‘I came to Hollywood when I was 20, drove in my car’ he told the host, 54. ‘I’ve been living here since 1985.’

Kimmel then pulled out citizenship paperwork from under his desk, and joked he would be willing to marry Reeves to speed up the process.

‘But you’re married,’ The Matrix actor questioned.

Kimmel responded: ‘I know, but I told her that we might have to make some amendments to our constitution.’
