandadavies..
Having a child at 14 to an 18 year old, not right at all and now making money out of the litter, shocking!
They are a horrible couple, as they use their children to make money.. She was under age when they had their first child and he was much older than her. They now have problems with some of their adult children who don't agree with the way they have been treated by them.
Honestly, you’re not the first person to say that and you won’t be the last. Boring.
Does that not tell you, that they are not a nice couple? @@sallywright8065
Don't agree with the way they've been treated? At least give an example.
Absolutely spot on. Finally somebody with the same mindset as me who reads between the lines. Well done 👏
Said who? Their adult kids haven't said a thing other than the fall out with Millie, who's boyfriend got aggressive, hence why they wouldn't take them to Disney land 🙄. Maybe get facts before gossiping lol
They won’t know what to do with themselves when the other 18 leave home.
Enjoy the Grandchildren❤❤
"GRANDKID'S
@@user-ob4xh4gs7r I meant that the house will be so quiet once all have flown the nest as grandkids won’t be with them 24hrs a day!
By the time Heidie leaves, Sue will be 67 and Noel will be 72.
And they are ALREADY enjoying grandchildren.
Sue says, “we started filming when i was pregnant with Oscar.’
At the same time, oldest daughter, Sophie, was pregnant with her oldest child, Daisy.
@@Quaker-tc8ue well as long as they are happy.
Should it be called “22 kids and done counting” 😂
That boyfriend of Chole is rude
Whyvwhat has he done
He sat with his arms folded.@@teresathompson1114
I think Katie’s boyfriend is the same - he’s just muscling in on this new series!
I can’t help it this whole thing isn’t done for attention today hey draws attention to the two people that should’ve stopped at no more than three look at it has affected the other kids this isn’t normal it is as if this whole thing was done to get attention to themselves and let’s be honest it does this says a lot about this about the TWO Supposedly adults draws attention to them and this is just sick because behind the scenes what’s really going on after theyare no longer on camera? And these two people lie at the age they really met so much really going on here a human body cannot take only so much abuse can you people that say yeah we like them but you’ve noticed were at times on RUclips you can’t make comments but I’m making a comment now that’s child abuse how do you know what pride comes before a fall doing really know the truth about this game I can’t help but wonder if she isn’t doing this to get attention driving herself because it is getting attention and they wouldn’t be on RUclips if they didn’t need financial help what’s really going on behind the scenes
❤❤❤❤ what amazing family! I have 5 kids and unfortunately on benefits please give me a secret how to back to job? As im a chef and defenetly not change anything to be a cleaner! I go so hard to get this qualification so please any advise
