Kate gets keep-fit tips off Philip, 90

[wannable]

PRINCE Philip regularly phones Prince William's bride Kate - and even gives her exercise tips, The Sun can reveal.
Philip, 90 - who fell out with daughters-in-law Princess Di and Sarah Ferguson after their marriage splits - wants to be sure Kate is settling in to royal life.

And he has offered the 29-year-old and Wills, also 29, advice on updating the kitchen of their new flat in Kensington Palace.

A source said: "Kate is really touched. It's a sign that senior royals are keen to make sure new members fit in. Prince Philip wanted to make sure the pressures weren't getting to her.

"He's even been sharing tips about his exercise routine with Kate. He is 90 but still tries to keep fit.

"And he is helping to redesign their kitchen using natural woods and Welsh slate. When he went round to visit he got out a pen and started sketching ideas.

"His designs are very practical, much more practical than the sometimes fanciful ideas of top designers.

"His ideas have been well received by William and Kate."

That's adorable. And I love the idea of Phil sketching kitchen designs and then going out for a jog with Kate! Prince Philip is by far my favorite royal.
