Hi. Several candidates. Betelgeuse in Orion is so large it has another star orbiting WITHIN it's atmosphere. Eta Carinae is huge also. But second place? Not sure.

The three stars with the largest known sizes are KW Sagitarii (distance 9,800 light-years), V354 Cephei (distance 9,000 light-years), and KY Cygni (distance 5,200 light-years), all with radii about 1500 times that of the Sun, or about 7 astronomical units (AU).
