Who is Martin M and his son Luke? Meet My Mum, Your Dad cast
The new arrivals will join the show this week.
My Mum, Your Dad continues on ITV1, with the cast being joined by some new singles and their children.
One of those singles is 53-year-old property developer Martin M, who is from Derby, but currently resides in Ibiza with his 18-year-old son Luke.
Luke nominated his dad for the show and advised him to "be yourself".
However, Martin's "Peter Pan" syndrome might be getting in the way of him settling down.
Ahead of his My Mum, Your Dad debut, Martin said: "I tend to go for powerful, intelligent, driven women, which usually means we end up competing with each other.

"I have difficulty committing, I still want to be that Peter Pan. Commitment-phobe? Maybe so. I don’t want to close any doors."

Who is Martin M?
Age: 53
Location: Derby, lives in Ibiza
Job: Property developer
Martin M is a property developer who currently lives in Ibiza.
Describing himself, he said: "Tall - I’m 6ft 7 - handsome, intelligent, single. I’m business-minded, I try and lead a good life, but also with responsibility. I take my fatherly duties very seriously."
In terms of what excites him about joining My Mum, Your Dad, he said: "I’ve always struggled meeting people who are on my wavelength. So, I thought, 'If they’re going to line up several single ladies, I’m in.' What’s not to like?"
As for what makes him nervous, he added: "Being offline. I run a business, I’m always on the phone, so that will be unusual."
Martin is hoping to find someone "intelligent, confident, driven, funny, laidback".
He said: "I don’t think me meeting the female version of me would go very well. Someone who can be supportive. Not too overly competitive. Just someone nice and normal and laidback."
Who is Luke?
Age: 18
Location: Ibiza
Job: Bartender
Luke is an 18-year-old bartender from Ibiza and the son of Martin M.
He is hoping for his father to find love on the show and believes he'll be a great partner.
Asked how he'd describe his father, Luke said: "Loving, caring, busy, loves the attention, loves to go out and do stuff.
"He loves Ibiza! He loves meeting new people. He’s always interested in you and, if there’s a connection there, always has lots of questions. He loves to explore and go on holiday. He gets very emotionally attached."
So, who what kind of woman would make the perfect partner for his dad?
"Someone career-focused and likes to do a bit of partying - a bit of balance. We live in Ibiza, everything’s different to the UK, so they need to be ready for that sort of lifestyle as well," Luke said.
My Mum, Your Dad airs Monday to Friday at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX. The series will run on consecutive weeknights for two weeks.
