Britain's biggest family is set to get even larger after Sue Radford's daughter announced she is pregnant. The burgeoning brood, best known for their TV show 22 Kids & Counting, are set to expend further in the months ahead after Katie and boyfriend Connor confirmed the news on Instagram. They held a gender reveal as the parents-to-be kicked a football around with 21-year-old Katie firing a cannon to indicate they will be having a son later this year.
"Baby Carter mummy and daddy can’t wait to meet you!" Katie wrote alongside pictures and video on social media. The mum-of-22 and grandmother of 13 and her and husband Noel’s love story began 35 years ago when they met as teenagers in Kendal in the Lake District. They married in 1992, when Sue was 17 and Chris, now 34, had already arrived.
