The Love Island stars – who appeared in the 2020 winter series and series five respectively – are thought to have been messaging each other during the coronavirus lockdown, and have since hooked up.
A source told The Sun Online:
‘They were messaging each other over Instagram during lockdown and as the rules relaxed their romance blossomed!’
Luke is said to have found his “dream woman” in Lucie.
The source added:
‘Luke wasn’t single for long after he split with his ex Demi and Lucie is his dream woman – he can’t believe his luck’.

The 25-year-old heating engineer split from his villa bombshell Demi Jones in May after finishing third on the first-ever winter edition.
Demi, 21, called time on their romance because there “wasn’t a lot of effort made with communication” when lockdown kicked in.
She recently admitted:
‘We’ve completely called it off now, I think it was brought about more from his behalf than mine, but we’re mutual and friendly.
‘With lockdown, it drove us apart and we live so far away from each other. I feel like there wasn’t a lot of effort made with communication, so we drifted as a result. It’s a shame and bad timing’.
Lucie sparked a romance with fellow Islander Joe Garratt during their time on series five, but it was cut short when Joe was voted out of the villa.
They soon rekindled after the show wrapped only to split four months later after “growing apart” from each other.
An insider revealed at the time:
‘Joe and Lucie have decided to end things between them.
‘They’ve been so busy with work lately that it’s made it difficult for them to find time to see each other. They just grew apart’.
