The Celebrity Big Brother house has been thrown into lockdown after a “major security breach”.
The new series of Celebrity Big Brother got underway on Monday night and it saw the likes of pop star Jojo Siwa, Trisha Goddard step into the house.
It’s safe to say actor Mickey Rourke made quite the first impression on viewers when he hit on host AJ Odudu. AJ herself made light of the incident when she broke her silence on the “encounter”.
However, things took a scary turn when housemates were ordered inside the TV house at ITV’s new West London studio after a drone flew over the house and landed in the garden. It’s claimed this happened after a TikToker broke into the TV compound, causing a security breach.

It’s believed two of the celebs were outside in the garden when the drone appeared – Hollywood hardman Mickey and former MP Michael Fabricant. Producers reportedly ordered all celebs inside the house before the doors were locked, the shutters were brought down, and the housemates were “locked indoors for hours”.
The security team are now reviewing footage to determine how the security breach took place. A source claimed: “It was a major security breach.
“Flying a drone over the house is one thing but to be able to as good as land it in the garden meters away from the stars is terrifying. Michael was the first to spot the drone and pretended to shoot it down while Mickey was baffled.

The added to The Sun: “All the housemates ran to the doors to see what was happening but Big Brother quickly pulled down the shutters. Security is now being reviewed.”
A video has surfaced on TikTok by a user called @thedronemenace which seems to show footage from the drone in question. In the clip, Michael Fabricant and Mickey Rourke can be seen looking up at the drone, rather confused.
Mickey is using an exercise bike and Michael, who is standing next to him, pretends to shoot down the device. Mickey, who was crossing his arms while continuing to pedal on the bike, is later seen beckoning to the drone as if he was suggesting it should follow him inside the house.

Later, huge metal shutters are shown rolling over the windows leading into the house. Alongside the video, the user wrote: “Step inside the Big Brother house with me as I mingle with the stars! But just as the fun begins, the unexpected happens—lockdown activated due to the Drone Menace!
“Watch as secrets unfold and tension rises! Will the celebrities handle the pressure? Stay tuned for exclusive footage and behind-the-scenes drama you won’t want to miss!”
However, it is not confirmed this is the person who broke into the premises. ITV declined to comment when contacted by Daily Star.
Celebrity Big Brother airs every night at 9pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
