This is even more complicated than it appears because of jus sanguine and immigration.
If you're born in France, you're not an automatic French citizen unless you're born to a French national. You get the nationality of your parent(s), which might make UK-entry complicated. Only once you're 13 and have lived in France can you apply for French citizenship[1], and even that can take 1-4 years [2].
