Sue and her family have recently returned from their dream holiday to Florida.

The social media star and her husband Noel were treating their children and grandchildren to a holiday of a lifetime, visiting Disney World and relaxing in the sun.

However there was some drama on the trip after Sue began choking during dinner. Fortunately her 20-year-old daughter Katie sprung into action and saved her mum's life.

Sue detailed the shocking experience, stating that the event "scared the life" out of her and she saw her "life flash in front of her" when she began to have difficulty breathing.

The Radford's granddaughter Daisy, 11, also became unwell on the holiday and was complaining of earrache.

Noel and Daisy's mum, 29-year-old Sophie, took the young girl to a medical centre where she received antibiotics.

This left the family with a large health bill totalling almost $300 for Daisy's treatment, however she is expected to make a full recovery.

Despite the stressful events, it appears that the Radford family had a wonderful time in Florida.

Sue kept fans up-to-date with all of her children's adventures, sharing lots of sweet holiday snaps on social media.

The Radford's first gained fame appearing on 22 Kids and Counting which followed Sue, Noel and their 22 children.

Sue and Noel are parents to Chris, 33, Sophie, 29, Chloe, 27, Jack, 25, Daniel, 24, Luke, 22, Millie, 22, Katie, 19, James, 17, Ellie, 18, Aimee, 17, Josh, 15, Max, 14, Tillie, 12, Oscar, 11, Casper, 10, Hallie, seven, Phoebe, six, Archie, five, Bonnie, four, and Heidie, three.
