Britain's Princess Beatrice has taken up sport in a bid to maintain her newly-slim figure.
The 20-year-old royal - who was slated for her curvy physique after being pictured in a bikini while on holiday last year - has recently shed 10lbs and has now asked boyfriend Dave Clark to stop her weight creeping up again.
A source said: "Bea's lifestyle adjustment has worked wonders for her figure.
"She's not naturally sporty but her boyfriend Dave has offered to go on jogs and play tennis with her."
Beatrice also wants to learn polo and may ask cousins Princes William and Harry for some tips.
Beatrice was horrified when an unflattering picture was taken of her frolicking in the sea with Dave during a Caribbean break last April.
She said at the time: "It was such an unflattering bikini and I've got one that's so much nicer, so I could have kicked myself for wearing it. I thought people were a bit mean, although I know it comes with the territory.
"The trouble is, I don't have much confidence so it can be quite upsetting. I could probably do with losing the odd pound, though, so perhaps it is the kick I need."
