Gino D’Acampo is facing a new accusation that he kissed a footballer’s wife on the lips at a charity event in front of an audience because he ‘can’.
D’Acampo is facing various accusations of inappropriate sexual behaviour that have emerged over the past few months.
The 48-year-old Italian chef has been accused of ‘thrusting his crotch’ at a female staffer and making comments about his ‘sex deprived’ penis.
Now, fresh allegations have suggested that the TV star kissed a footballer’s wife on the lips, shocking onlookers at a 2012 black-tie charity event held at Stoke City Football Club.
‘As Gino was introduced to the stage, he walked through the audience directly to the table where the footballer and his wife were seated.
‘He then very suddenly grabbed her by the face, and kissed her on the lips,’ a source told MailOnline.
They alleged that D’Acampo then walked onto the stage and told the audience: ‘You know why I did that, ladies and gentlemen? Because I f*****g can.’
He then reportedly turned to the former footballer and said: ‘You want to f*****g kill me right now, don’t you?
The source added that the couple could do nothing but look stunned and couldn’t react to the very public kiss.
‘She appeared visibly shocked, and her husband looked really stunned too and not exactly pleased.
‘But it was so public I think they both felt they had no choice but to let it go.’
A second source told the publication the same story, confirming that everyone felt ‘uncomfortable.’
The MailOnline decided not to disclose the identity of the footballer or his wife but confirmed that D’Acampo’s spokesperson confirmed he was – and remains – friends with the footballer.
They also denied the claims and told MailOnline: ‘He did not force himself upon her without consent and in a ”nonconsensual” way.’
Just a few days ago,it was alleged that ITV ‘failed to act on warning about D’Acampo’s sex slurs against Holly Willoughby’
D’Acampo allegedly said: ‘If I could put the face of one on the body of the other then maybe, but I’d probably choose Holly because I’d have more fun with her.’
The woman told The Sun: ‘I was disgusted by what he said and how he behaved. He was crude and vile. He’s a vulgar cretin.’
Kim Woodburn, who appeared in I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out of Here alongside the star, also claimed that he was a ‘full-of-himself little pig.’
‘He was a horrible, vile man. A full-of-himself little pig,’ she told The Sun.
She also referenced one specific incident when D’Acampo stroked his private parts and spoke to his penis: ‘He used to stand over a log and stroke his privates over his shorts. He’d talk to his penis saying, “I know you haven’t had any sex, but when you get out of here, you will get so much”.’
She recalled that he called his penis ‘deprived and neglected’.
Metro has reached out to Gino D’Acampo’s representatives for comment.
