Britain's Biggest Family Grows: Meet Cooper-Jax!

Sue and Noel Radford, the parents of Britain's largest family with 22 children, have welcomed their 15th grandchild, Cooper-Jax. The baby was cradled by the proud grandparents, Sue, 51, and Noel, 55, in a recent Instagram photo shared with fans. Cooper-Jax arrived in September 2026, weighing 7lb 8oz after a two-hour labor.

Cooper-Jax is the fourth child of their 25-year-old daughter Millie, who is the seventh of the Radford siblings. He is a younger brother to Ophelia, Chester, and Elodie. The Radford family's core now comprises 39 immediate members, including the 22 children and 15 grandchildren.

This joyous occasion follows a period of documented challenges for Millie and her partner Harley Passmore, including temporary separation, as seen on their reality show. However, the couple has since reconciled and welcomed their son. The family continues to honor their 17th child, Alfie, who was stillborn in 2014.

Sue and Noel have stated they will not be expanding their brood further, with their youngest daughter Heidi, now 6, marking the end of their children. They are now dedicated to their health and enjoying their grandparenting roles.
