Boris Johnson was born in New York City, but has lived in the UK since he was 5 years old.
Boris Johnson is a lot of things: a politician, a journalist, an author and a prime minister. He’s also the son of an art historian and the great-grandson of Ali Kemal Bey, who was once the Ottoman Empire’s Interior Minister. But where did Boris Johnson grow up? How did he get his start in politics? And what is his net worth?
Where is Boris Johnson from?
The British politician and journalist was born on June 19th, 1964 in New York City. His father Stanley worked for The Times as a correspondent at the time and was based in Washington D.C., while his mother Charlotte had just graduated from Oxford University with a degree in art history. While Charlotte had always wanted to live abroad and Stanley wanted to work overseas, neither of them expected that they would be moving back to England so soon after their son’s birth.
