Parents of Britain's biggest family enjoy 30th wedding anniversary trip to paradise islands

Noel and Sue Radford

The parents of Britain's biggest family have experienced a trip of a lifetime to the Maldives to celebrate their 30th wedding anniversary.

Noel and Sue Radford from Morecambe - stars of the Channel 5 TV show '22 Kids and Counting' - enjoyed some rare time without their children as they jetted off for five nights in the Indian Ocean paradise.

Childhood sweethearts Noel and Sue, who have had 22 children, shared some of their holiday moments on their 'The Radford Family' Facebook page, which has 737,000 followers.

"After 30 years and 22 kids we decided it was time to truly spoil ourselves and we absolutely loved every second of this journey," said Noel and Sue.

"We feel so lucky to be able to do a trip like this."

Noel said on their vlog that the getaway was their children's idea.

"Everyone is being well looked after, the older kids have all clubbed together and are helping us out," he said.

"It was their idea that we must go away."

Sue said: "It's a massive milestone, 30 years. Noel, I've put up with you for 30 years!"

"Snap!" said Noel in reply.

The couple shared video and photos of their villa and the stunning scenery of The Maldives.
