Celebrity Big Brother release Mickey Rourke's expletive-laden row which saw him thrown off show

The Hollywood star has been ejected from the show just days after entering

Mickey Rourke has been removed from the Celebrity Big Brother house after losing his temper during an expletive-laden row with fellow contestant Chris Hughes.

During a pirate-themed task which took place in the garden of the iconic property, JoJo Siwa was given the role of Captain and was put in charge of steering the ship.

There was a moment in the game where some confusion arose between Chris and Mickey, with the former Love Island star giving the Barfly actor a look the latter didn't like.

Mickey confronted Chris, asking: "You looking at me?", before accusing the 32-year-old of eyeballing him.

Chris responded by insisting he was just making a joke, to which Rourke answered back: "Don’t f***ing eyeball me. You c***."

Danny Beard and JoJo both made an attempt to diffuse the situation, before Big Brother addressed Mickey over the speaker system, announcing: "This is Big Brother. Mickey, come to the diary room immediately."

Following a conversation with Big Brother in the Diary Room about his behaviour, Mickey then returned to the garden and apologised to Chris.

A short while later, Ella Rae Wise approached Chris and revealed that Mickey had made a comment earlier in the day which made her uncomfortable.

This led to Rourke being called to the Diary Room yet again, where he was scolded for his behaviour.

In the Diary Room, Big Brother said: "Mickey, Big Brother needs to speak to you about your behaviour."

"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 sexual language to Ella."

Mickey said that he wasn't aware of that but offered his apologies to Big Brother.

"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."

"I lost my temper," he added. "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."

Big Brother replied: "Big Brother considers your language and behaviour today to be seriously unacceptable and as a result Big Brother has no option but to ask you to leave the Big Brother house."

When asked if he had anything he wanted to say before he leaves, the 72-year-old said: "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 hot," he added. "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."

While many thought Rourke would get the boot during Friday night’s eviction, former Tory MP Michael Fabricant was the one eliminated instead.

The series continues on Sunday at 9pm on ITV and ITVX.
