High Wycombe-born James Corden has hinted he will “quit” America after becoming homesick, according to national reports.
The Gavin & Stacey star hosts The Late Late Show in the US and has said ending the show will “always be a bigger family decision than a professional one”, The Sun reported.
He said: “It will be about people at home who we miss very, very much, who we are homesick for.

“I also feel like my wife and I have three young children, and they are three young grandchildren that we’ve taken away from people.
“This probably feels particularly magnified now during the pandemic, but I have an overwhelming feeling that our family has walked to the beat of my drum for a very long time.”
The star, who currently lives in Los Angeles, was brought up in Hazlemere and went to Park Middle School and Holmer Green Upper School, as well as Jackie Palmer Stage School in Bridge Street.
His parents still live in Hazlemere.
He moved to America when his London stage play, One Man Two Guvnors, was transferred to Broadway in 2012.
Whether he would live in High Wycombe if he does move back remains to be seen – but he did put his hometown on the map several times after tweeting about it in 2017 and telling the BFP he would “love” to bring Carpool Karaoke to the town.
Alongside Little Mix star Leigh-Anne Pinnock, James is considered to be one of the biggest names to come from High Wycombe.
