Wikipedia says he grew up in Maitland, but was born in Huddersfield. His father, grandfather and great-grandfather all played RL in NSW, so I'm guessing he's pretty Australian.

Could well have been born in Huddersfield. Rugby League Project (a great resource by the way) says his Dad, David King, played for the Huddersfield between ‘97-‘99 and finished up playing a solitary game for Hunslet in the 2000 Challenge Cup.

Being born in England does not automatically make someone British, one of the parents needs to be British, Irish or an EU citizen to qualify. So yes, RLIF rules mean he would be eligible to play for England by right of birth, however Home Office rules mean he is unlikely to be a British citizen and therefore not entitled to a UK passport.
