Mickey Rourke’s foul-mouthed tirade against fellow Celebrity Big Brother housemate Chris Hughes has been unearthed in a sneek peak clip.

The exchange led to 72-year-old Rourke’s axing from the show, with Big Brother calling the US actor to the Diary Room amid the conflict.

It was revealed on Saturday night Rourke had been disqualified from the reality show following a warning last week which came after his homophobic remarks towards JoJo Siwa, 21.

Ahead of Sunday’s show, Celebrity Big Brother’s official Instagram account has previewed part of the tense row that led to the axe.

It seems the incident began over a pirate-themed task Big Brother had ordered.

Big Brother’s voice can be heard explaining: “This week’s Shopping Task will see you sail the seven seas as the crew of Big Brother’s very own ship.

“JoJo, you’ll be taking the helm as captain of this vessel,” at which point the singer stands up and salutes Big Brother.

“Ladies, I feel like it’s gonna be a good day,” the dancer American dancer is seen commenting later, before chaos seems to unfold.

ITV CBB viewers threaten to boycott series over Mickey Rourke remarks: ‘Why is he still here?’

Part of the task seemed to involve Trisha Goddard and Danny Beard having to unveil harsh truths about their housemates, who are watching on from another room.

“This is Big Brother, before you lie five cursed treasure chests – to unlock them, a true pirate must bare their soul by revealing raw and honest truths about their fellow shipmates,” the iconic voice instructs.

Later, Goddard informs Siwa: “There is a rat amongst us, captain,” prompting Hughes to glance at Rourke.

Hughes is seen whispering “Stick up for me,” as Rourke begins to move towards him.

Attempting to diffuse the tension, Siwa comments: “Mickey! Ahoy,” before Rourke squares up to Hughes, 32, and asks: “You looking at me?”

“Ahoy, you’re not the captain of this ship, Mickey!” Siwa adds, with Beard clarifying: “He was joking, he was joking.”

Siwa guides Rourke away before he yells at Hughes: “Don’t eyeball me!” and returns to where the former Love Island star is stood.

“Don’t! Don’t f***ing eyeball me, c***,” he fumes as Siwa comments: “Woah, woah, woah, woah.”

Retaliating, Hughes tells Rourke to “F***ing stand there,” to which the actor rages: “What did you say?”

Placing themselves between the two, Beard pleads: “No please, he was joking – please.”

“What are you going to do, you c***?” Rourke continues angrily before Big Brother intervenes.

In a stern voice, Big Brother states: “Mickey, come to the Diary Room immediately.”
