To mark Queen Elizabeth II’s 70th year on the throne, Prince William and Duchess Kate embarked on an overseas trip to tour the Caribbean.“Throughout the tour, The Duke and Duchess will meet a wide variety of people from each country, including children, young people and families, frontline workers, service personnel, leaders from government, business and the charity sector as well as inspiring conservationists, and the early years workforce,” the royal family’s official Instagram account stated on Sunday, March 20, the second day of their trip. “Their [program] will also touch on a number of themes that are close to Their Royal Highnesses’ hearts and a key focus of their work with The Royal Foundation, including The Earthshot Prize, mental health and the importance of early childhood to lifelong outcomes.”During their time in Belize, the trip took an unexpected turn when William, 39, and Kate, 40, canceled their first outing at a sustainable cocoa farm in Indian Creek.

The decision came amid protests about indigenous rights and colonialism.Ahead of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge’s arrival, local villagers staged a protest and noted their frustration with the royals’ arrival on their land.

At the time, village youth leader Dionisio Shol explained why William and Kate’s helicopter arrival created an issue for the locals.“For us it really hits right at home because of the treatment.

The organizer said we had to let them use the football field and that people were coming to our village and it had to look good.
