Armie Hamer’s estranged wife has revealed she found out about his allegations of sexual assault and violent cannibalism fantasies at the same time as the rest of the world as she compares her heartbreak to heroin addiction.
Elizabeth Chambers, 40, broke her silence for the first time today over her ill-fated marriage to the disgraced movie star as she divulged it was lockdown that tore their relationship apart not Hammer’s infidelity.
In an interview with Elle Magazine, the TV personality and bakery chain owner said she was now in a new relationship which was helping to heal her ‘body, heart and mind’ after Hammer.
But since news of her ex-husband’s behavior came to light, she is worried about how it will affect their children, asking: ‘Do I want my son to become this? Would I want my daughter to stay in a relationship like this?’
Hammer, 36, has been accused by multiple women of sexual assault, emotional manipulation and of having violent kink fantasies involving cannibalism.

The Social Network star broke his own silence at the weekend to admit he was an ‘a**hole’ and revealed he was molested by a pastor at 13.
Now his ex-wife Chambers, who filed for divorce in 2020, has weighed in on the allegations as she revealed: ‘I was learning things as the public was. I was like, ‘There are no words. What the f***?’
However she added: ‘ The last thing I ever want to do is let someone else’s actions, which have nothing to do with me, make me angry.
‘It’s not going to help me, and it’s not going to help anyone around me.’
The TV host and bakery owner paints the picture of a strained marriage, revealing they once attended a dinner party together and did not talk to one another.
Their relationship was also mired by allegations of infidelity. Hammer has admitted to having an affair with a woman he met on social media in 2016.
Chambers said the pair sought the help of famous couples’ therapist Esther Perel who told her ‘heartbreak is literally worse than heroin addiction.’
When asked of Hammer’s sexual fantasies, Chambers declined to comment, simply saying ‘boundaries are everything.’
The TV personality in her own right said she learned the news of Hammer’s allegations at the same time as the rest of the world, adding ‘what the fuck?’
Chambers revealed she and Hammer were in couples’ therapy for much of their marriage
She added: ‘Your partner is learning things about themselves. They’re growing, you’re growing, you hope that you’re growing together.’

The nail in the coffin of their relationship came during the pandemic, she said after Hammer left their family during quarantine.
In 2020, the couple were in a boat trip in St Barts and were intending to return home to L.A. when Covid cases started spiking.
Instead they travelled to the Cayman islands to quarantine with Hammer’s father and stepmother, Misty, along with their own children.
Hammer had previously described the situation as ‘very complicated’ and ‘intense’ due to the presence of ‘big personalities all locked in a little tiny place.’
Reflecting on the period now, Chambers told Elle: ‘He was the worst.’
Hammer then decided to leave his wife and kids in the Caymans and head back to California where he helped a friend to restore an old motel near Joshua Tree National Park.
Hammer and Chambers, 40, were married for ten years after being introduced by a mutual friend in 2007
Chambers said the move broke her heart ‘into nine million pieces,’ adding ‘I still drove him to the airport.’
Chambers filed for divorce in July that year.
She told the magazine: ‘You can give, you can love, you can be there for someone but you also need to hold people accountable for their actions.’
She added that the thought of her family breaking up was her ‘biggest fear.’
‘You’re building something, right?’ she said.
‘You’re weaving a beautiful tapestry, and the last thing you want is for a knife to come and rip the tapestry in half.’
Chambers has now moved on with a 26-year-old European boyfriend who she claimed is helping to ‘heal my body, my heart and my mind.’
However her sister Catherine, who also spoke to Elle, denied Chambers has ‘fully healed’ from her relationship with Hammer.
‘She is really happy—blissfully happy, in many ways—but this will always be something she’ll have to address,’ she said.
‘She’s got this darkness that’s basically tagging along and tapping her on the shoulder every once in a while.
‘It’s like, ‘Oh, wait. We’ve got to remind everybody that this happened to you and caused damage in your life.’
