Kate doesn't workout regularly, but when she does, she stays pumped with tunes. "Um, what is this strange word 'workout' you speak of? I don't really exercise that often (okay: more like never) but I am obsessed with music. I usually listen to a mix of hip hop and deep house mostly. Drake, Disclosure, Flume….I like to keep it pretty mellow," she told Bravo.

Kate loves herself some gourmet food. "I was lucky enough to go to Per Se a few months ago and that was unbelievable; refined defined. Thomas Keller is a genius. On an every day basis though, my first choice will always be sushi," she told Bravo about her dream meal. When she was in Thailand she also indulged in the food. "I got Pad Thai yesterday and I think it was the first time since Thailand," she told Decider, revealing that she ate a ton of it while there. "I think I'll still wait another six months [to have it again]." She added: "I usually get chicken because I'm too lazy to go dog food shopping so I give some of the chicken to my dog."

She Gets Deep Tissue Massages

Kate is all about a "good, deep tissue massage, although I don't see it as that much of a splurge," she told Bravo. "It's more a medical necessity than a luxury. I carry all of my stress in my shoulders and if I don't have it corrected after a while, even just sleeping can be a real pain in the neck. (awful pun, I know….couldn't help myself)."

She Takes Me Time

When Kate needs a break she takes a break. "I felt the same way I do every season, like, what just happened, thank god it's over, get me to a hotel. I stayed in Thailand for about a week and just chilled out. I know it was an expensive hotel, I had a private pool, I just needed seven days before I went back to the real world to decompress," she told Decider.

She Drinks Espresso Spiked Martinis

Kate stays energized by adding a jolt to her alcoholic beverages. "Espresso martini in every country I visit," she wrote in an Instagram Story. "While past studies hinted that coffee might have a dark side, newer research suggests that it may actually have health benefits," says the Mayo Clinic. "Why the reversal? It's hard to look at just one aspect of diet and connect it to a health condition because so many other factors that could play a role. For example, early research on coffee didn't always take into account that heavy coffee drinkers also tended to use tobacco and be sedentary. When newer studies adjusted for such factors, they found a possible association between coffee and decreased mortality. Coffee may offer some protection against:

  • Parkinson's disease
  • Type 2 diabetes
  • Liver disease, including liver cancer
  • Heart attack and stroke."
