The mother of Britain’s biggest family has revealed the huge number of Christmas presents she has for her children this year as she described herself as a ‘demon wrapper’.
Sue, 44, and husband Noel Radford, 48, from Lancashire, who welcomed their first child thirty years ago, and gave birth to their 22nd child – daughter Heidie – in April, took to Instagram to share an enormous pile of presents set to be wrapped ahead of the festive period.
With Christmas now just three weeks away, Sue revealed that an entire room in their home has been dedicated to storing presents – with hours of work expected ahead of her to wrap them all.
The mother-of-22 posted on Instagram stories with the caption: ‘Might as well make a start on the wrapping.’

Previously, the Radfords have revealed that they spend between £100 and £250 on each of their children’s gifts, which totals more than £5,000, according to The Sun.
Among the pile of presents was a Fischer Price Toys box, a cot, and a cotterpillar which is a favourite of cleaning influencer Mrs Hinch and Loose Women presenter Stacey Solomon.
Additionally, the room was piled high with boxes from Amazon, with the floor and bed hidden beneath all the gifts.
Going through 60 to 70 rolls of paper every year, Sue considers herself to be an expert wrapper who can wrap as many as 20 presents in just 15 minutes.
Taking to Instagram stories, Sue revealed just how many gifts are needed to please her massive family and said it was about time she started wrapping them

With so many presents each year, she said one of the challenges she and her husband have is finding places to hide them all – and then remembering where they all are.
Sue has now spent more than 800 weeks of her life pregnant after having her first child at aged 14.
Noel had a vasectomy after baby number nine but had it reversed shortly afterwards.
The most recent child is Heidie, who was born in April, shortly after Bonnie Raye, who was born in November 2018,
It was previously revealed that Sue (pictured) and husband Noel, 45, spend more than £5,000 on presents for their children each year
The others include Chris, 30, Sophie, 25, Chloe, 23, Jack, 22, Daniel, 20, Luke, 18, Millie, 17, Katie, 16, James, 15, Ellie, 14, Aimee, 13, Josh, 12, Max, 11, Tillie, nine, Oscar, seven, Casper, six, Hallie, four, Phoebe, three, and Archie 22 months.
The couple met for the first time when Sue was seven, before going on to have their first child when Sue was 14 and Noel was 19.
They got married in 1993 when Sue turned 18, and went on to have nine children before Noel had a vasectomy – which he later had reversed.
