The family have been in the public eye since 2012 when they first starred in the documentary ’15 Kids and Counting’.

Their fourth series, ’22 Kids and Counting’, aired before Christmas.

Sue, 49, recently spoke about how she considered leaving her husband after facing difficulties with their business in the 2000s.

The couple had then invested in a location on the high street in bustling Kendal, in Cumbria, to expand their pie shop business.

But an outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease – thought to have cost the UK economy £8 billion overall – hit the country and left the pair devastated.

Speaking to the Mirror, Sue admitted that she struggled to see how their ‘marriage would survive’.

‘There were days when I’d think: “that’s it, I’m leaving the business and Noel, I just can’t do it anymore”,’ she revealed.

‘But our marriage has always been strong – and having the kids kept us right. We stuck together and got through it. It was sink or swim and we chose to swim.’ 

Sue recently threatened to start naming and shaming trolls who abuse her online when she was cruelly branded a ‘disease’ after she published snaps from a recent family holiday.
