Rourke leaves Big Brother after row with housemate
The Independent
|April 13, 2025
Mickey Rourke has been kicked off Celebrity Big Brother after an "unacceptable" run-in with Chris Hughes.
It was announced by ITV yesterday that the Hollywood actor had "agreed to leave" the show following "a discussion with Big Brother regarding further use of inappropriate language and instances of unacceptable behaviour”.
While the specific incident that led to Rourke’s departure is yet to be revealed, it’s believed it occurred during a disagreement with Love Island star and sports broadcaster Hughes.
Rourke’s behaviour during the interaction “was considered to be threatening and aggressive”, although it’s been stressed that “no physical altercation took place”.
The actor, whose credits include Angel Heart
