Who’s Alex Sumner?
Since Luke’s success at the world darts championship, where he became the youngest finalist at 16, Alex has received numerous messages comparing him to the young dart player.
Alex, a heavy-set individual, has become unexpectedly popular, attracting attention on the streets and gaining interest from women, along with making some extra income.
Embracing the trend of “big guys” being in vogue in 2024, Alex humorously mentions that he no longer feels the need to slim down for a summer body, even canceling his gym membership.
Although he confesses to being mediocre at darts, he contemplates improving his skills given the newfound connection to Luke’s image. Alex’s introduction to Luke’s existence occurred when a friend sent him a photo of the darts prodigy in December, declaring the striking resemblance.
Sumner Joined Lookalike Agency
Encouraged by friends tagging him in an appeal by the Lookalikes Agency, 35 year old Alex decided to join, leading to his current popularity.
The Lookalikes Agency, renowned for its appearances on Channel 4 and Netflix, attests to Alex’s impressive resemblance to Luke, describing him as in demand for various promotional events, pub and club openings, and even television and film appearances.
Lookalikes, according to the agency, can earn significant fees for their appearances at corporate events and other engagements. Meanwhile, in other news, Luke Littler, the 16-year-old darts sensation, fulfills a dream by visiting Old Trafford and meeting iconic figures like Sir Alex Ferguson and Bruno Fernandes.
As a devoted Manchester United supporter, Luke enjoyed a special tour of the renowned stadium as part of his Christmas present in 2023. The visit included an A-list celebrity experience, with Luke being interviewed alongside former United defender Jaap Stam during a thrilling 2-2 draw with Tottenham.
Despite the team’s inability to secure a victory on that occasion, Luke shared his excitement about the “Super Sunday at the Theatre of Dreams” on Instagram.
