Gino D'Acampo 'to start new life abroad' following sexual misconduct allegations
Gino D'Acampo is reportedly set to begin a new life in Australia following accusations of sexual misconduct. Late last year, the Italian celebrity chef, 48, faced accusations of misconduct involving his former colleagues. His alleged behaviour was described as 'unacceptable' and 'distressing', and is said to have included sexualised comments and aggressive language on sets. D'Acampo has always 'firmly denied' the allegations and said they are 'deeply upsetting'. The Sun reports that the television presenter has listed his £4.2 million Hertfordshire mansion for sale and is set to make a new life Down Under, launching 'multiple projects' after being sacked from ITV. These new projects allegedly include two new restaurants and a culinary tech platform. A representative for D'Acampo told the publication: 'He loves Australia a lot — the people, culture, cleanliness and environment.' A separate source continued: 'Gino has had a fantastic career over here — and still has an incredibly loyal fanbase. 'But it's been made clear to him that TV opportunities over here are few and far between in the wake of recent allegations, and that's frustrating. 'While Gino has always denied any wrongdoing, he's a pragmatist and knows it's time for new adventures.' They added that he had been 'inundated' with work offers following a 'really successful' tour through the country. 'He spent some time in Australia a few years ago, and loved it. He still has a large social media following and plans to capitalise on that in the next stage of his career.' The Sun continued that Gino will maintain a base in the UK, but will spend a large amount of time in Australia and is looking at properties in Melbourne. It comes after D'Acampo shared his latest TV series following the controversies. He told The Mirror: 'We have a TV project on for later this year in September, I want to go all around Malta, it's a show called An Italian In Malta. 'The idea is to show everyone all over the world a bit about the country—I want to find the perfect restaurant, the perfect recipe, the perfect spot. 'I will speak to the local people [about] what they cook and how they cooked 200 years ago.' More Trending But that's not all, as D'Acampo is embarking on a career change with a mystery series that will see him act for the first time. He revealed: 'I am playing a part in a series; my part is this Italian-American mechanic that is always in trouble with the police or always in trouble with the law, and then he became a mechanic, and he's helping the main character in the show. 'This is acting now; I'm not becoming a real mechanic. I'm useless at stuff like that.' Metro has contacted representatives for Gino D'Acampo for comment Got a story?

Gino D'Acampo's TV return revealed as chef launches new series after being axed by ITV
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) GINO D'Acampo's TV return has been revealed, as the chef launches a new series after being axed by ITV. The former This Morning star had been lying low since being removed from ITV programming in February. 3 Gino D'Acampo's TV return has been revealed, as the chef launches a new series after being axed by ITV Credit: Rex 3 Gino is set for a telly return too, with a show named An Italian In Malta Credit: Rex In February, Gino was accused of sexually inappropriate behaviour over 12 years and ITV has vowed not to use him in future. The married dad of three denies the claims. In May, his restaurant chain was saved when Upmarket Leisure — the company controlling the five venues — was bought out of administration — in a £5million deal that saved 400 jobs. Now, Gino is set for a telly return too, with a show named An Italian In Malta. Gino will embark on a travelogue to the Mediterranean island, and it will air in September. Of the new show, Gino told the Mirror: 'The idea is to show everyone all over the world a bit about the country - I want to find the perfect restaurant, the perfect recipe, the perfect spot, I will speak to the local people, what they cook and how they cooked 200 years ago.' And the TV chef has another project quietly going on in the background too - an acting project in Ireland. Gino will be playing the part of a mechanic for the scripted role, and continued to tell the publication: 'I am playing a part in a series, my part is this Italian-American mechanic that is always in trouble with the police or always in trouble with the law and then he became a mechanic and he's helping the main character in the show. 'This is acting now, I'm not becoming a real mechanic, I'm useless at stuff like that.' The Sun has contacted Gino's representative for comment.

Don't get too skinny, otherwise it's like, no.' During the interview he also said: 'I'm going to tell you a secret, Italian food is like Italian men, minimum effort, maximum satisfaction.' He added during the show last Wednesday: 'Now do you understand that Nicole, or do I need to explain that?' She replied: 'I think it was very clear.' Later he also told her: 'You're too pretty for radio.' Earlier, asked if he recognised a male guest in the studio, he said: 'Do I know your mum? 'Did I take your mama out for dinner or something? I meet a lot of people and usually the ones I remember are blonde, they're tall — we do an activity together.'
