He is 11 minutes older than Matt.
Following the band’s split Luke – who now lives in LA - has forged a successful career on screen as an actor.
His film resume includes playing villain Jared Nomak in Blade II, King Xerxes in the critically acclaimed One Night With The King and Prince Nuada in Hellboy II.
Luke is well known for being a heartthrob and for maintaining his youthful good looks.
Speaking in early 2017 about the secret behind his age-defying look, he told GMB: “It’s a positive approach and having a good heart. I think it goes a long way.”
As of 2022, Luke is believed to have a net worth of £14 million ($16m) thanks to his career in Bros and then in Band Of Thieves.
His work on TV shows, film and on various adverts has contributed to his wealth.
