Late-night television host Jimmy Kimmel has obtained Italian citizenship, citing the presidency of Donald Trump as the primary reason for his decision. Kimmel, a vocal critic of Trump, revealed that he pursued Italian citizenship because the situation in the United States under Trump's leadership is "so much worse" than he initially anticipated. He made this disclosure during an appearance on comedian Sarah Silverman's podcast. Kimmel secured the citizenship through his maternal grandmother, allowing him a potential pathway to relocate to Europe amid political tensions in the U.S. This move aligns with a broader trend of some American celebrities considering or seeking citizenship abroad in response to the Trump administration's policies and political climate. Kimmel, 57, has suggested that he may move to Italy, reflecting his dissatisfaction with the current U.S. presidency.
