Belize starts the process to remove Queen Elizabeth as head of state

Belize is looking into becoming a republic, according to reports that emerged shortly after Kate Middleton and Prince William visited the nation.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are on an eight-day visit to the Caribbean on behalf of Queen Elizabeth.

The reports said that the government in Belize has announced the People's Constitutional Commission, a body under the Constitutional and Political Reform Ministry, which will be holding “consultations across the country on the continuing decolonisation process.

Kate and William landed in Belize on the first leg of their official visit. They left Belize for Jamaica and arrived in Bahamas on the last leg of their tour.
