The Walton sextuplets were born at Liverpool Maternity Hospital in Liverpool, England[1] on 18 November 1983 and were the world's first all-female surviving sextuplets, and the world's fourth known set of surviving sextuplets.[2][3] The children are Hannah, Lucy, Ruth, Sarah, Kate, and Jennifer.
The children were born to Janet (née Leadbetter) and Graham Walton and grew up in the family's seven-bedroom home in Wallasey, Merseyside. On 13 June 2011 the sextuplets were featured in the ITV1 programme Moving On.[4]
In February 2015, Janet Walton's book Six Little Miracles: The Heartwarming True Story of Raising the World's First Sextuplet Girls was published by Ebury Press.
