The Queen and Duke of Edinburgh began their 6-month Commonwealth Tour in the Caribbean in November 1952, which made Jamaica the second territory visited by the newly Crowned Queen. The Queen and Duke paid a visit in 1966, during an extensive Tour of fifteen Commonwealth Realms and Crown Colonies. The Queen has since visited in 1975 (for CHOGM), 1983, 1994, and 2002, for her Golden Jubilee.

Princess Margaret sensibly attired on official duties in Jamaica takes me to Rihanna's frock & the ongoing ban on sleeveless tops & bare shoulders in public spaces, in defiance of GoJ guidelines. We can blame many things on the Brits, but the policing of women's dress is on us. pic.twitter.com/GyNULO3F0u

Princess Margaret first visited Jamaica in 1955, on an extensive Tour of the Caribbean Realms and Territories, and then returned in 1962, for the most important Royal Visit of all: when she presided over the Independence Celebrations, which included a variety of glittering evening events, for which the Princess wore her Turquoise Parure, the Halo Scroll Tiara, and the Lotus Flower Tiara.
