The 48-year-old is busy launching “multiple work projects” in Australia, such as two new restaurants and talks lined up for TV.
Gino reportedly now has a “secret strategy” in place to rebuild his career.
Namely, to analyse how other famous faces have moved forward when faced with similar allegations.
A friend of the chef told the Daily Mail: “Gino has watched carefully as other telly favourites have failed to weather stormy waters.
“He was told to keep his gob shut and that is what he has done.
“He’s been particularly keen to avoid criticising his employers and, despite vigorously denying the allegations, he hasn’t belittled the anonymous complainants.”
Elsewhere, the pal also said: “If he can prove he can make things work Down Under, then he can restore his reputation and that will make his return to UK television easier.”
Earlier this year, ITV cut ties with with the former This Morning favourite, following allegations of inappropriate behaviour while making shows.
Gino’s representative said previously: “He loves Australia a lot — the people, culture, cleanliness and environment.”
While Gino will keep a base in the UK, he will be spending increasing amounts of time Down Under over the next two years as he also sets up a new cookware range for the international market.
A source added: “Gino has had a fantastic career over here — and still has an incredibly loyal fanbase.”

Last year, The Sun revealed Gino had been put on a language and behavioural course by concerned ITV bosses.
And earlier this year an ITV investigation found there were multiple claims of “unacceptable”, “distressing” and “horrendous” behaviour against him, dating back 12 years.
It was also claimed ITV ignored complaints over the star’s “inappropriate” treatment of colleagues, which included sexist comments made towards former This Morning presenter Holly Willoughby in 2018.
He was also edged out of Gordon, Gino and Fred: Road Trip after refusing to sign a morality clause.
Gino has firmly denied all the allegations against him.
