Gino D’Acampo breaks silence on social media after facing ‘misconduct’ allegations
ITV have pulled Gino D’Acampo’s programmes while they investigate allegations of inappropriate behaviour.
Gino D’Acampo has broken his silence on social media as he shared a video of himself meeting fans at a recent book signing in ASDA.
The TV chef is currently being investigated by ITV over dozens of allegations which span 12 years and accuse him of “sexually inappropriate” behaviour. He has firmly denied all allegations made against him, calling them “deepy upsetting”.
The minute-long clip was filmed in November 2024 when he was promoting Gino’s Air Fryer Cookbook and shows a line of people waiting to get their books signed by him as he embraces fans at the top of the queue.
Gino shared the video on his Instagram page late on Saturday night with the caption: “Always fantastic to meet my fans, you guys are just awesome. Thank you ASDA for having us…”
The star was flooded with messages of support from his followers as he shared the heartwarming video.

Gino’s post comes after his ITV shows have been yanked off air by bosses as he faces allegations of “sexually inappropriate behaviour” from dozens of individuals.
ITV has cut all ties with D’Acampo, 48, after “over 40 people” have come forward following an ITV News investigation.
This includes axing the new series of Family Fortunes in light of the allegations, as well as pulling his current shows from the schedule.
Two episodes of Secrets of the South, which were due to air between 6pm and 7pm, are no longer in the ITVBe schedule.
The episodes are not scheduled for broadcast and ITV have no further plans to work with Gino, ITV News has reported.

In a statement responding to these allegation, D’Acampo said he had “never been made aware of these matters previously and the allegations are firmly denied”.
He added: “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.”
