Yes the wretched Italian chef - not giving his name credence. https://www.itv.com/watch/news/the-latest-headlines-multiple-claims-of-inappropriate-behaviour-against-gino-dacampo/5wr9dh3

Hiding in plain sight.

There are others, I switch over on another popular "star" because of what he did to me and others when we were young.

AIBU to find this exhausting

Won't watch him after seeing him ask a female celebrity guest if she liked anal on celebrity juice. She looked so uncomfortable and he made my skin crawl.

Another day, another creep.

It is worrying how many there are out there but I'm glad they are being exposed.

I knew he burgled Paul Young's house. I didn’t know till PP said he stole recordings of his wife's voice

i stopped watching him after I found out he'd burgled sometimes house, I’ve had it happen to me and it was absolutely awful. If people who put him on tv knew about the recordings stolen then they should be named and shamed

I did. Seventeen year olds in pubs not entirely believed despite compelling evidence. Just trying to answer but really don't want to engage on this element of the post

Sorry but it was you that bought it to the table

I worked with Gino .

He is arrogant , misogynistic, lazy , and unreliable .

protected for years by the fact that he drew ratings.

He made some lewd comments.

I think we need to be really careful with the term "abuse". There are plenty of cases involving celebrities where the word applies, but if we start using it willy nilly, it will lose its very serious meaning.

He made some lewd comments.

So thats sexual harassment according to ACAS - which has a very serious meaning.

Not that MW is an abuser! Just saying, people forget and move on

AngryBird6122 · 06/02/2025 21:25

remember Mark Wright on Towie? He was AWFUL to LG and hes a household name now. They just do what they want

For once I’m not surprised

Yep. This is entirely unsurprising. Major creepy fuck vibes.

DiCampo's son was in a relationship with GR's daughter. Not Gino himself.

He was seen teasing GR about it on that programme where they drove a camper fan around Europe.

Ah ok- thank you- I don’t know how I got that so confused!

deste · 06/02/2025 20:59

When Gregg Wallace was outed the first thing I said was that Gino should look out.
He hasnt been on this morning for quite a while.

BriceNobeslovesMurielHeslop · 06/02/2025 20:31

I’m sure I read in a gossip email or blind items that there was rumours regarding Gino DiCampo’s relationship with Gordon Ramsey’s daughter Tilly. Not I can remember the source though.

Cosyvibes · 06/02/2025 20:47

This doesn't surprise me at all. I've always thought he's a slimy nasty perv! Like pp said total fake! His cancellation has been a long time coming.

AnAlpacaForChristmasPleaseSanta · 06/02/2025 20:02

And Holly and Phil falling about fake laughing like it was the funniest thing they'd ever heard. 🙄.

Show quote history

That TV era is going to be looked back on as similar to the Saville days.

Oldglasses · 06/02/2025 20:43

Not surprised, he's vile.

LizzieSiddal · 06/02/2025 20:42

And you can bet 100% that the folks at ITV know he’s a sex pest. (Or worse, sorry haven’t read the link as I’m fed up of reading about women getting abused and those in positions of power doing fuck all about it).
When is someone going to get the sack for covering up for these despicable men. Same for the BBC with Greg Wallace, the fat bloke from sStrictly and Russel Brand (to name only three of the many)

delvan · 06/02/2025 20:34

At this stage it might be easier to name the "celebrity" men who are NOT like this. Smaller list I reckon.

TooBored1 · 06/02/2025 20:33

HoraceCope · 06/02/2025 18:47

this is click bait
why on earth didnt you put his name

His name is in the link

Odious little bastard

mumofoneAlonebutokay · 06/02/2025 18:51

This doesn't even surprise me tbh

He already has a criminal conviction, no? What's a little misogyny to boot

He's funny at times but seems like he has small man syndrome.

When I watched Gordon gino and Fred, it seemed to me that Gordon was careful around him, something in the way he'd look at him. Defo me overthinking there but, not surprised

I’ve just been saying the same thing!

@Pebbles16

If you have been abused by anyone, you have to report it to the police

Don't be sat there hinting there's more out there, OUT them

Paul Young is a far nicer person than I could ever be.
Campo’s criminal behaviour , absolutely unforgivable. And after that ITV gave him a job. FML.
