Prince Harry has officially relinquished his British residency, with the United States becoming his primary residence, as per documents from Page Six. The Duke of Sussex has listed the US as his “new country/state usually resident,” marking a significant change from his previous ties to the UK.
The residency shift was confirmed in a document filed by Companies House for Harry’s eco-travel venture, Travalyst, on June 29, 2023, following the couple’s departure from their UK home, Frogmore Cottage, the previous day. This legal move comes amidst ongoing discussions about the couple’s status within the royal family and their future plans.
The impact of renouncing his British residency on Harry’s royal titles remains uncertain, with speculation that he may address this issue during an upcoming visit to London. Harry has expressed mixed feelings about his connection to the UK, emphasizing its significance as his “home” but citing safety concerns that led to their move to the US.
The Duke of Sussex has also expressed interest in obtaining American citizenship, albeit as a secondary priority. However, his past admissions of drug use, detailed in his memoir ‘Spare,’ raise questions about the ease of his immigration process. While some legal experts suggest minimal impact unless he faces further legal issues, concerns linger regarding potential repercussions, including the need to renounce his royal titles to fulfill US citizenship requirements.
