The makers of the hit sitcom "The Crown" have decided to embrace salary parity after star Claire Foy earned less than her male co-star Matt Smith for the first two seasons. On Tuesday, the producers of the Netflix show announced that "Going forward, no one gets paid more than the Queen", at a conference here, reports hollywoodreporter.com.

Foy played Queen Elizabeth in the drama and earned a Golden Globe, SAG Award and Emmy nomination, among other accolades, for the part. Smith joined "The Crown", where he played Prince Philip for two seasons after featuring for three seasons on "Doctor Who" as the protagonist.
