Wright considered the lifestyle differences between the two, noting that "a freedom of self here" in England as opposed to the United States, where "everything's rush, competition and speed." "America is a shitshow. ... I love being in this country. There's a freedom of self here. People are so kind," she said. "They're living. They're not in the car in traffic, panicked on a phone call, eating a sandwich. That's most of America. Everything's rush, competition and speed."

"It's very evident when you're in a room and you feel the judgment or the praise of someone who's more elevated," she added. "I'm trying to figure it out. Why are you guys so obsessed with who went to this boarding school or this university? Who gives a shit?" Wright is not the first Hollywood star to move out of the United States in recent years. In March, following President Donald Trump's return to office, Rosie O'Donnell moved to Ireland and confirmed she was actively seeking citizenship. "The people here are so loving, kind and welcoming. I'm very grateful," she said at the time. Mark Hamill recently also told The Times he nearly left the U.S. following Trump's re-election, but his wife convinced him not to exit the country after he proposed moving to London or Ireland. "She's very clever," he said. "She didn't respond right away, but a week later she said, 'I'm surprised you would allow him to force you out of your own country.' That son of a bitch, I thought. I'm not leaving."
