He still has the accent. He still loves playing polo. And we think he’ll always be here for tea.
But Prince Harry now considers himself an American citizen.
In documents obtained this week by The Daily Mail – sent by Companies House to Harry’s eco-travel venture, Travalyst – Prince Harry claims his “new country/state normally resident” is now the United States of America.
It was previously registered as United Kingdom.
Harry and his wife Meghan Markle officially moved out of their UK home on June 28, 2023… three months after King Charles III evicted them from the property, known as Frogmore Cottage.
The spouses, of course, stepped down from most of their royal duties and moved to California in the spring of 2020.
Shortly afterwards, at a charity event, Harry told those present:
“The UK is my home and a place I love. This will never change.”

Harry further explained in December 2023 that he still considered the UK his “home,” but he and Markle felt “forced” to flee to the US due to security concerns.
“The UK is fundamental to my children’s heritage and a place where I want them to feel at home, as much as where they currently live in the US,” he said in a written statement read in a London court amid his legal bid to taxpayer-funded police security… which was denied.
“This cannot happen if we cannot keep them safe when they are on British soil.”
The question of Harry’s residence is of special interest today because Donald Trump said he will deport the Duke of Sussex if he is re-elected president.

The Prince, in turn, stated that he hopes to one day become an American citizen.
Perhaps. Possibly. Possibly.
“American citizenship is a thought that has crossed my mind, but it’s certainly not something that’s a huge priority for me at this point,” he told Good Morning America in February.
“It’s amazing,” Harry added of life on the West Coast. “I love every day.”

As Harry ponders some kind of return to the Royal FamilyDue to your father’s cancer diagnosis, the filing details mentioned above may make this impossible.
The Daily Mail has raised serious questions about whether he can remain a Councilor of State, one of seven members of the Royal Family who can deputize for the Monarch if he is abroad or ill.
Said Dr. Craig Prescott, an expert on constitutional law in Great Britain, last year:
“We are really in uncharted waters here: Prince Harry’s situation is not something that the law allows easily.
“The idea of the King’s second son choosing a life away from royal duties is not something the law has thought of, and I can imagine Buckingham Palace would be concerned about that.”
