'''Prince Phillip''' is an ally in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep]]'' and a non-player character in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Union χ]]'' in [[Enchanted Dominion]]. Betrothed to Princess [[Aurora]] upon her birth in the corresponding Disney movie, ''{{w|Sleeping Beauty (1959 film)|Sleeping Beauty}}'', he becomes an ally to [[Aqua]] when she visits Enchanted Dominion.

Prince Phillip has had a dream of his betrothed Princess Aurora since before their encounter in the forest, although he was unaware of her identity at that time. Aurora readies to flee home, but Phillip asks to see her again, and she tells him to meet her at her cottage. That night, he visits the cottage and falls right into [[Maleficent]]'s trap after the princess's curse came true.

Sometime later, [[Aqua]], a [[Keyblade]] master, becomes captive as well. The three fairies, [[Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather]], descend to rescue the prince and the Keyblade master after [[Ventus]] released Aurora's lost [[heart]] from Maleficent's clutches. Together, they transcend to King Stefan's castle to awake the princess from the spell. However, Maleficent appears before them and engages them in battle, in the form of a monstrous dragon. Aqua and Prince Phillip come together to fight the witch, but when Aqua gets blocked by a wall of flames, Phillip is forced to face her alone. The fairies enchant his sword, allowing him to defeat Maleficent. With Maleficent's magic weakened, Prince Phillip makes his way to the princess and breaks the spell with a true love's kiss.

==Design==

Prince Phillip is a thin young man with wavy, brown hair and black eyes. He dresses in a grey tunic over a high-collared, long-sleeved black shirt. He wears a black belt with a gold buckle around his waist, over the tunic. His pants are dark grey and he wears knee-high, black boots. He also wears a long, red cape with a high collar, fastened by a golden, circular pin. He wields a sword with a black guard and handle, as well as a long, thin kite shield that is grey with a silver cross decorating it.

Phillip can assist Aqua with the command "Selfless Prince" by pressing the {{Button|Square}} button when prompted. He throws her into the air and pressing {{Button|X}} at this time makes Aqua do a powerful diving attack. The two use this attack to knock down walkways in Maleficent's Castle so Aqua can access the wheels to open the gates, and during the boss battle against [[Dragon Maleficent]] to throw Aqua onto Maleficent's back and to knock Maleficent crashing to the ground.

 

Phillip originally appears in Disney's ''{{w|Sleeping Beauty (1959 film)|Sleeping Beauty}}'', voiced by Bill Shirley. He is the only son of King Hubert. Attending Princess Aurora's birth ceremony, Phillip was to be her husband so as to unite the kingdoms of King Hubert and King Stefan, Aurora's father. Once the girl took on the alias of Briar Rose and lived as a peasant woman in the forest, however, the two met for the first time in 16 years. They grew fond of each other, Phillip wishing to see Aurora once more. They arrange a meeting at the girl's cottage, Phillip meeting a trap set by Maleficent instead. The noble prince held captive by the witch, he escapes via Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather. Destroying the vengeful witch in her dragon form with the Sword of Truth, he broke the curse set on Aurora, marrying his princess at last.
