On Sunday, Fabulous exclusively revealed that Sue, 45, had welcomed a daughter weighing 7lb with husband Noel, 49, after a ten-hour labour.

They are yet to settle on a name for their eleventh little lady.

In the meantime, she has been busy getting to know her large list of brothers and sisters.

Cute snaps show some of the more junior kids amazed by the newborn.

Sue has described the birth as her "strangest" yet, due to the coronavirus pandemic.

She said: “I was more scared than I had ever been going into hospital with everything going on with the virus.

“I was so worried that Noel wouldn’t be allowed to stay with me.

“We have all been isolating and it seemed wrong to leave our safe bubble to go to a hospital.

“But when I got there I felt safe straight away.

“It was the strangest birth yet but by the end of it I would say it was actually one of the best experiences I have had.

“We can’t settle on a name we all like, but we can't register her now anyway because of corona.”

The mum-of-22, who has spent more than 800 weeks of her life pregnant, has sworn this will be her last baby.

She and her other half welcomed their first baby when she was 14, and the family famously refuse to claim state handouts.

In other parenting news, we told you how a mum has shared a genius way to store baby onesies without folding them.

We also revealed how a toddler and mum have accidentally had a flour fight after a packet tore open.

And a family-of-five have dressed up as their favourite films to cure boredom - but can you guess which they are?
