Prince Charles seeks fitness advice from Welsh rugby team

We Love To Gawk At Fit Celebs, Fitness, Celebs & Entertainment

Prince Charles invited the Grand Slam winning Welsh rugby team to Clarence House (his London home) last week. He spoke to them a bit about their Grand Slam win, but according to player Shane Williams, he was more interested in talking about fitness and training. Williams said that the Prince of Wales was interested in their fitness coach, and that he works out himself quite a bit (perhaps he's using the gym that William built for Kate).

As much as Charles might have appreciated the fitness advice, it's almost certain the team appreciated the invitation to Clarence House more -- Coach Warren Gatland said, "It's a fantastic experience to be here, you can smell the history here." The team presented Charles with a framed Welsh rugby shirt at the end of the party.

The Welsh rugby team now has to shake off any ego their Grand Slam win and visit with the Prince might have given them as they head to South Africa to play for the Prince William Cup.

Royally fit: Prince William builds a gym for Kate Middleton

Fitness, Celebs & Entertainment

I don't think anyone has had any complaints about Prince William's body -- he always looks pretty fit to me. However, it apparently took the influence of Wils' longtime love, Kate Middleton, for him to build a gym at Clarence House.

While Kate still has her own apartment, which she shares with her sister, Pippa, she spends the majority of her time at William and Harry's residence, and supposedly asked if they would allow her to build a gym there. Now that it's been installed, she and her sister are loving it because it has all kinds of amazing equipment and it's totally private.

Kate supposedly keeps her figure fabulous by working out an hour a day, and now "she even has William and Harry doing crunches and press-ups." Something tells me those boys were no strangers to working out long before Kate requested a gym, but still, it's great to see fitness playing a real role in the life of the royals!
