SUPERMUM Sue Radford gave birth to her SIXTEENTH baby — then told baker hubby Noel: “I want more.”
Sue got broody as soon as they took baby Casper home to swell Britain’s biggest family.

Latest addition ... Casper

And the 37-year-old — who looks after her kids in a former care home and is NOT on benefits — says: “I just love being a mummy. We’re so lucky.”
Sue first got pregnant aged 14. She and Noel, now 41, were determined to keep baby Chris, now 23, as both were given up for adoption at birth.
The sweethearts married when Sue was 18 and Sophie, now 18, soon arrived. Then came Chloe, 17, Jack 15, Daniel, 13, and 11-year-old Luke.
Millie, ten, Katie, nine, James, eight, Ellie, seven, Aimee, six, Josh, four, Max, three, and Tilly May, two, followed.
Oscar arrived last October before 8lb 8oz Casper was born seven weeks ago after a 16-MINUTE labour.
Sue, who drives the kids around in a minibus, said: “He’s settled in like a dream. I get very emotional when I see the children together. I know people stare. Some think they won’t get the attention they need. They don’t realise how dedicated we are. And maybe we’ll be lucky enough to have more.”

The family spends £250 a week on food. Every day they polish off three loaves of bread, two boxes of cereal and 18 pints of milk. An average supper can include 16 pork chops, 15lb of spuds, three cabbages and 30 carrots.
Their nine-bed home in Morecambe, Lancs, has an industrial-sized washing machine and huge fridge. And now it will be even MORE crowded after daughter Sophie gave birth to Sue and Noel’s first grandchild Daisy.
