Maria is an antiques dealer who will be putting her expertise to good use on the series as she shows off a number of pieces she has available at the Pastorale Antiques Centre in Lewes.
She will be hoping to impress the two buyers, Drew and Tee, with some of her treasured mpieces.
Maria confirmed the news on Instagram as she poked fun at her son’s reality TV background, joking: “Luca Isn’t the only TV star in the family.”
She added that the spot on the digital channel’s series would be her “TV debut”, which prompted Luca to fire back as he laughed that she had forgotten where she had came from.
Luca reminded his mum that she had actually made an appearance on ITV2’s Love Island as part of the meet the parents segment.
Maria spoke with her son and his partner at the time, Gemma Owen, 19, about their journey in the Love Island villa.
Luca wrote on his Instagram stories: “Cheek of my mum saying she’s making her TV debut tonight as if she didn’t fly over to Spain dressed to the nines for her first ever cameo,” as well as adding a laughing face emoji.
Brighton-born Luca found fame on last summer’s series of the show where he coupled up with daughter of football ace Michael Owen, Gemma.
Luca and Gemma came runners-up to show favourites Ekin-Su and Davide Sanclimenti.
However, the pair called it quits in November of last year after the relationship failed to stand the test of time.
Gemma announced the break-up in a statement, writing: “I wanted to let you know that Luca and I are no longer in a relationship. It wasn’t an easy decision but ultimately this is what is best for both of us right now.
“Many of you have been on this journey with us from the beginning and I want to thank you for your continued support as a new chapter starts.”
Gemma and Luca remained together throughout their whole time on Love Island but decided to not make things official until they came home.
Luca put on a very extravagant display when he asked her to be his girlfriend – as he presented her with a £6k Cartier bracelet.
