Reality TV mum Sue Radford has fired back at a troll who accused her of "showing off" about her recent jetsetting.
The 22 Kids and Counting star, hit back after an Instagram follower said she was "rubbing people's noses" in the fact she has been on lavish holidays in the last 12 months. But proud mum Sue, 48, wasn't having any of it, and defended herself and her family after the rude comment was posted on social media.
During a Q&A with fans, she took to the family's Instagram page to ask them what they're up to over the half term.

She then went on to ask what her followers are up to during the week while the kids are off school. But while she was given loads of inspiration for her half-term plans, one fan was confused. Mistaking the responses for the Radford's plans, they seem to assume that Britain's biggest family was traveling abroad again.

The disgruntled follower argued: "Really, what again! Most people with 1 child cannot afford any sort of holiday & yet you go abroad like 14 times a year & show off about it so much. Why do you rub it in people's faces, we are going here, we are buying this. It's not all about having holidays when schools are out!"

She wrote: "What are you talking about[?] Where have I said we are going on holiday??" Hitting back at the troll, she added: "Think [name] needs to learn to read."
While most people need about a year to recover from traveling with young children, the Radfords have managed to get away an astonishing 23 times in just two years - with their last trip away being to Disneyland Paris in December 2023. It was their fourth time at a Disney resort. Since December 2021, they've been on trips to Cornwall twice, the Lake District four times, Disney three times and also a luxurious trip to Lapland.
The Radfords' kids' ages range from three to 34, with Chris the oldest, down to the youngest Heidie. Their other children are Sophie, Chloe, Jack, Daniel, Luke, Millie, Katie, James, Ellie, Aimee, Josh, Max, Tillie, Oscar, Casper, Hallie, Phoebe, Archie and Bonnie.
