Overview

  • Photographed outside his Beverly Hills home on Aug. 11, the 72-year-old spoke with a pest-control technician before returning indoors, according to the outlets.
  • Images published Aug. 27 by Page Six, the New York Post and the Sun show him looking disheveled in an unzipped gray hoodie, lime green pants and white sneakers.
  • The Sun described his Beverly Hills property as needing renovation, citing overgrown landscaping and a worn front door, and said he has been largely reclusive.
  • Rourke was removed from Celebrity Big Brother in April after a formal warning over homophobic remarks to JoJo Siwa and a confrontational exchange with Chris Hughes, and he apologized in the Diary Room for “stepping over the line.”
  • The new reports provide no update on earlier tabloid claims that his appearance fee could be sharply reduced due to his early exit.
