Celebrity Big Brother 2025 LIVE: Second star is evicted in tense public vote

Moment Mickey Rourke furiously confronts Chris Hughes in Celebrity Big Brother bust up

Celebrity Big Brother is in full swing – and in the past week, we’ve seen a new selection of famous (and not-so-famous) faces attempt peaceful cohabitation in the reality show house.

Presenter Trisha Goddard, 67, was the second housemate to be evicted, receiving the fewest public votes on Tuesday (15 April).

Elsewhere in the episode, JoJo Siwa, 21, opened up about her gender identity in the diary room, telling Big Brother that “beautiful non-binary people are who I feel the most like” – but clarifying that “it’s not something I want to say about myself yet”.

Goddard’s exit follows Michael Fabricant, who was the first to be evicted. The Wrestler actor Mickey Rourke was next removed after a chaotic six-day stint in the house.

Rourke, 72, had been at the centre of controversy since his entrance when he “ogled” presenter AJ Odudu. He later faced calls to be ejected from the house after making homophobic comments to Siwa.

He was ultimately thrown off the show by producers for “inappropriate sexual language” aimed at The Only Way is Essex star Ella Rae Wise, 24, as well as “threatening and aggressive” behaviour towards Chris Hughes, 32.

Rourke grew irate when Hughes, in character as a pirate for a shopping task, “eyeballed” him. Rourke later apologised to the former Love Island star, and told Big Brother he was “ashamed” of his actions. According to evicted housemate Fabricant, however, the worst of what Rourke said was not even broadcast.

The series continues at 9pm on ITV and ITVX.

Trisha says entering the Big Brother house was a “holiday from having to think about cancer”.

Which housemate would Trisha welcome onto her show? “It would’ve been Mickey – but with security very close by.”

“He was an experience…” That’s one way of putting it!

Gosh this is a bit brutal, isn’t it?Having Trisha reflect on her seemingly worst qualities live on telly…

So Patsy is more LA and Trisha is more New York… what are you?

Poor Trisha

Can you imagine having to do a live TV interview after receiving bad news? And then having to watch clips of your ex-housemates trash-talk you in the diary room? Eek!

Trisha isn’t one to care about Big Brother’s rules, ignoring instructions to leave immediately and taking time to hug her (ex) housemates goodbye.

Drum roll, please…

And the next out of the house is… TRISHA.

Both JoJo and Chris have a third nipple? This friendship was destined to be.

Chris: “Only f***ing cool people have them.”

£795 for those ripped jeans?!

I’m starting to sound like my granny, because nearly £800 for Chris’s tattered jeans sounds outrageous!
