Shocking footage has resurfaced that showed Gino D’Acampo appearing nak3d on This Morning, with just an apron and a ‘willy warmer’ to keep his modesty.

The Italian celebrity chef, 48, has been rocked by multiple allegations of s3xually inappropriate and intimidating behaviour over a 12-year period – claims which he denies.

Amid the ITV News investigation, a clip from the programme has re-emerged, showing Gino stark nak3d cooking gammon for then-hosts Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield.

Gino appeared on the show in undress after he rashly promised to host one of his cookery segments in the nude if the show won a National Television Award in 2011.

But as he started cooking his dish, he whipped his apron off and revealed that ITV fans sent in handmade knitted ‘willy warmers’ which he was wearing to protect his ‘meat and two veg’.

But the celebrity chef got bothered with the wool and soon whipped them off too – one was knitted in the colours of the Italian flag.

Phillip shook his head in disbelief and said: ‘Never in my life would I have believed we would do this.’

But Holly managed to keep her cool and asked Gino whether or not the meat used in the dish should be smoked or plain.

Holly didn’t know where to look when she joined Gino behind the counter to mash up some peas with mascarpone.

And even Phillip had to go behind and avert his eyes when he took some savoury potatoes out of the oven.

With the meal finished Phillip warned the still nude chef: ‘For heaven’s sake, don’t bow!’

He added: ‘Well, I think that was all really rather dignified, don’t you? I think we got away with that.’

The episode came the morning after This Morning won Best Magazine Show at the National Television Award in 2011.

And the unearthed clip comes just hours after the chef hit with more claims of inappropriate and intimidating behaviour as 40 people have now come forward in total.

ITV News said on Friday it has now spoken to ‘over 40 people’ during its investigation, all of whom had either seen or experienced alleged inappropriate or intimidating behaviour by the celebrity chef.

D’Acampo’s TV shows have been removed from the ITV schedule because of the claims.

The star has denied all allegations against him, saying he finds them deeply distressing.

According to ITV News, at least one production company was aware of repeated complaints from staff members about Gino’s behaviour – yet continued to work with him on further TV projects.

On Friday, ITV pulled all of Gino’s shows from its upcoming schedules, MailOnline revealed.

One woman, given the pseudonym Hannah, described a disturbing moment during a magazine shoot in 2011.

She claims that, in front of an entire crew, Gino made an explicit s3xual comment, telling her he would ‘like to turn me over and f*** me up the a*** against the kitchen counter,’ leaving her humiliated.

‘I remember a ripple of laughter,’ she recalled, while others ‘looked nervously into their cups of tea’.

Hannah said the incident left her feeling ‘horror’ and ‘shock’ but admitted she was not surprised no one intervened.

Gino has firmly denied all allegations, calling them ‘deeply upsetting’.

His legal team said: ‘This allegation from almost 15 years ago has never, until now via a media request, been raised or put to Mr D’Acampo. He does not recall it, nor accept that it happened.’

Another woman, given the pseudonym Natalie, recounted an unsettling experience while briefing Gino for a location shoot.

‘He opened the door in his boxer shorts, nothing else,’ she claimed.

‘Then he jumped on the bed, put his leg up and made a crude reference to his private parts, joking about their size.’

Natalie described feeling ‘disgusted’ and accused the TV chef of using his position to behave inappropriately.

Gino’s legal team strongly refuted this version of events, stating: ‘To his knowledge, no such allegations have been made against him in relation to ‘Gino’s Italian Express’.

‘This is the first time – six years later – that he has been informed of these alleged incidents, which he categorically denies.’

In yet another claim, a former colleague alleged that in 2019, Gino aggressively confronted a young crew member over an ice cream.

According to ITV News, at least one production company was aware of repeated complaints from staff members about Gino’s behaviour – yet continued to work with him

‘I was present when Gino said to the runner, ‘If you don’t get me a Cornetto, I will f*** your girlfriend,’ the woman told ITV News.

Another crew member who witnessed the incident said the remark had ‘stuck in my head for years’.

‘He was using his power to bully and intimidate us,’ she said. ‘For what? A cookery programme.’

Gino’s representatives responded, saying he was ‘mortified’ by the accusation and ‘does not recall this incident at all’.

A separate claim relates to the filming of Gordon, Gino and Fred’s Road Trip in 2018.

A woman, referred to as Lena, recalled: ‘Without saying hello or good morning, he just loudly announced he felt like f****** that morning.’

Another crew member claimed Gino made a crude comment about a female colleague’s chest, allegedly saying:

‘Shouldn’t we be talking about her t**? They’re perfect, like a mouthful.’

It has since emerged that Objective Media Group, the production company behind Gordon, Gino and Fred, was aware of complaints about Gino as early as 2018.

One woman who worked on Gino’s Italian Express told ITV News: ‘His ‘cheeky chappy’ persona allows him to hide in plain sight. If I see him on TV, I have to leave the room.’

Gino, who has built a multi-million-pound career on his larger-than-life personality, has denied all allegations against him.

His legal team said: ‘No-one has ever made these complaints directly to Mr D’Acampo. He does not recall making these comments, nor does he accept that they were made.’
