Anyone familiar with Netflix award-winning original series, “The Crown,” knows Queen Elizabeth II puts loyalty to the monarchy above all else.
It’s status-quo the Queen isn’t to be denied. Ever.
So, it was humorous to read about Claire Foy, who won the Screen Actors Guild (SAG) Award for “outstanding performance by a female actor in a drama series” portraying Her Royal Highness, joke about the cast having to pay for Netflix.
“We got it [free] for six months and then it was cut off,” said Foy, as reported by In Touch Weekly.
A Netflix rep wasn’t immediately available about whether the Queen’s comp subscription would be renewed.
