The reason why the British royal family aren’t allowed to play Monopoly is so relatable

The British royal family have been through public divorces, cheating and abdication...but if you really want to break them, a game of Monopoly will do the trick. 

Despite dealing with their fair share of scandals in the public eye, the British royal family seem genuinely close. Princes Harry and William speak with love of both of their parents - despite much public embarrassment during Prince Charles and Diana’s messy break-up - and the Duchess of Cambridge has spoken out about how much Queen Elizabeth adores her family. 

However, it seems there’s one thing that’s guaranteed to cause a rift in the family, and it’s something we can all relate to; playing Monopoly. 

During a public engagement, Prince Andrew admitted that they’re not allowed to play the classic board game. According to the Telegraph, when he was presented with the game, he said: "We're not allowed to play Monopoly at home.

“It gets too vicious.”

Naughty, naughty.
