There are several possible answers
#1 suspect is the outside outlet... Full of water in many cases
Sometimes the fridge is on the GFCI (Need not be but they do it anyway) and sometimes the heat element in the fridge. can short to ground. or in my fridge (Which was NOT on the GFCI) there was a terminal board that if you did not follow instructions got wet and would have done the trip... (Dealer did not follow directions.. I did).
Easy to check the fridge though. when the GFCI trips. does it still say "AC" or does it switch to "GAS" (or LP)? if it says AC. that's NOT a suspect.
