A shocking moment from This Morning has resurfaced, showing a tense interaction between Phillip Schofield and Gino D’Acampo,

which now takes on a new context as the celebrity chef faces serious allegations of sexual harassment and inappropriate behavior.

The controversial clip, dating back to 2013, highlights a risque joke made by Gino, which led to a live on-air reprimand from Phillip.

In the footage, Gino, known for his regular cooking segments on the ITV show, is seen preparing a dish alongside Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby.

The trio is engaged in a lively conversation while Gino demonstrates his culinary skills.

However, the moment takes a turn when Gino makes an inappropriate remark about “tough meat” and “making love to your wife,” which clearly unsettles Phillip.

The exchange begins innocently enough, with Gino discussing the importance of tender meat in cooking. “We don’t want tense meat, it becomes tough meat, right?” he says, agreeing with Phillip’s earlier comment about meat. But Gino then takes things further with a remark that shocked viewers and left Phillip visibly uncomfortable. “That’s why you should never annoy your wife before you make love,” Gino adds. “You want her to be nice and soft.”

While Holly raises an eyebrow in response to the comment, she opts not to engage further and continues to focus on her cooking. Phillip, however, doesn’t let the remark slide. His expression hardens, and he turns to Gino, sternly telling him, “Now you’ve gone too far. That’s too far.” Gino, trying to downplay the comment, insists that he meant no harm, but Phillip isn’t convinced, replying firmly, “That’s a step too far.”

This moment, now almost a decade old, has taken on new significance as Gino D’Acampo faces allegations of sexual misconduct from multiple individuals who have come forward to describe experiences with the chef that they characterize as “unacceptable,” “distressing,” and “horrendous.” The claims span over 12 years, with accusations suggesting that Gino made a number of inappropriate remarks and engaged in troubling behavior both on and off set.

Gino, who has been a household name for his television appearances on shows like Family Fortunes and Gino and Fred: Emission Impossible, has vehemently denied all allegations. In a statement to ITV News, Gino addressed the accusations, stating that he had never been made aware of any complaints until recently. He also expressed disbelief at the claims, emphasizing that he would never intentionally upset anyone. “I have never been made aware of these matters previously and the allegations are firmly denied,” Gino asserted. “I would not do anything that I thought would upset or distress anyone. This is simply not in my nature.”

The chef went on to stress that he had been repeatedly supported by executives and producers throughout his career, despite the allegations now being brought to light. “I have worked with well over 1,500 people on around 80 productions in my career, which I have been so proud of,” he added. “Not only have these allegations never been raised with me before, I have been repeatedly supported by executives at the highest level and was commissioned on prime-time programmes during the period in which it is now suggested I was acting inappropriately.”

However, the accusations continue to surface, with one woman, referred to as Hannah to protect her identity, alleging that she was subjected to vulgar comments by Gino in 2011. According to reports, many individuals who have spoken out about their experiences working with Gino were afraid of the potential consequences of doing so, fearing backlash or retaliation for voicing their concerns.

As Gino faces mounting allegations, the controversy surrounding his past behavior casts a shadow over his long-running career in television. While he has denied all claims of misconduct, the resurgence of the This Morning clip, coupled with the recent revelations, has brought renewed attention to the allegations against the chef. Gino’s defense of his actions may not be enough to quell the growing scrutiny surrounding his past, especially as more individuals come forward to share their experiences.

The situation remains fluid, with investigations into Gino’s alleged behavior ongoing. As the public waits for further developments, the resurfaced 2013 This Morning clip serves as a stark reminder of how past actions can resurface and take on new significance in light of recent events.
