Luke Gulbranson hasn't had the easiest time on the current season of Summer House, and the fans are curious to learn more about him. Newcomer Ciara Miller left Luke in the friend zone after he broke Hannah Berner's heart for the last time. As a result of making the girls upset, he sparked up an in-house showdown with Kyle Cooke and Carl Radke.
Outside of his Summer House romances and fights, Luke has made a career for himself as a jack of all trades. The Northern Minnesota native has spent the last 15 years living in NYC as an artist and craftsman. His love for nature and time alone in the woods has helped some of his female castmates warm up to him. When he isn't charming the ladies on the show, Luke is busy earning a living as a model, actor, and youth hockey coach. His most recent artistic venture was the launch of his rustic renaissance brand R_Co. The company sells handmade jewelry, merch, and fragrances.
At the age of 37, Luke Gulbranson's work in entertainment and design has earned him a net worth of around $600,000 (via The Cinemaholic), making him one of the richest people in the Summer House cast. Luke's life as an entertainer has landed him appearances in films like By My Hand and on TV shows including The Flight Attendant and Last Week Tonight with John Oliver. He shows off his craftsmanship through his R_Co. brand. In addition to selling bracelets and rings that he makes by hand, the line also includes sweatshirts, hats, and t-shirts with the brand's logo. The 6'1" Bravo star also adds his own personal touch to the scented candles and fragrances that his line includes.
Most recently, Luke was blasted over a hoodie he released that read, "I don't like you." The line was the same words Luke shouted at Kyle during their blowup. While the moment was a popular one on the show, fans weren't feeling how lackluster the hoodie appeared as well as its $55 price tag. "$55 for a hoodie," asked one follower, while another suggested he get some help from housemate and graphic designer Amanda Batula. Whether fans support Luke's creativity or not, he's still making a living out of it.
Overall, Luke always finds ways to incorporate his small-town upbringing into his life in NYC. "Another great day at @nemacolin #cigarbar #nemacolin #nightcap," he captioned an Instagram picture of himself seated in a chair while holding a cigar and a glass of whisky. "Great day shooting skeet with @carlradke," he captioned a video of him shooting off into the open woods. It was also nice to see him and Carl enjoying some time together after they were close to throwing blows at each other on Summer House. Following their fight, Carl apologized and admitted he was still healing from the recent passing of his brother.
