Queen Elizabeth news – Her Majesty ‘BANS royals from playing classic British board game at Christmas after brutal rows’

THE QUEEN has banned a classic British board game at Christmas after competitive royals got “too vicious“.

Prince Andrew let slip a funny rule Her Majesty imposed during a visit to the Leeds Building Society’s headquarters when he was presented with a game of monopoly. 

It is said that one game inspires such rage among the blue-blooded board game enthusiasts that it now permanently banned in the royal household

“The royals love a good game, but monopoly is off the cards,” a clip on the family’s YouTube channel, titled Royal Rule Book: The Royal Family’s Strangest Rules revealed.

“Prince Andrew said it is banned as it gets too vicious,” it added.

The Prince was given the property board game to mark his visit, it was reported at the time, but he politely decline the game as he reportedly revealed: “We are not allowed to play Monopoly at home.”
