Speaking during the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge's visit to the Bahamas, Prince William told dinner guests that whatever the future holds the bonds between the UK and Caribbean nations will 'endure'.
It's understood that speeches often may be changed during a tour, and potentially at the last minute to reflect or emphasise with more clout what has been seen or heard during a trip, but with this speech it should not be seen as a change in William's long-held stance on the matter.
William said:"It is touching to see your deep admiration for the Queen and her 70 years of dedicated service to the Commonwealth. I know as well that my grandfather, the Duke of Edinburgh, had a soft spot for the Bahamas. Catherine and I were thinking about him today as we celebrated the return of sloop sailing here by racing off Montagu Beach. He would have been in his element!"
