DATING Naked star Luke Worley suffered an awkward moment when he met his first potential match – and mistook her for his ex.
The former Married At First Sight UK star, 33, has signed up for the Paramount+ show fronted by Rylan Clark.
Unlike his previous show, Luke is seen dating completely in the buff and one clip showed him meeting Kelsey Jenner on the beach for a couples’ massage.
But, speaking off camera, Luke said: “I realised it wasn’t my ex!”
He then asked Kelsey: “Are you nervous? I’m nervous.”
She replied: “I’ve been freaking out the whole time. But I feel better now that I’ve seen you.”
Despite Luke then making a surprise remark about his manhood, Kelsey said in a VT: “Based on first impressions, his smile was the first thing that caught my eye. He’s got lovely teeth and he’s got really nice blue eyes.”
Luke shot to fame on the 2023 series of MAFS UK, during which he tied the knot with Jay Howard.
But he was booted off the show after punching co-star Jordan Gayle in a tense on-screen bust-up.
Shortly after leaving the experiment, Luke and Jay’s romance fizzled out.
Jay later opened up to The Sun about their split – insisting he stopped making the effort to work on their relationship.
She said: “When we left the experiment we went on holiday, everything was good and we were really strong but then things changed when we came home.
“He went back to Essex and I came back to Accrington. I felt like he changed and he couldn’t be bothered to put in the effort.”
Jay added: “There were times in the beginning that I did think he was in it more for fame than love but I do think he was on the show for genuine reasons.”
