April 14, 2025

CELEBRITY Big Brother star Sir Michael Fabricant has said Hollywood actor Mickey Rourke wanted to leave the house “on day one”.

The Bafta winner, 72, was asked to leave the show on Saturday after “further use of inappropriate language” and “instances of unacceptable behaviour”.

The PA news agency understands Rourke used behaviour and language that was considered to be threatening and aggressive during a task.

His behaviour was directed towards housemate Chris Hughes. No physical altercation took place.

A spokesperson for the ITV show said: “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.”
