Royal Family snub: The ONE thing Royals WON'T do in lockdown - ‘Gets too vicious’

THE ROYAL FAMILY have to stick to a wealth of protocol and royal rules in everyday life, but what is the one thing the Queen has banned The Firm from doing as it "gets too vicious"?

The Royal Family have a plethora of rules and regulations to adhere to in almost every situation, from when and how to shake hands to the timing to change from a fascinator to a tiara at a dinner party. However, there is one rather unusual thing the Queen has reportedly banned The Firm from doing.

Royals will not pass go, collect £200 or buy up all the train stations as the game can reportedly get "too vicious".

In December 2008, Prince Andrew attended Leeds Building Society’s newly-refurbished Albion Street headquarters.

Before he left the Duke of York was given the property board game Monopoly to mark his visit.

However, Andrew had to politely decline the game as he reportedly revealed: “we are not allowed to play Monopoly at home”.

The Daily Telegraph reported Andrew explained the game could cause arguments within the family, as “it gets too vicious”.

What else can the Royal Family not do?

Heirs cannot travel together

One royal rule dictates direct heirs cannot travel together - in order to protect the line of succession.

This dates back to a time when air travel was less safe, and Prince William has broken this protocol a few times - travelling with his children to various locations.

However, it is said once George turns 12, he and William will likely be required to fly separately to royal engagements.

Eat garlic or shellfish

The Queen has banned a number of foods from her royal kitchens - two of them being garlic and shellfish.

Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, confirmed the royal family is not supposed to eat garlic when appearing on Masterchef Australia in 2018.


The correct answer is: 1

Queen Elizabeth II thought it made family members too vicious.
