The happy couple announced her pregnancy in September, just ahead of their second wedding anniversary on 12 October 2018.
In recent weeks, they have been nesting at Frogmore Cottage, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's UK home, ahead of the baby's arrival.
"Eugenie and Harry have always been close and they chat privately all the time," a friend previously told HELLO!. "It was Harry who suggested she and Jack could use Frogmore Cottage because it is much bigger than their cottage at Kensington Palace. It is a case of one family member reaching out to another."

Eugenie's mother previously shared her excitement at the prospect of becoming a grandmother.
"Having not had my own mother around, I've always been determined to be a very present mother with my children, and I know Eugenie will be the same with hers," Sarah told US Weekly.
"She is incredibly empathetic and will be a great mother. She is a very strong and determined person, always looking for the truth in all she does."
