Yes, he was Anglo-Welsh. He may not have lived in Wales but he did visit family there on many occasions.

Bob Hope's mother was Welsh. His father was English. I've never heard of him living in Wales, but he had family there and he was, obviously, half Welsh.

Considering that Bob Hope's parents emigrated to the USA and settled in Cleveland, Ohio when Bob was four years old he couldn't possibly have lived in Wales for very long if at all!!!!
He was born in Eltham, London and the family moved to Bristol before they emigrated so I suppose there's a chance that Bob could have crossed over into Wales a few times, but I have never heard anything that he actually lived there.
