Taking to YouTube, the mum revealed she had been pregnant for ten years on the trot and now have seven kids aged ten and under.
Of course, having a family so big means the couple can’t have a regular car and have to transport their family using a bright red van.
Latovia and her family are wildly talented when it comes to dancing and has turned her seven children; Maliah, Jordyn, AJ, Ariana, Olivia, Brandon-Michael and Josie into her own personal group of backing dancers.
Introducing each family member in a YouTube short, the bumper brood were inundated with comments form followers, but some mean trolls claimed they had too many kids.
One remarked: “I’m broke but I’m gonna buy these man 100 packs of condoms.”
Another penned: “That’s like a whole class of kids.”
In the past, the parents have clapped back at haters who say their family is too large.
“Them: Y’all have too many kids. Us: And we love and take care of all of them,” they wrote in subtitles featured in the video.
They captioned the post, “Mind yo damn business!!!…but FOLLOW us,” they said in the Instagram post.
The family decided to start posting on social media during the pandemic, in a bid to spend more quality time together.
“We would receive extremely heartwarming comments and messages of how our family unit is beautiful and inspirational. Many people requested more of this imagery. Actually, it was demanded. Can you believe that there was a demand to see a positive representation of the black family unit?” reports Yahoo.
“Since we got on Instagram that became our why. We quickly realised it was bigger than just our large family having fun and sharing it with social media.
“It has become more so about being a wholesome, loving, fun, energetic, beautiful representation of the big Black family unit. We are changing the narrative of the stereotypical big family as well as the Black family,” Aaron explained.
While they received a warm welcome, there were also negative comments. Aaron notes that they’ve gotten trolling comments like “learn how to use protection,” “they must be on welfare” and “they are killing the planet with overpopulation.”
“There are so many different personalities, so many different energy levels and so many different individual superpowers,” he added. “This makes our home a playground for everlasting memories.”
While negative comments lurk at the bottom of their videos, many praise the big family for showing their daily life.
The clip went viral on their account @thecheathamfamily9 with over 14 million views.
One person wrote: “You guy’s are killing it . What an Amazing family.”
Another commented: “It’s been a while since I have seen such a big happy family. I am loving this.”
Someone else added: “Absolutely love your family, so much talent in those little humans love to see it dad and mums letting them express themselves.”
