Katie Radford finally breaks silence on split from Connor Carter – as she shares sly dig on people making ‘no effort’
KATIE Radford has finally broken her silence on her split from Connor Carter.
After removing all trace of her child’s father from her Instagram and sparking concern amongst fans that she and Connor had separated just two months ago, the mum-of-one has now shared yet another sly dig on social media.



Nine months after giving birth to her “absolute dream baby”, the 22-year-old posted a brutal poke at people who make “little to no effort” with her son.
Posting on TikTok, the brunette, who found out she was pregnant after being with Connor for six years and gave birth on 8th October 2024 to her son Ronnie Hudson Carter, also gave her fans an insight into her situation with her toddler’s dad.
Whilst holding her son, Katie, who is a member of Britain’s Biggest Family and stars in the hit Channel 5 show 22 Kids & Counting, uploaded a video with the caption “Only them missing out not Ron .”
The eighth Radford child then penned: “One of the most hurtful things as a mum is seeing people who you thought would see your kid all the time make little to no effort.”
But the third eldest Radford daughter seemed unbothered by those who are no longer present in her life, as she danced around and laughed with her baby.
Shortly after posting the 31-second clip, Katie then confirmed: “Just to clarify this isn’t about his dad, he still sees his dad .”
The TikTok clip, which was posted on Katie’s official account under the username @itskatiex02x, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it has quickly racked up 63,600 views in just 12 hours.
Not only this, but it’s also amassed 2,464 likes, 40 comments, 43 saves and 27 shares.
Social media users eagerly raced to the comments to share messages of love and support for the young mother.
One person said: “He has everyone he needs Katie! Don’t let it bother you! Just remember if they wanted too, THEY WOULD!
“He gets enough love for the ones who make the effort he doesn’t need anyone else! He has the most amazing mummy and daddy. I’m proud of you.”
Another added: “He deserves the world, he doesn’t need childish people.”

A third commented: “It’s their loss.”
Meanwhile, someone else penned: “Especially when you see the effort they put into other grandchildren.”
Alongside clapping emojis, Katie responded and wrote: “Couldn’t agree more.”



Connor Carter even shared his thoughts and wrote: “Only needs the people who bother.. he won’t be missing out on anything/anyone.
“My little man will be surrounded by the ones he needs”
The discussion on Katie and Connor’s split began back in May, when the Radford family spent time in Florida on an extravagant £52,000 family trip to celebrate Sue Radford’s 50th birthday.
The Lancashire-based brood had a sun-soaked extravaganza in the US and alongside the Radford youngsters, Millie was joined by her husband Harley Passmore.
Katie posed on the beach whilst on the trip, but Connor was nowhere to be seen in snaps shared on the family’s Instagram account.
Connor’s fears on being a “young dad”
Not only this, but previously, on an episode of the family’s TV show, emotional scenes documented the moment then 21-year-old Connor found out he was going to become a father.
Clearly in disbelief, Connor admitted: “I didn’t think I’d ever be a young dad…scared.”


To this, Katie recognised: “It is a big change. I’m scared. I don’t think anyone’s ever ready for a kid.”
Connor then confessed: “I don’t really do well with change, I don’t like it. I’m still a kid, I’ve not grown up yet.
“I don’t think I’m ready now, I don’t think in five years time I’d be ready, but it’s something that’s going to have to change really.”
The Radford Family's TV history
THE first ever episode of 22 Kids and Counting aired on Channel 5 on 22nd February, 2021.
After the first series – which had just four episodes in it – performed well, Channel 5 commissioned a 10-episode second season, which was broadcast in 2022.
They went on to commission a third series, which included a Christmas special aired in December 2023.
The fourth season began airing in January 2024, but fans were left disappointed when it stopped after six episodes.
Sue and Noel reassured viewers that they were just taking a little break, and the next episode will be airing on 21st July.
You can catch up on all previous episodes of 22 Kids and Counting on My 5, here.
And whilst pram shopping with dad-of-22 Noel, 54, Connor explained: “I can’t imagine pushing a pram, it just feels a bit weird.
“I thought I was a few years off this yet. Didn’t expect it to be honest.
“I didn’t ever think I’d be here to be honest, not for a few years.
“Gonna have a lot of responsibility and I don’t like having it.”

Horrifying invisible ‘tap trap’ trick lets crooks spy through your CAMERA if you make simple mistake
A TERRIFYING new trick lets criminals spy through your device’s camera, if you make a simple mistake.
The worrying trap uses a malicious app to lure users into granting permissions to their camera, location and notifications, without their knowledge.



Harmful app disguised as a game
The harmful app disguises itself as a harmless game, that involves you just tapping on your screen to complete a task, for example killing bugs or chopping fruit.
These ‘fake games’ are often downloaded from third party app stores as they don’t undergo the same security checks as official stores such as Google Play, so to lessen your chances of falling victim to the scam, always make sure to download apps from official sites.
The attack, called TapTrap affects Android devices and works by secretly opening another screen, such as a prompt to grant the app permissions to your camera or location.
Usually, when the screen changes on Android devices, an animation appears, such as the new screen sliding or fading in.
However, the malicious app can tell the system that a custom animation should be used instead, that is long running and is completely transparent, meaning that the new screen is completely hidden from you.
Hidden screen
So, imagine you click on the newly downloaded game and start clicking on various parts of the screen to kill bugs or whack moles.
Without your knowledge, it then opens another invisible screen which asks you to grant permission to camera access, notifications or location access.
Any taps you make whilst the animation is running will go to the secret invisible screen, not the game.
The game will then lure you in to tapping on specific parts of the screen, meaning you are actually tapping on the button that will grant the app access to your camera or location.
TapTrack can even trick you into enabling the “Device Administrator” permission, which allows the malicious app to remotely wipe your entire device.
How to protect yourself
An easy way to protect yourself from this scam is to disable system animations in your device’s accessibility settings.
This will prevent malicious apps from being able to open invisible screens, but will also disable animations on your device.
Thankfully, Google has promised that it will fix this issue in a future update.
“Android is constantly improving its existing mitigations against tapjacking attacks”, a Google representative told BleepingComputer.
How does TapTrack work?
- Android users download a ‘game’ which is secretly a malicious app
- The ‘game’ opens a hidden second screen, unbeknownst to the user
- The user is lured in to clicking specific parts of the screen with the taps working on the invisible screen
- The user clicks on a button granting the app permission to their camera or location, without their knowledge
“We are aware of this research and we will be addressing this issue in a future update.
“Google Play has policies in place to keep users safe that all developers must adhere to, and if we find that an app has violated our policies, we take appropriate action.”
This comes after McAfee warned that one of the easiest ways to tell whether your device has a virus, is if it feels “physically hot”.
The warning reads: “When you accidentally download apps that contain malware, your device has to work harder to continue functioning.
“Since your phone isn’t built to support malware, there is a good chance it will overheat.”
Other signs that you could be being targeted include quicker battery drainage and the appearance of random pop-up ads.
