Gino D'Acampo accused of intimidating and inappropriate sexual behaviour
An ITV News investigation into the This Morning star reported dozens of people came forward with allegations against D'Acampo, describing his behaviour while working with him as "unacceptable", "distressing" and "horrendous".
D'Acampo responded to the ITV News investigation, stating that he "firmly denied" the allegations, additionally adding that they were "deeply upsetting".
One individual recalled a comment from 2011, when she was working on a magazine shoot with D'Acampo, who she claims told her he wanted to perform a sexual act on her.
Another woman who came forward shared an incident from a location shoot with the celebrity chef who "opened the door in his boxer shorts" and made references to the size of his genitals, before "flicking it" while in the presence of others.
In a statement issued by Gino D'Acampo's legal team, they said: "Mr D'Acampo categorically denies these allegations of inappropriate sexual behaviour."
"To his knowledge no such allegations have been made against him in relation to his time on Gino's Italian Express and this is the first time, six years later, he has been informed of these alleged incidents, and he does not accept them, not least because some of this is considered by Mr D'Acampo to be a fabricated work of fiction."
Allegations against the star span over a decade, with ITV News reporting that one unidentified production company was aware of multiple concerns raised by crew members - but continued to work with D'Acampo on further TV projects.
Four production companies have since issued statements in light of the investigation, outlining their duty of care practices.
Multistory Media stated that they ceased working with D'Acampo six years ago, while Studio Ramsay has not worked on a series with the star since 2022.

AEW Veteran Reportedly Sidelined With Serious Injury
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The fairytale TNT Championship reign of Dustin Rhodes has come to a tragic and premature end. A new report has confirmed that the wrestling veteran is set to undergo double knee surgery and will be out of action until at least 2026. This news comes just days after Rhodes lost the championship to Kyle Fletcher in a brutal street fight on AEW Collision. His reign, which began with an emotional victory at All In: Texas, has been cut short after just one successful defense. A Brutal End To A Fairytale Reign On the July 26th episode of AEW Collision, Dustin Rhodes defended his TNT Title against Kyle Fletcher of the Don Callis Family. During the violent street fight, Fletcher hit Rhodes in the head with a screwdriver before delivering a Brainbuster to capture the championship. After the match, Fletcher continued the assault, targeting Rhodes' knee. The segment ended with the former champion being taken away on a stretcher. Rhodes later confirmed on social media that he would need a "very invasive major surgery" and shut down any speculation that the injury was just a storyline. We couldn't be more proud of you, @DustinRhodes. Get well soon! — All Elite Wrestling (@AEW) August 3, 2025 The "Natural": A Legendary Career Dustin Rhodes has had one of the most unique and enduring careers in wrestling history. He is most famously known for his revolutionary "Goldust" character in WWE during the Attitude Era. The bizarre, androgynous, and controversial gimmick became iconic, and Dustin's incredible talent as a performer made it one of the most memorable characters of all time. All Elite Wrestling ALL IN at Wembley Stadium in London on August 27, 2023. All Elite Wrestling ALL IN at Wembley Stadium in London on August 27, 2023. Courtesy of AEW More news: WWE Superstar Announces Retirement Match Fightful Select has revealed more details, confirming that Rhodes is dealing with a knee injury and will undergo double knee surgery. He'll be out of action for an extended period, with no return expected before 2026. After leaving WWE, he experienced a massive career renaissance in AEW. His bloody and emotional match against his brother, Cody Rhodes, at the first Double or Nothing pay-per-view in 2019 is considered an all-time classic. The match proved that even after three decades in the business, "The Natural" could still perform at an elite level. An Emotional Championship Victory His long journey culminated last month at the All In: Texas pay-per-view at Globe Life Field. In an emotional and surprising moment, Dustin Rhodes won a multi-man match to capture the TNT Championship, his first major singles title in AEW. The fairytale victory was seen as a well-deserved reward for a lifetime of dedication to the business. Unfortunately, that dream run was cut tragically short by this legitimate injury. The wrestling world now wishes the legendary "Natural" a full and speedy recovery. More WWE News: For more on WWE, head to Newsweek Sports.
