The Duke of Cambridge made a speech over the course of the evening, thanking the Prime Minister and Governor General for their warm welcome. Speaking about the Queen, he said: "Ladies and Gentlemen, I am honoured to convey the very warmest wishes from my grandmother, The Queen of Belize, on the occasion of her Platinum Jubilee.
"She always speaks so fondly of her visits to Belize, which of course included a memorable stop here at Cahal Pech in 1994. And she may have mentioned something about a gibnut."
The Duke also spoke fondly of his wife, saying: "Catherine and I have been deeply touched by the warm welcome Belizeans have given us. We only wish we could have stayed longer."
Earlier in the day, the Duchess joined her husband in venturing into the depths of the Belize jungle to meet British troops and tour a Mayan archaeological site, where she opted for a more casual outfit.
