Dua Lipa receives Kosovo citizenship. President Osmani: "Welcome home."

"Every time I return to Kosovo, I always feel like I'm home," the singer said in a statement. "Receiving citizenship from President Osmani is a huge honor and makes me feel like my two souls are now one. It completes the duality I've always had inside. I love this country and this means so much to me and my family." "Welcome home, Dua!" Osmani said in an official post on X. "Dua and Kosovo have always been inseparable," the statement continued. "From the world's biggest stages to the hearts of millions, she has carried our story forward with strength, pride, and grace. She has pushed boundaries, made history, and reminded the world that greatness begins with knowing who you are and where you come from." "Our gratitude is endless for everything Dua has done and continues to do for Kosovo." Born in London to Kosovo Albanian parents, Dua Lipa has always cultivated her roots and supported Kosovar charities and causes. Her father, musician Dukagjin Lipa, was also present at the ceremony. In addition to British citizenship, Lipa also holds Albanian citizenship, which was granted in November 2022.
