Sue Radford, 48, has revealed that her 'heart broke' after her son Daniel, 24, confessed he was moving to Australia.
During the festive episode of their show 22 Kids and Counting, Daniel broke the news to his parents that he would be moving Down Under, leaving Morecambe and his family behind.
This revelation came as a shock to the mum-of-22, who was left devastated. Speaking to the camera, Sue said: "My heart just broke, obviously I was really happy for him but also sad."
The reality TV star continued: "It’s a full day to get to Australia on a plane so it will feel very strange. That news feels like this will be the last Christmas we’re all together as a family."
Luckily for Sue, Daniel had thought ahead and already booked a flight home for December 2024, meaning he will be able to spend Christmas with his family next year.
In a creative Christmas cracker gift, Daniel revealed his ticketed surprise, leaving Sue delighted.
