Celebrity Big Brother has aired Mickey Rourke's exit from the show, as he was removed due to inappropriate behaviour.
In last night's episode, the housemates took part in a pirate-themed shopping task, which saw JoJo Siwa steering the ship as the captain. However, things quickly escalated when Trisha Goddard announced: "There is a rat amongst us, Captain."
Chris Hughes stepped out of line to look at Mickey, insinuating he was the "rat", resulting in a confrontation between the pair.
Chris explained that he was joking but Mickey pointed at the ground, saying: "Your ass will be right there in a second."
Mickey was then called into the Diary Room, and after a chat with Big Brother about his behaviour, he apologised to Chris.

However, an upset Ella Rae Wise referenced a sexual comment Mickey made to her earlier in the day, saying: "It's made me feel very uneasy."
Later, Mickey re-entered the Diary Room and he received another telling off about his "threatening language and inappropriate sexual language".
"This language has caused offence to your fellow housemates and could cause offence to the viewing public. This is not the first time Big Brother has had to speak to you about your offensive and inappropriate language," said Big Brother.
Mickey acknowledged his actions, saying he "stepped over the line" and apologised for losing his temper.

"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."
However, Big Brother said his language and behaviour were "seriously unacceptable" and asked him to leave the house.
Mickey concluded: "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."
Celebrity Big Brother airs on ITV2 and ITVX.
