Celebrity Big Brother’s Mickey Rourke’s £500,000 consequence after being axed from show

Mickey Rourke is reportedly facing a very expensive consequence after being kicked out of the Celebrity Big Brother house.

New reports have claimed the Hollywood star, 72, who was removed from the ITV house this weekend, will miss out on his rumoured £500,000 fee for his shocking behaviour.

While it’s claimed he will receive some compensation for his time and appearance on the hit show, it’s likely to be much less than what he originally agreed to.

‘Mickey won’t be receiving all his money from ITV,’ a source revealed this morning.

They continued to say that it’s standard protocol if a celebrity gets removed from the house, ‘they don’t get the full fee’.

‘It’s as simple as that and they will be discussing that with him. Mickey was ready to leave the house and it ended up feeling like a mutual decision between him and ITV in the end. It was getting too much,’ the source told The Sun.

While Rourke was saved from eviction on Friday with Michael Fabricant booted out of the house instead after a public vote, a Celebrity Big Brother spokesperson confirmed to Metro on Saturday night that he decided to leave after a series of incidents involving inappropriate language and unacceptable behaviour.

‘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.’

Rourke sparked backlash over his ‘creepy’ behaviour towards host AJ Odudu during the launch of Celebrity Big Brother last week, when he grabbed Odudu and pulled her towards him as he eyed her up and down.

Viewers were quick to brand his actions ‘creepy’ and ‘vile’, with some saying he should have been axed from the show right then and there.

He then continued to cause upset among housemates and viewers after he used homophobic language and made vile comments toward Jojo Siwa.

He told the 21-year-old popstar: ‘If I stay longer than four days, you won’t be gay anymore.’

It resulted in outrage online, and the former Dance Moms star went on to give him a killer nomination.

Siwa’s partner and mother also spoke out, condemning his comments and inclusion in the programme.

Metro understands there have been further instances where he has used inappropriate language.

One instance may include Rourke’s behaviour and language toward Love Island star Chris Hughes last week.

The pair were caught in a disagreement while completing a task, and things took a frightening turn. Rourke’s actions toward the reality star were considered to be threatening and physical, though no physical altercation took place.

Rourke had previously made it clear that he wasn’t confident he would last more than four days in the Celebrity Big Brother house.

He also told Trisha Goddard about his reasoning for going on the show, saying: ‘I thought let me just try something new. I decided to isolate and live alone and not have any relationships about six years ago. So, a lot of good stuff is coming to me from just being alone.’

‘This is not easy here for me,’ he added.
