Sue and Noel Radford revealed on Loose Women how they use this £29 tech buy to keep track of their younger children while on holiday
Sue and Noel Radford, stars of 22 Kids and Counting, have shared the ingenious method they use to monitor their enormous brood whilst on family getaways.
During an appearance on Loose Women in 2024, the couple spoke with presenters Christine Lampard, Janet Street-Porter, Gloria Hunniford and Brenda Edwards about the difficulties of raising such a large family.
When asked how they manage to keep tabs on everyone, Sue, 48, disclosed that they rely on Apple AirTags to monitor their children during holidays. You can shop a four-pack of AirTags from Amazon for £119 here or a singular AirTag for £29 on Argos here.
Sue explained: “Well, when we are on holiday we have Apple AirTags on them which people find really funny but, because there’s obviously a lot of them we find that they work really good”.
Noel, 52, then clarified that whilst the older children are included in a WhatsApp group, it’s the younger ones – whom they are “frightened of losing” – who wear the AirTags, reports OK!.

The pair were also quizzed by Ruth about whether they manage to squeeze in any quality time together, with Noel responding: “We try to, we went out last week. It was only for an hour or two but it’s just nice to be together on our own.”
Sue continued: “I think you have to make the time don’t you. When you’ve got a lot of children and you’ve got a lot going on in your life. You’ve got to make time as a couple. You have to.”
The TV stars are parents to Christopher, 36; Sophie, 32; Chloe, 30; Jack, 28; Daniel, 26; Luke, 25; Millie, 24; Katie, 23; James, 22; Ellie, 20; Aimee, 19; Josh, 18; Max, 17; Tillie, 15; Oscar, 14; Casper, 13; Hallie, 10; Phoebe, nine; Archie, eight; Bonnie, seven; and five year old Heidie.
Their appearance on Loose Women came after an episode of their Channel 5 programme, in which the pair disclosed their plans to relocate in the hope of securing more “privacy” for their brood.
Sue and Noel explained that fans and members of the public who follow their show frequently turn up at their home and, whilst they’re happy to meet people when they’re out, having visitors arrive at their house is “just not ok”.
