Later on Fred shared a sweet clip of them together relaxing on sunbeds after the big day as Fruitcake showed off her huge engagement ring and wedding band.
Fred proposed to his girlfriend, known only by her affectionate nickname ‘Fruitcake’, in March 2020 after two years of dating.
Fred keeps his love life largely under wraps and only occasionally shares snaps of himself and Fruitcake on social media during romantic getaways.
In January 2018, Fred revealed he had begun dating his now fiancée with a post on his Instagram page.
The pair first met nine years ago when they caught one another’s eye when walking through Peckham.
Speaking to Fabulous magazine, Fred revealed: ‘Occasionally, I’ll go for a little wine and some tapas after work with my partner, who I like to call ‘fruitcake’.
‘It’s nice to have a relaxing conversation and chill out when you’ve had a long day. If I do get the chance to be in the kitchen, I love making fresh pasta. I find rolling it out very therapeutic and I get flour everywhere; it’s great fun.
‘In the evenings I like nothing more than sitting down with a beer and watching something on Netflix.’

Fred was previously in a long-term relationship with his ex Alex for 12 years and they share two children – Andrea, 20, and Matteo Lucien, 16.
Fred previously revealed that he and Fruitcake had cancelled their wedding, and were planning to wait until the end of the Covid pandemic to exchange their vows.
He also revealed that due to lockdown he couldn’t present his fiancé with a ring when he popped the question, but luckily she still said yes.
While in the I’m A Celebrity jungle last year, Fred said he and Fruitcake were planning to say ‘I do’ in Jamaica.
He said: ‘I’ve never had a bad date. But the way I met Fruitcake, I met her in Peckham…
‘I was walking up and she was smiling at me and I was smiling at her and I liked her eyes… I just had to talk to her…
‘I asked for her number, I said, ‘Shall we go for a drink tonight?’ ‘That was nine years ago. We’re getting married next year in Jamaica.’
The nuptials were undoubtedly a lavish affair as company documents released in 2020 revealed Fred had nearly £1 million in the bank at the time.
In December, Fruitcake revealed that she was diagnosed with Bell’s Palsy and admitted she ‘doesn’t recognise her own reflection’.
Bell’s Palsy is a neurological condition which causes temporary weakness or paralysis in the muscles on one side of the face.
The fashion expert, 50, admitted she had been rushed to hospital in an ambulance after the symptoms appeared, as they can be similar to that of a stroke.
Fruitcake shared a collection of selfies from throughout her battle with Bell’s Palsy as she gave fans an insight into her recovery.
Taking to Instagram, she said: ‘Hello, everyone! I’ve been away for the past couple of months due to a diagnosis of Bell’s Palsy.
‘For those who may not know this condition causes sudden, temporary weakness or paralysis of the muscles on one side of the face.’
Opening up about her symptoms, she said: ‘Initially, I experienced excruciating pain, facial distortion (check out my pics – last one is most recent), and discomfort in my ear and head, which was incredibly painful and challenging to manage.

‘The symptoms of Bell’s Palsy are similar to a stroke. And so when I called the NHS helpline, I was rushed to A&E by ambulance for immediate care.
‘Now, I’m managing some ongoing issues like visual disturbances and aches in my ear and jaw.’
Fruitcake shared that the loss of feeling in her face meant at times she didn’t recognise her reflection.
‘One of the toughest challenges has been not recognising my reflection in the mirror, which made me retreat from social situations,’ she said.
‘However, each day brings new blessings, and I’m starting to look more like myself again. Since my diagnosis, I’ve delved into researching the condition—something I hadn’t even heard of until now. Hearing the stories of others in similar situations has been incredibly inspiring.’
She added: ‘I want to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude—my family and friends have been incredible throughout this journey.
‘Thank you to everyone who has reached out to check on me; your support means the world! Thank you also to everyone at the NHS who looked after me. You guys are brilliant x
‘I feel truly blessed that my recovery is progressing faster than I initially anticipated.
‘As we approach the holiday season, I wish you all a lovely Christmas and all the best in 2025! I’ll be back soon to share my fashion finds, but in the meantime, please stay safe and, most importantly, healthy! Take care, and see you soon! ❤️.’
Elsewhere, Fred’s scandal plagued co-star Gino D’Acampo allegedly left a dancer humiliated by suggesting she join both men in a threesome while filming their latest ITV series Emission Impossible.
The TV chef, 48, has been rocked by ‘over 40’ allegations of sexually inappropriate and intimidating behaviour over a 12-year period – claims which he denies, saying he finds them deeply distressing.
In a clip obtained by The Sun, which was filmed in October 2023 but did not air, Italian Gino and Frenchman Fred ventured to Austria where they were taught traditional dancing.
According to the publication the married chef repeatedly quizzed the female dancer if she ‘prefers Italian or French’ men, despite her insisting she had a boyfriend.
Later Gino allegedly pretended to slap his co-star’s genitals while they performed the routine before asking the dancer: ‘Why don’t you just have a threesome.’
‘No’ she replied firmly, before asking the audience: ‘Everybody happy?’.
To which the dancer once again hit back: ‘Not me’, the exchange reportedly led to the family dance troupe complaining to the series’ production company.
A source said: ‘The show was subject to a number of complaints from contributors and crew. These were escalated to ITV when filming was halted after a week on location in Austria.
‘This was supposedly due to Gino’s ill health. But there were already concerns about his behaviour when the shoot was pulled’.
‘You can see in the video that the dancers are visibly uncomfortable during filming and Gino made a number of sexually inappropriate comments to them.’
MailOnline have contacted Gino’s reps, ITV for comment.
On Sunday, Fred reportedly made a public show of support for Gino amid allegations of ‘inappropriate behaviour’ and liked his pals latest, according to The Mirror – which no longer appears on the post.
Gino posted a video of his meet and greet with fans at an Asda store where he flogged his cook book.
MailOnline have contacted Fred’s representatives for a comment.
Carefree Gino enjoyed a night out with wife Jessica Stellina Morrison and co-star Fred just 24-hours before his axe from ITV over allegations of sexually inappropriate and intimidating behaviour.

But before the news broke Gino, 48, and Jessica, who share sons Luciano, 22, Rocco, 19, and 12-year-old Mia, were enjoying a rollicking outing with co-star Fred.
In the clip shared to Instagram all three beamed and giggled as they entered the event with Gino joking his wife had ‘chosen the wrong foreigner’ as she held hands with French man Fred.
It is understood the Italian chef was secretly ditched from Gordon, Gino and Fred: Road Trip after refusing to sign a morality clause in his contract that would have allowed ITV to sack him if his behaviour on set was problematic.
While Fred continues to show support for his pal Gino, Gordon Ramsay has stayed silent amid the furore.
Hints that their relationship was not all that it seemed date back to 2019 when Gordon made no secret of his fury that his then-teenage daughter Tilly was dating his co-star’s son Luciano.
Both 17 at the time, the young lovebirds made headlines after meeting on the set of their fathers’ joint ITV food show, Gordon, Gino and Fred: Road Trip, with the foul mouthed British chef branding the relationship a ‘nightmare’.
His reservations are now thrown into a whole new light after the treasured friendship between the two men soured in recent months, with Gordon even accused of ‘throwing Gino under the bus’ as he battles to save his reputation.
