The £82,970 family photo

Beaming relatives smile for the camera — in a family portrait that cost £82,970.

The Williams clan jetted in from all over the world to pose for the picture as a surprise for nan Marie’s 70th birthday.

Granddaughter Martine Williams arranged for all 24 members of her family to pose for the snap.



Twenty relatives flew to London from Australia, America, Thailand, China, Japan and Jamaica.

They spent £26,320 on flights, £11,560 on hotels, £5,000 on haircuts and £3,500 on new clothes for the photo shoot. The photo session itself cost just £25.

Marie from Birmingham, was speechless as she posed with her four kids, their partners and her sixteen grandchildren.
