The public’s decision to evict Michael Fabricant shocked some viewers, though his controversial statements on immigration drew criticism both in and out of the house. He had been nominated by six housemates, including Trisha Goddard and Mickey Rourke, indicating tensions were already building.
Mickey Rourke’s escape attempt created a stir not just inside the house, but across social media. It remains unclear how far he got, but producers were quick to step in. This rebellious move added another layer to his already unpredictable behavior on the show.
Patsy Palmer, meanwhile, found herself on the receiving end of Mickey’s blunt criticism, breaking down after he insulted her cooking. The moment highlighted the emotional pressure already mounting in the house just days into the competition.
Fans also noticed a shake-up in the format of the eviction show. While ITV hasn’t confirmed details, speculation is swirling about possible changes to voting rules or the nomination process. The format tweak has fans watching even more closely for what comes next.
With just one eviction down, Celebrity Big Brother 2025 is already proving to be one of the most dramatic seasons yet — and the tension is only rising.
