For both countries, citizenship is not automatic. The American can petition for the British spouse, who will then get a green card and later can apply for citizenship if he/she wants to; it works the same the other way, as well.
And neither country has any laws against dual citizenship. Nor do you lose citizenship on your 18th birthday. |

If someone marries a Citizen from another Country then
sometimes the spouse loses Citizenship from their original
Country..especially it they move there.However it is not
impossible for a person to have dual Citizenship.Feel
Free to Consult the State Department for complete awnsers
on Dual Citizenship and how they might apply to your
question. |

Marriage does not make one a citizen in the United States. You will have to go thru citizenship classes and pass tests, etc. |

It would make it possible to go through the citizenship process in either country; however, the US and the UK have different rules about dual citizenship. I hold American citizenship, and until age 18 also held British citizenship which is apparently still valid when I am in the UK but is not recognized within the US, it became invalid in the US on my 18th birthday. Of course, I haven't checked up on this since the early 90s, not having had the cash to go back since then, so I may be a little out of date on this. You might check with the British Embassy, they probably have a very clear explanation of all these quirks for you, and in most cases are very happy to help you sort through everything. |
