Prince Harry may still consider the UK his home, but he is open to the idea of becoming a US citizen.

The Duke of Sussex, who moved to California in 2020 with wife Meghan Markle after they quit working for the royal family, told “Good Morning America” Friday he “has considered” getting American citizenship.

When asked why he has not done so yet, Harry responded, “I have no idea. I’m here standing next to these guys,” referencing the preparations that are underway for the 2025 Invictus Games.

He then added, “The American citizenship is a thought that has crossed my mind but is certainly not something that is a high priority for me right now.”

Harry, who was born in Britain, was also hesitant to say he “feels” American, explaining, “I don’t know how I feel.”

However, the “Spare” author said he is certainly grateful for his life on the West Coast, adding, “It’s amazing. I love every single day.”

The glowing remarks of his time in the US comes just two months after Harry claimed during a trial abroad that he was “forced” to leave the UK.

“The UK is my home,” he reportedly said in a statement read in a London court on Dec. 7 amid his then-legal bid for taxpayer-funded police security.
