I'd guess likely early June latest. They waited till 4 months last pregnancy to announce. After the miscarriage shortly after, they are likely more cautious. Early June would put her at 4 months now.

Going by the recent photos and the time of their last miscarriage I would put her due date at May, maybe even April.
 
I was happy to see this news. Zara has always seemed a great, fun woman, and her daughter is sweet. I hope this pregnancy is safe and uneventful.
