Is she a Fake Brit? She was raised in between Argentina and Britain, has British citizenship and seems to consider herself British (just also Argentinian and, possibly, American as well).

If she is considered a Fake Brit because English isn't her first language, she was initially raised in Argentina or because her natural accent when speaking English is trans-atlantic (a mix between American and English), shouldn't she be considered a Fake American as well? She was born in the US, but that doesn't make her any more American then Emma Watson is French. I can't find any concrete evidence of whether she considers herself American though she does seem to imply that she does. However, by that logic, she also wouldn't be a Fake Brit. I personally think that, either, Fake Brit should be removed or, given that each Fake Nationality usually includes people from that country doing a different dialect from their own (a man from London doing a Black Country accent would be still considered a Fake Brit despite being British) and Anya-Taylor doesn't use her natural (English) voice when playing Brits or Americans, Fake American should be added as well.

Sorry I've done a bit of a mini-essay. I don't think this is a large issue because it isn't entirely wrong, I just think that Fake Brit on its own is somewhat misleading.
