EastEnders star Patsy Palmer has responded to an "awkward" Celebrity Big Brother moment.
The Bianca Jackson actor famously got upset in the house after Mickey Rourke criticised the food she made, stating that couldn't cook, "not even a little bit", and referred multiple times to the way she made broccoli.
She laughed it off in the conversation with him, but later cried about it in the Diary Room.
When she was evicted earlier this week, Palmer was asked by hosts Will Best and AJ Odudu about Rourke's hatred of her broccoli, and she refused to answer.
The way she didn't answer the question led to a lot of discussion on social media, something Palmer addressed on her Instagram Stories.

"There's nothing awkward about silence. It says it all!" she wrote.
"If you can't be kind, be quiet," she added a few hours after.
When Palmer was evicted as the third housemate in a row to be shown the boot on Tuesday, she was thankful to fans for voting her out.
On Late & Live, she explained that she didn't realise housemates were actually filmed 24/7 and that people actually came in and out, which made the experience quite difficult for her.

Meanwhile, Rourke was removed from the house on day 6 after "further use of inappropriate language and instances of unacceptable behaviour" following an official warning.
After the latest round of evictions, the final housemates are Chris Hughes, Danny Beard, Chesney Hawkes, Donna Preston, Jack P. Shepherd, and JoJo Siwa, with the winner set to be decided tomorrow.
Celebrity Big Brother airs on ITV2 and ITVX.
