Celebrity Big Brother fans have blasted ‘disgusting’ Mickey Rourke after he was booted out of the house during Sunday night’s episode.
The Hollywood actor, 72, was thrown out of the ITV house on Saturday after exploding into a foul-mouthed rant amid an altercation with Love Island’s Chris Hughes and bringing Ella Rae Wise to tears with inappropriate Sєxual language.
His £500,000 fee for the show will reportedly be slashed following his removal from the house due to repeated ‘offensive and inappropriate’ language.
Fans rejoiced on X after Mickey was ‘finally’ removed from the house following a string of incidents that left his co-stars and viewers at home uncomfortable.
‘Now we can celebrate, good riddance to Mickey. Never liked him, didn’t know who he was even before he came on the show’,
‘Finally! Mickey Rourke has left I already knew he would leave tonight! Bye bye Mickey Rourke!!’,

‘Big brother want Mickey out. YES! he just disgusting human being #BBUK #CBBUK’,
‘Mickey Rourke is a creep. I’m glad he was removed from the house. He made far too many people feel uneasy, upset, and he crossed the line numerous times. #CBBUK’,
‘Mickey Rourke can go back to rotting in his cave with no friends and ugly greasy hair and no job offers coming in ever again! SEE YA! #CBB #CBBUK’
The confrontation occurred during the latest pirate themed shopping task when Mickey accused Chris, 32, of ‘eyeballing’ him’ before calling the reality star a ‘c***’.
It began when JoJo Siwa, 21, who had been given the role of captain, lined up her fellow housemates, asking: ‘Ahoy. How have things been going out here?’.
‘There is a rat amongst us, Captain’ Trisha Goddard, 67, said and when Chris turned to Mickey, the actor fumed: ‘You looking at me?’.
While JoJo attempted to defuse the situation and Chris ᴀssured Mickey it was simply a joke, the actor exploded: ‘Don’t eyeball me’.
‘Don’t f***ing eyeball me. You c***’ he went on, as more housemates continued to try and calm the furious actor down.

Ella broke down in tears after the altercation, just hours after she was left ‘uncomfortable’ following a Sєxual remark Mickey made towards her
As tensions boiled, Chris said: ‘F***ing stand there’ before Mickey was told to go to the diary room ‘immediately’.
‘Mickey, it was a joke’ Chris said again, only for the actor to point and the ground and reply: ‘No, your a** will be right there in a second’.
After being called again by Big Brother he headed to the Diary Room and Chris told his fellow housemates ‘Mickey’s just Mickey, you know what I mean’.
Ella broke down in tears after the altercation, just hours after she was left ‘uncomfortable’ following a Sєxual remark Mickey made towards her.
She said: ‘It’s fine, you can be just someone, but be mindful of what it can trigger in other people, because it’s made me feel very uneasy’.
During the pirates task, Ella told the group: ‘I have instructions for us all. We’re not allowed in the bedroom, no one is allowed to touch the crisps or sweets.’
Mickey replied: ‘I don’t like them anyway’.
‘You’ve got to come with me’, Ella responded.

Mickey shockingly replied: ‘Come in you.’
Danny Beard interjected: ‘Mickey, you can’t make them jokes.’
In the Diary Room Big Brother told Mickey: ‘Earlier today in a disagreement with Chris, your language and behaviour was threatening and aggressive’.
‘Big Brother does not tolerate threatening language or behaviour. In addition, you have used inappropriate Sєxual language to Ella’.
Big Brother reminded Mickey that this was not the first time he had been spoken to about his ‘offensive and inappropriate’ language – after making homophobic comments to JoJo and offending other members of the house earlier in the week.
He proffered: ‘Yes sir. I did wrong. I apologise. I’m sorry. I can’t take it back, you know, I stepped over the line. And I take responsibility for doing the wrong thing. ‘Cause I lost my temper, and I’ve been trying to work on it my whole life and I wish I would have had better self-control and I’m very sorry’.
‘I’m ashamed of myself for losing it for a few seconds there. Nobody got touched or hurt. Maybe some feelings got hurt or maybe others have feelings about others getting upset but, you know, I’m sorry about that’.
However Big Brother said that his behaviour was considered ‘seriously unacceptable’ and they had ‘no option’ but to ask him to leave.

Mickey sparked further backlash in Friday’s episode after a blunt comment left EastEnders star Patsy Palmer in tears
Mickey responded: ‘I blame myself, I know it was my bad. You know, I’ve got a short fuse and I know I upset a lot of people out there, you know. And I’m sorry for that. I’m actually ashamed of myself for getting that H๏τ’.
‘I went over the line, you know, I did wrong. I guess, like they say, I’m a work in progress. I just wanna pack my bags and leave, you know. I wanted to leave yesterday actually but I wasn’t chosen.’
It comes after a spokesperson for Celebrity Big Brother confirmed the news saying: ‘Mickey Rourke has agreed to leave the Celebrity Big Brother House this evening following a discussion with Big Brother regarding further use of inappropriate language and instances of unacceptable behaviour.’
Meanwhile, rumours are stirring that Mickey will not be receiving his full £500,000 fee after being booted from the show, a source told The Sun.
Earlier his week he was branded a ‘homophobe’ after he left dancer JoJo, 21, in tears after he insinuated he would be able to ‘make her straight’ during their time in the house and branded her a ‘f*g’.
Mickey asked Chris if everyone had to vote one another out of the house as the Wrestler star confessed: ‘I’m going to vote the lesbian out real quick.’
JoJo overheard as she hit back: ‘That’s homophobic, if that was your reasoning.’
Defending JoJo, Chris interjected, ‘You can’t do that Mickey,’ yet the star was undeterred as he added: ‘I need a f*g’ before gesturing to JoJo and adding: ‘I’m not talking to you.’
He was also slammed for his ‘creepy’ behaviour towards AJ Odudu during the launch of Celebrity Big Brother on Monday
Meanwhile, Mickey sparked further backlash earlier in Friday’s episode after a blunt comment left EastEnders star Patsy Palmer in tears.
The housemates were gathered around the kitchen table enjoying lunch prepared by the actress, 52, when the actor criticised her cooking.
He swiped: ‘What do you know, you can’t cook.’
While she initially laughed it off, Patsy soon headed to the diary room to let off some steam to Big Brother.
‘Sorry,’ she said before breaking down into tears. ‘I tried to talk that one out but it didn’t really work. I feel like I let myself down there and I don’t want my reactions to be like that.
‘I always want my kids to always stand up for themselves. Maybe it was just a joke – maybe I need to look at it like that.’
‘I need to try to rise above it. It doesn’t mean I have to like him,’ she added.
