An ITV investigation found there were multiple claims of “unacceptable,” “distressing” and “horrendous” treatment while working with the TV star over more than 12 years.
Gino, 48, said he “firmly denied” all the allegations, which he called “deeply upsetting”.
And now following the news that ITV have cut all ties with the Italian star, fans have seemingly worked out his replacement on This Morning.
Gino regularly presented cookery segments on the daytime hit for more than 15 years.
Flooding social media with comments, fans are convinced Strictly professional Vito Coppola has already ‘quietly’ replaced him.
One said: “Looks like #ThisMorning have replaced Gino..”
A second commented: “Are they quietly replacing Gino with Vito? #thismorning.”
“Gino’s been replaced already then #thismorning,” said a third.
While a fourth posted: “Where’s Gino D’Acampo this morning”.
Gino’s statement in full
“I have been told by ITN news that allegations have been made about me acting inappropriately, some dating back over ten years ago.
“I have never been made aware of these matters previously and the allegations are firmly denied. I would not do anything that I thought would upset or distress anyone.
“This is simply not in my nature. I do not recognise the version of events being put to me.
“Not only have these allegations never been raised with me before, I have been repeatedly supported by executives at the highest level and was commissioned on prime-time programmes during the period in which it is now suggested I was acting inappropriately.
“I am a father, husband and have worked with well over 1,500 people on around 80 productions in my career, which I have been so proud of.
“I take such matters extremely seriously and the suggestion that I have acted in an improper way against is deeply upsetting.”
Meanwhile, Gino’s I’m A Celebrity campmate Kim Woodburn, 82, branded him “vil3”, telling The Sun he was abusive to crew on the 2009 series, which he won.
The Sun On Sunday also revealed that staff on This Morning raised concerns about Gino’s conduct 10 years ago.
Several crew and production members flagged alleged issues with bosses, including bullying and s3xually inappropriate comments.
It has also been claimed he even made vil3 comments about the show’s host Holly Willoughby to a shocked woman.
Gino has three kids with wife Jessica.
