• Brian Cox believes Meghan Markle “knew what she was getting into.
• Cox believes the British royal dynasty should be disbanded after Queen.
• Meghan joined the royal family so she and Harry could “cut themselves off.”

Meghan Markle “knew what she was getting into” when she married Prince Harry, according to actor Brian Cox.

Cox slammed the Duchess of Sussex, saying she joined the royal family with the expectation that she and Harry could “cut themselves off” from the Firm.

“You can’t go into a system where somebody’s already been trained to behave in a certain kind of way and then just expect them to cut themselves off,” he reportedly told Haute Living New York.

Cox added: “I mean, she knew what she was getting into.”

The actor, who has previously expressed support for the monarch’s abolition, believes Meghan had “ambition” when she married Harry.

Cox, two years before Queen Elizabeth’s death, told ES Magazine that the British royal dynasty should be disbanded after the Queen’s death to erase its “feudal hold on our culture”.
