The TV star shared he was scared he would be judged by his brother's secret life and when he appeared on MAFS, he told his wife Jay Howard as soon as he could. He told the Daily Mail: "In October 2020, my brother was pulled over on the M25 and was found with 30kilos of cocaine in his boot, which they valued at £3million.
It was a huge shock." He also noted that it was a difficult time for him personally, saying: "I was grieving for my nan and my relationship that had ended and all of a sudden, I had to grieve my brother being taken away from me." Luke and his brother are related through their mother but have different dads. In October 2020, police stopped Sam on the M25 and discovered 30 kilos of cocaine. In 2021, he was sentenced to 11 years in prison.
It was reduced to eight years following his guilty plea and he is serving his time at HM Prison Standford Hill. Luke has said his brother even watched him on Married At First Sight, revealing he and his prison mates were "hooked". He even went on to say his brother became "more popular" in prison because of Luke being on the show.
The reality TV personality shared he had no "inkling" that his brother was involved with drugs but didn't want people to "tarnish" his name once he went into the spotlight.
