Away from television screens, Gino D’Acampo shares three children with his wife of 20 years.

The 47-year-old Italian star has been accused of inappropriate behavior toward a woman he worked with between 2006 and 2011. In light of the numerous allegations made against BBC MasterChef’s presenter Gregg Wallace, the unnamed woman filed a complaint with ITV bosses last week.

It comes after reports that ITV is slowly cutting off Gino, 48, due to a wave of alleged abuse he committed. After refusing to sign a morality contract clause, he was forced out of Gordon, Gino, and Fred: Road Trip, and concerned executives have taken him on a language and behavior course.

Gino, who gained notoriety on I’m a celeb and This Morning, has been married to Jessica Stellina Morrison for 22 years. She credits her with being the catalyst for his immigration to the UK. Years later, the couple wed while they were teenagers at a Marbella restaurant.

He once said that not spending a lot of time together is the key to their union. Gino revealed: “Jessica and I don’t really spend any time together. I think that’s one of the reasons we’ve lasted for 20 years. It’s a good thing, I don’t really want to know everything my wife does because otherwise, she will be boring to me”.

He also believes Jessica’s laid-back attitude helps with their long-term romance. Speaking to Weekend magazine in 2019, Gino said: “When I met my wife I realised she was an extremely generous, clever woman. If you try to cage men, it won’t work. I have a lot of freedom.

But when they do get together, it’s pretty special, and the couple try to make the most of their date nights. Gino once said, “We have very little food on date night; we just have something quick to eat, and then we move on to other things that go on date nights”!

Gino and Jessica share three children: Luciano, 22, Rocco, 19, and Mia, 12. They own two incredible family homes, one of which is a Grade II-listed townhouse in Hertfordshire and the other of which is a holiday rental on Sardinia, an island island in Italy, for the duration of the year.

Gino has acknowledged that he is the stricter parent of the two after talking about their parenting methods in the past. He told Woman magazine: “You can see my wife look at the children, saying with her eyes ‘ Don’t even think about it, he’s not going to bend'”.

He has raised the family to enjoy all kinds of cooking and enjoys taking them to the park and the pub. Gino said: “My kids are not allowed to be fussy eaters. Parents who are stupid are the problem with fussy kids. We have no other options in our home because we run a family kitchen. I never had options, why should they”?

Gino and Gordon Ramsay became good friends through their ITV road trip show, and it’s not just the parents who fell in love. Gordon once got flustered when Tilly started becoming friendly with Gino’s eldest son, Luciano, leading to an awkward conversation.

Gino was video calling his son while they were driving through Mexico in a hilarious scene from Gordon, Gino, and Fred: Road Trip. Luciano revealed he was out for dinner with Tilly, so furious Gordon cried: “What the hell? Tilly! What are you doing? Matilda”?

In an appearance on The Jonathan Ross Show, Gordon joked that Tilly and Gino might end up having one another as father-in-law, but downplayed the possibility, saying that they were “just friends.” Because Gino was a “very handsome man,” Jonathan joked that he didn’t believe him to be Luciano’s father.

Although, when Jonathan asked if it was an “arranged marriage”, Gordon described the situation as a “f***ing nightmare”. When Tilly suddenly appears behind them while FaceTiming Luciano and we are having lunch in San Francisco, Gordon said. I think they are friends”.
