Gino D’Acampo stunned as Family Fortunes contestant proposes to his girlfriend live on the show
GINO D’Acampo is left stunned as a Family Fortunes contestant proposes to his girlfriend on the ITV game show.
The Italian chef recently stepped in as host of the revamped version of the hit series.
During Sunday’s episode, the 44-year-old presenter is left in complete disbelief after contestant Liam proposes to his girlfriend Nadine.
In response to one of Gino’s questions, Liam says: “I appreciate the question Gino, but I’ve got a question to ask myself.”
The contestant then grabs his girlfriend and takes her to the centre of the stage.
Holding hands with Nadine, he continues: “I love you so much. You’ve been in my life for four years now and truly I have never loved someone more in my whole life.
“The minute I set my eyes on you, I thought you were the most amazing girl I have ever met in my entire life.”
Liam then drops to one knee and presents a ring from his pocket.
As the audience cheers, he asks Nadine: “I would love it if you could… is that a yes?”
Nadine agrees as the pair hug it out.

Gino couldn’t believe his eyes as he congratulated the newly engaged couple.
The much-loved show hasn’t aired since 2002 when Les Dennis was host.
Gino was chosen as the ideal candidate to fill the shoes of original presenter Bob Monkhouse, and his successors Max Bygraves and Coronation Street actor Les.
The show, which sees two families providing answers to everyday questions surveyed to the British public, ran for more than 20 series before it was taken off TV.
