She naturally has an English accent, she was born in the US but was raised in London. I believe she puts an American accent on, rather than the other way round...

I know, I was joking. She is probably genuinely bi-dialectal as she moved at the age when the brain still has enough plasticity to learn a new accent, without loosing the original one. There's a small gap of about three years just before puberty where it is possible, a few years after puberty and your original accent becomes 'cemented' (though you can still pick up elements of a new one) too young and you will completely loose your original accent.
I think he was born in the US and raised largely in Australia, if I remember correctly. So he's Australian-American or vice versa?
But thanks for catching that!
