Personal life

She was born in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. When she was seventeen she wanted to go to the Academie voor Expressie.

Five years later she was admitted and she is now an official drama teacher.

In an interview with the Dutch Psychology Magazine, Luca disclosed that her father engaged in sexual activities with younger men during her youth. She added that this had strained her relationship with her father.
