Prince Harry and Meghan Markle ignored warning to ‘reconsider’ Jamaica travel | Royal | News
Travellers were also made aware that certain parts of Jamaica are off-limits due to high crime rates, which could limit the help available to American tourists.
The no-go zones include parts of St Ann’s, St Catherine’s, St Elizabeth’s, Hanover, Kingston and St Andrew, Manchester, St Thomas, Trelawny, and Westmoreland.
Specific areas within Clarendon Parish, the entire inland side of Montego Bay along the A1 highway, and The Queen’s Drive from San San to Harmony Beach Park are also included.
The advisory also states that many areas are off-limits to US government personnel due to increased risk. This refers to diplomatic officers overseeing missions and US offices abroad.
Regardless, Harry and Meghan were all smiles at the event, with the film’s star Kingsley Ben-Adir, who portrays the iconic Reggae singer, also in attendance.
Prime Minister Holness has previously expressed his desire for an elected president in Jamaica instead of a British monarch.
He shared these views with the Royal couple during their Platinum Jubilee tour of the Caribbean in 2022.
