Just weeks ago the loved-up pair were pictured with Sofia and Megan having a festive day out at Lapland in Ascot.
Earlier in December Rebekah had proudly cradled her baby bump while posing for naked photographs.
The 34-year-old said: “I wanted to do some pictures like Demi Moore did for Vanity Fair.
“Jamie and I know this will be our last baby and it suddenly hit me that after the birth I will never be pregnant again."
The couple had learned of the pregnancy weeks after marrying at Peckforton Castle, Cheshire, in May.
It was big year for the couple with Jamie, 29, winning the Premier League with Leicester after a historic rise to the top of the table.
He and Rebekah are said to have met in January 2014 when she was working in events and helped organise his 27th birthday party.
She had previously revealed plans to take placenta pills to help her recover from the birth.
