How long can a naturalized British citizen stay outside the country?

Hi, I just want to double check. I am a naturalized British citizen and moved to Canada end of 2019. I got married to a Canadian and now I am a permanent resident. I didn't travel back to the UK in these two years. Will it be a problem? Please let me know how frequently do I need to travel back to the UK to maintain my citizenship. Thanks

As a naturalised citizen you can remain outside the UK for the rest of your life without any effect on your British citizenship.
