Prince William Suggests Royal Family Supports Caribbean Countries' Decision To Separate From MonarchyMar 26 2022, 12:01 pm EDTPrince William addressed the controversy surrounding Caribbean countries' relationship with Britain during a dinner in the Bahamas. At the governor general's reception in Nassau Friday, the Duke of Cambridge spoke of the beauty he andhave seen around the islands, and said they are both incredibly grateful for the warm welcomes they have received.
He later dove into heavier topics, and alluded to the ongoing protests across the Caribbean, in which locals are calling out Britain's history of colonialism and racism and asking for the royal family to apologize and make slavery reparations. Though at Friday's dinner William didn't apologize on behalf of his country, likeearlier this week, he did say that the royal family stands by any country that wishes to part ways with the British monarchy.
"Next year, I know you are all looking forward to celebrating 50 years of independence – your Golden Anniversary. And with Jamaica celebrating 60 years of independence this year, and Belize celebrating 40 years of independence last year, I want to say this: We support with pride and respect your decisions about your future. Relationships evolve. Friendship endures," he said.
