    I really think his mom lied about his dad’s identity lol. It is true that some (not all, just some) Italins are dark but definitely not that dark. He’s cute, by the way.
    Is he considered white in the UK? I think he’s usually cast to play White roles.

    He looks like he could be Indian but I have several Italian friends who are Sicilian and they look just like this, everyone thinks they’re Hispanic or Indian. Also places like Naples and Sicily have heavy North African and Arab influence so that might be it.

    Why do everyone keep insisting he looks like he has Indian blood? Have you seen Pia Toscano? She’s fully Italian and looks like she has Indian blood, but she doesn’t. In fact, if you look up on the history of Italians, the native Italians actually looked a lot like Luke and Pia.

    Never in my life have I seen an Italian that looked Indian. His mother should tell him that his “father” is not really his father.
