Bella Thorne has spoken out about Mickey Rourke in light of a series of remarks he has made to JoJo Siwa on Celebrity Big Brother UK.

The actor has made homophobic slurs to the 21-year-old, which has led to him receiving a formal warning from CBB producers and apologizing for his comments.

However, in the wake of what's been happening, Thorne - who worked with Rourke on the 2020 movie Girl - has taken to social media to make a series of allegations about her co-star.

What has Thorne said?

Posting on Instagram this week, Thorne wrote: "This f**king dude. GROSS. I had to work with this man – In a scene where I’m on my knees with my hands zip-tied around my back. He’s supposed to take a metal grinder to my kneecap, and instead he used it on my genitals thru my jeans. Hitting them over and over again."

Thorne continued to say that the ordeal left her with 'bruises on [her] pelvic bone' and branded working with Rourke as 'one of the all-time worst experiences of my life working as an actress'.

Thorne then took her claims to X and penned: "So many gross stories of things made me go thru on that movie, including in his last scene to speed up and rev his engine so he could cover me completely in dirt.

"Idk I guess he thought it was funny to humiliate me in front of the entire crew.

"Having to go in his trailer absolutely alone because he refused to speak to the director or producers - so I had to convince him to show up and complete his job, as he shouted crazy demands that he wanted from the producers. In fact I had to beg. Alone. In his trailer.

"Since the movie could not be finished without him. Everyone’s work would’ve just been lost and completely for nothing. I didn’t wanna do it. I was uncomfortable, but I did what I was asked to do and what was best for the movie. Mickey should’ve never put anybody in that movie in any of those positions that he did."

Thorne continued: "Also side note: like f**k Mickey - how he acted doesn’t negate the incredible hard work that everybody else put into that movie.

"Everyone worked HARD literal blood, sweat, and tears to make that vision and I’m really proud of everyone and the work that was done on that movie."

What has Rourke's representative said?

A rep for Rourke has since addressed Thorne's remarks and stated that the 72-year-old denies any wrongdoing.

In a statement issued to Variety, a rep for the actor said: "These allegations are extremely serious. Mr. Rourke adamantly denies any intentional misconduct. He was not made aware of any such concerns during filming and had no prior knowledge of Ms. Thorne’s discomfort until now."

Rourke’s rep continued: "Out of respect for all parties and given the gravity of the claims, Mr. Rourke will not be making further public comment at this time. He remains willing to cooperate with any appropriate inquiry through the proper channels.

"We affirm the right of every performer to feel safe and respected in their work environment."
