Gino D’Acampo makes statement on ITV future after ‘inappropriate behaviour’ claims

Gino D’Acampo, who has been accused of “inappropriate behavior,” has spoken out about his TV future.

After an unnamed woman accused the Italian, 48, of improper conduct over a five-year period, he was at the center of a row. Last week, the woman who allegedly worked with Gino between 2006 and 2011 filed a complaint with ITV executives. It was alleged Gino had been ‘ sidelined ‘ by the broadcaster.

The TV chef is yet to directly address the allegations, however, Gino took to Instagram today to saying he “can’t wait” for viewers to watch his ITV show with First Dates, Fred Sirieix, Emission Impossible, in December. Gino and friend and collaborator Fred worked together on the new series, which “attempts to go green” together.

The celebrity chef posted: “I can’t wait to go back on the road with my French brother @fred_sirieix… #EmissionImpossibleGDx” on December 16 and 17, sharing a montage of photos of himself and the Frenchman, including one in which Fred donnes a wrestling leotard and Gino poses in a pair of shorts and a vest.

In response to numerous reports about Gregg Wallace’s treatment of the BBC’s MasterChef presenter, an unnamed woman made the allegations against Gino public last week.

A source close to the latest complainant said: “She worked]with Gino] for five years. She has come forward in response to the Gregg Wallace scandal and his comments that his accusers are middle-class women of a certain age, according to a source in the Sun.

We have a duty of care to any complainant that comes forward, according to an ITV source. The Mirror has contacted Gino’s reps for comment.

The father-of-three, who has appeared on This Morning, was allegedly terminated from the ITV series Gordon, Gino, and Fred: Road Trip after allegedly refusing to sign a morality clause in his contract, which stipulates that parties must adhere to stringent behavioural standards.

Sources told The Sun that while on the set of his latest show with Fred Siriex, Emission Impossible, Gino was accused of flashing crew members, who were reportedly offered counselling. The source told the publication: “Filming was halted and Gino was put on a training course. In 2024, some of his humor and antics have grown increasingly objectionable.

Gino’s dating program Cooking Up Love was canceled after two episodes, and Gino has only appeared on This Morning twice this year. However, he is set to be back on screens with Family Fortunes next year, which has already been filmed.
