Rebekah and Jamie first announced they were expecting their third child together in August this year. The couple, who have been married since 2016, have two children together: four-year-old Sofia and two-year-old Finley. Rebekah is also mum to 13-year-old Meghan and nine-year-old Taylor, her daughter and son from a previous relationship. And the four of them shared the news of their sibling's impending arrival with a series of message boards. "Oh no! They can't be serious. The adventure continues," the message read, with Finley holding another board that said: "I am so cute. Mummy and Daddy wanted another!" The series of boards ends with an ultrasound scan, which was captioned: "Coming soon..."
