Mickey Rourke details 'visit from Secret Service' following Donald Trump controversy

Mickey Rourke has recalled getting an unexpected 'visit' from the Secret Service.

Sin City actor Rourke is currently in the Celebrity Big Brother house alongside the likes of JoJo Siwa, Trisha Goddard, and Love Island star Chris Hughes.

The show only launched its most reason celebrity season on April 7, and Rourke is already causing controversy having been slapped with a formal warning from producers after making homophobic remarks towards Siwa.

Siwa's partner Kath Ebbs has since addressed the incident and branded Rourke as a 'weasel'.

Now, in last night's episode on CBB UK (April 11), Rourke claimed the Secret Service once paid him a visit.

He got onto the top of politics in the diary room when explaining his reasoning for nominating Michael Fabricant for eviction.

"He’s a politician. Politics in general, they’re telling you what they’re going to do on one hand, and on the other hand they’re not going to do a thing," he said.

Rourke continued to say that he doesn't find politics 'very truthful and honest'.

Addressing his alleged visit from the SS, the actor said: "I got myself in some hot water back in the United States making some comments about a particular person that I’m not gonna mention but it was no laughing matter when the Secret Service came to talk to me."

In light of his recent remarks, a July 2022 interview of Rourke's on Piers Morgan's Uncensored has resurfaced, where he also referenced an alleged visit from the Secret Service.

In their chat, the actor said: "They call it the United States of America, but it’s now the Divided States of America, and there’s one big reason for that, but I’m not going to go into it because I don’t need another visit from the Secret Service."

When asked by Morgan when such a visit allegedly happened, Rourke said 'about six months ago'.

The broadcaster proceeded to ask why the SS had supposedly visited him, to which Rourke bluntly replied: "Take a wild guess."

He then confirmed that it was a result of remarks he'd made about Trump, adding that such remarks were 'the truth'.

When Morgan asked him to further elaborate on what he'd say, Rourke remained silent before replying: "Read my mind."

According to Buzzfeed, Rourke has spoken out on numerous occasions about his feelings towards Trump, like in 2018, when he called him a 'garbage can' president.
