A mother of 21 children shocked TV viewers when she revealed that she was just 13-years-old when she became pregnant to the man who is now her husband, despite the fact that he was 18 at the time.
Sue Radford appeared on Channel 4's 21 Kids and Counting on Thursday evening, 3 January, with her husband Noel as she prepared to give birth to her youngest daughter Bonnie Raye.
Both family and friends of the couple were shocked at the revelation of the latest pregnancy, with her children appearing on camera to state that they hadn't believed their 43-year-old mother when she had first revealed the news.
One friend Chloe, joked that 'she had obviously stopped taking her contraception', while son James, aged 15 said he had always wondered what went through his parents' minds and said they 'didn't know when to stop'.
Social media users pointed out that Sue Radford first became pregnant when she was 13
The fact that Noel, then her boyfriend and now her husband, was 18 at the time also raised eyebrows
The TV special provoked comment on Twitter both in favour and critical of the outsized family
At the end of the episode it was revealed that she had successfully given birth after just 12 minutes in labour, however many viewers were distracted over a revelation earlier on in the programme that Sue had actually given birth to her first child with husband Noel when she was 13-years-old and he was 18.
The family featured on the Channel 4 show on January 3. Back row left to right: father Noel Radford, Chloe and Chris, Daniel, Katie, Josh, Archie, Millie and Jack.

One viewer Paige O'Neill said: 'I can't get over the fact that an 18 year old got a 13 year old girl pregnant, I mean that's a crime!'
This is while another viewer called Rebecca said: 'so he first got her pregnant when she was 13 and he was 17/18? Disgusting. Also, no way his pie shop can fund all that'.
Another viewer Nina Marshall complemented the children and 'how lovely' they were but said the situation was 'weird'.
She said: 'They are lovely kids but I can't help but feel a bit weird about the fact when he was 18 he got a 13 year old pregnant.
While another exclaimed: 'Did he really have a kid with her when she was a child!?#21kidsandcounting.'
The show highlighted the financial plight the family is set to face with another child on the way and showed Mr Radford working in the pie shop that he runs with the help from his daughter Chloe. However some viewers took to social media to stress the 'burden' they were putting on public services.
One view said: 'I don't get what's inspiring about this family. Pregnant at 13 by an 18yo, continue to breed without a card to the burden they're putting on the environment or public services. No admiration from me. #21kidsandcounting.'
However Mr Radford stressed that the family were not on benefits and that most people just assumed that they were and that the rest of society was 'paying for them'.
Just last year Mrs Radford spoke to This Morning hosts Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford about her easy labour with her last child.
Speaking on the This Morning sofa she said: 'She was very quick she was not hanging around – I think they've got my labour down to about 12 minutes.
'I said definitely no more last time. I think we just love having a big family. Welcoming a newborn into our life.
'If it's an addiction we're giving it up. We'll always have lots of grandchildren.'
Link hienalouca.com Interesting to note Looking for an investor or sponsor for a project to grow dinosaurs and relict plants. Requires the sum of investments from 400000$ to 900000$. The exact amount can not say because there are many nuances. It will be necessary to build a small laboratory with certain parameters. To all interested persons please write on an email angocman@gmail.com . It is the scientific project and I do not know whether it is possible to earn on it. The probability of success of the project is approximately 60%. That will be very interesting.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
