“The big 50!” Sue exclaimed. “You’re turning 50, you’ve got to make the most of it. You’ve got to go big haven’t you.”
Ben then turned his attention to Noel, asking: “What’s the plan, Noel? How are you going to make sure she feels very special?” The dad-of-22 then shared his and Sue’s plans, revealing: “Ideally, we’d love to just get away on our own, the two of us. But, we do want to do a big family holiday, with everybody.”

Mum-of-22 Sue is due to turn 50 this year
Sue has revealed she and Noel plan to whisk their brood off to Disneyland to mark her 50th, with the trip planned for the Easter break. All 22 children and 11 grandkids will attend, as well as their grown-up kids’ partners.
Speaking to the Mirror, she said: “We are going to do a big 50th holiday with all the kids and the grandkids to Disney. We will go in the Easter break. The kids all love it and the grandkids do too.”
Sue’s celebrations won’t stop there either, as she plans to make her birthday a year-long occasion. She went on to add: “Turning 50 is such a big deal. I remember when I was 40 and that was a big deal. I absolutely hated it! So [this time], I said: ‘You know what, because I am turning 50, I am definitely having a whole year of celebrations!’ I think if you are going to turn 50, to soften the blow a little bit, it’s got to be big…It will be nice to do a few things!”
This Morning airs on weekdays on ITV1 from 10am.
