Pippa, 38, already has two children with her husband James Matthews: Arthur, three, and Grace, one.
It has been widely rumoured that she is pregnant again, after she arrived at the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee celebrations in June appearing to sport a bump.
Now, a source has confirmed Pippa and James are ‘thrilled’ by news of the new arrival.

‘Pippa and her family are thrilled,’ a friend confirmed to Daily Mail’s Richard Eden. ‘It’s a very exciting time in their lives.’
Meanwhile, Kate’s parents, Carole and Michael Middleton are understood to be examining plans to create an annexe at the manor house in the village of Bucklebury that they bought for £4.7 million a decade ago.
‘Bucklebury has housed a good number of refugees and Carole has been getting advice from villagers and seeking information about how the process has worked for others in the area,’ said a source.
Neighbours who have already provided sanctuary include broadcaster Chris Tarrant and Tory politician Lord Benyon, a friend of the Middletons who recently held a fundraising event for refugees at his stately home.
The source added: ‘Carole talked about wanting refugees to feel they have their own space in her home and has been talking about the logistics of how it all works. There have been a few conversations about this, back and forth.
‘Carole suggested she and some of those who are housing refugees should meet up, to get to know each other and because she wants to find a way to house refugees herself. She’s very philanthropic and wants to be known for her charitable nature as well as her business.’
It is thought one option under consideration is to convert a living room at seven-bedroom Bucklebury Manor into separate accommodation for a family fleeing Ukraine.
There are, however, issues around security still to consider, given the regular visits to the property by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and their three children, George, Charlotte and Louis.
