Kate and William's disastrous Caribbean tour cost the taxpayer £226,000, it has been revealed.
The eight-day visit to Belize, Jamaica and the Bahamas in March was slammed as "tone deaf" and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge received heavy criticism for the tour, labelled as displaying "heavy colonial undertones" after they sought to emulate the Queen's visit to the region in the 1960s.
The couple also raised eyebrows for travelling in an open top Land Rover driven by a Jamaican soldier to inspect the trips, with some suggesting it "looked like a scene from The Crown".
