GINO D'Acampo has been caught in a new harassment storm amid claims he "thrust his crotch" at a female staffer. Sources on travel show Gordon, Gino & Fred: Road Trip allege Gino quizzed a producer about her sex life. He also allegedly thrusted his crotch at another female staffer on the show, which was produced by Gordon Ramsay's firm Studio Ramsay.
An insider claimed Gino was difficult to work with and upset staff by flashing them, the Mail reports. ITV chiefs summoned Gino's manager to a meeting in 2021 over the allegations. But Gino was allowed to appear in another series of the show alongside Ramsay and Fred Sirieix.
Gino allegedly faced "several complaints" before he was quietly dropped from the show last year. A source told the Mail: "It looks more and more as if there has been a cover-up by ITV and the production company. "ITV did step in and they had a meeting with Gino's former manager where allegations of inappropriate behaviour were discussed.".
It is reported ITV still plans to screen a new series of Family Fortunes which Gino recorded earlier this year. Gino previously claimed he quit because he did not want "stressful" contract talks to ruin his friendships with Ramsay and Sirieix. But it is claimed Gino faced the axe after allegedly refusing to sign a "morality clause" in his contract.
