Monty family

The Monty family is a large family residing in Veronaville. Their name is a reference to the Montague family in Romeo and Juliet, as is much of Veronaville. They are involved in a feud with the Capp family. Romeo Monty is currently in a secret relationship with the Capp heiress, Juliette. The Monty family lives on the Monty Ranch. Several members of the Monty family are overweight, most likely because the family is involved in Culinary arts. The family is patrilineal while the Capp family is matrilineal.

The Monty family made a comeback in Monte Vista from The Sims 3 Store. There are two separate families in the town: the first generation and the newer generation.

Inheritance
The Monty family is patrilineal, meaning that the wife takes the husband's name and inheritance passes down through male offspring. The head of House Monty is therefore Patrizio Monty. As both the Capps and Summerdreams are matrilineal, the Montys cannot be easily married to either of them.

The line of succession to the headship of House Monty is as follows: Interestingly, this means that although Romeo is presented as being the heir to House Monty, he is actually the last in line of the male successors. As this is similarly true with Juliette Capp, who is second to last of the female successors to House Capp, their romance should perhaps not be as significant a scandal as it is made out to be by the creators of the game as they are far from being the heirs to their respective dynasties. pt-br:Família Montez Семья Монтекки Hartverloren familie Rodzina Montek
