The Radfords jet off to Florida AGAIN - just four weeks after £52,000 Disney blowout for mum Sue's 50th
The Radford family are back in Florida - just a month after their lavish £52,000 getaway to the sunshine state to mark matriarch Sue's 50th birthday.
Britain's biggest family, known from Channel 5 's 22 Kids and Counting, have returned to the US for another sun-soaked adventure and are sharing every moment with their fans on social media.
Posting to Facebook, the Morecambe-based clan uploaded snaps from their visit to Alligator Farm in the Everglades, where they got up close with the wildlife.
Both older and younger children looked thrilled, beaming in the sunshine, as they sat together on a wooden boat.
Dad Noel got into the swing of things as he posed with a straw safari hat and even held up a giant cricket, with the family joking: 'Think Noel thinks he's turned into Indiana Jones with his new hat.'
Elsewhere, the youngest Radfords were seen building sandcastles and playing on the beach while wearing adorable sun hats as the family made the most of their time away.
The group also took in the sights at Disney World once again, with a front-row seat to the famous Epcot fireworks show.
'The Epcot fireworks display was pure Disney magic! Noel even got a front-row seat… From the pram! Bless him, it's been a LONG (but exciting!) day,' they captioned one video.
This time, the Radfords were joined by their close friends, the Walkers - another supersized family who have 11 children of their own.
Fans were quick to share their support, flooding the Radfords' comments with praise.
One person wrote: 'I have so much respect for you all as a family. Really well behaved children and grandkids as well. A big pat on the back for you both. You've done a brilliant job.'
Another added: 'I would love this. I have friends in Florida and sometimes alligators appear in their back garden - I wouldn't be so keen on that!'
And a third noted: 'Lovely photos, looks like a great time, beautiful family x'.
Another person commented on the children's big smiles, saying : 'The faces say enough.'
Their latest trip comes just weeks after their headline-making £52,000 Florida holiday for Sue's milestone birthday.
The family previously told The Mirror they had been 'feeling the pinch' financially but didn't hold back when it came to celebrating Sue's big 5-0.
That trip featured visits to Disney parks, pool days at their luxury villa and plenty of sweet family moments, including a snap of Sue wearing Minnie Mouse ears and another of two of her daughters wearing matching outfits and backpacks, each with identical dolls tucked inside.
One photo showed the whole family posing happily with Donald Duck, while another captured carefree moments by the villa pool.
But the birthday trip wasn't entirely without its bumps. Sue shared her frustrations on Instagram over lengthy wait times at the theme park, particularly for the Guardians of the Galaxy ride.
'95 minute wait for Guardians of the Galaxy?' she posted. 'Not liking the fact they removed the virtual queuing system. Anyone else wish they'd kept that system?'
The change meant park guests could no longer join a virtual queue from their phones and instead had to wait in person, often for well over an hour.
Meanwhile, the family also made headlines this week for a very different reason - a personal update from the Radfords' eldest daughter, Sophie.
Sophie Radford, 31, took to Instagram to reveal she is no longer with her husband, Joseph Broadley.
The couple married in 2015 and share three children: Daisy Mae, 12, Ayprill Louise, 10, and Leo, nine.
Adoring fans rushed to the Radfords' comments to express well wishes for their latest trip
In a Q&A with fans, the TV personality, who has over 60,000 followers, gave quickfire answers to a series of personal questions, revealing her favourite food is pizza, her shoe size is four-to-five and her age is 31.
But the question that caught most attention was: 'Are you single?'
Sophie replied with an all-caps 'YES' and added: 'THAT'S ALL THAT WILL BE SAID ON IT.'
She offered no further details on the split but made it clear she was not open to discussing the matter further.
With their second Florida trip underway and their eldest daughter back in the headlines, it seems the Radfords are showing no signs of slowing down.
