ARMIE Hammer has reportedly checked into a rehab facility for “sex, drug and alcohol issues” after allegations of “rape.”
The 34-year-old actor has been in the Cayman Islands for a few weeks following his scandal and was seen by an eagle-eyed fan, who saw him saying goodbye to estranged wife Elizabeth Chambers and their two children.
Now, sources revealed to Vanity Fair that Armie is seeking treatment in rehab for “drug, alcohols and sex” issues.
In January, a series of shocking messages were shared where the actor allegedly talked about drinking a woman’s blood, described scenes of sexual control, and referenced cannibalism.
One message showed he reportedly said he was “100% a cannibal” and told a woman “I want to eat you.”
The disgraced actor is now being investigated by police in LA after a former lover, only identified as Effie, claimed he “mentally, emotionally and sexually” abused her during their four-year relationship.
Effie was previously introduced during a press conference by Los Angeles attorney Gloria Allred in March, as she alleged she was violently raped in 2017 during which the actor slammed her head against a wall.
The brunette claimed she had an on-off relationship with the star from 2016 to 2020 after first connecting on Facebook while he was still with ex-wife Elizabeth.
In a statement, Armie’s attorney said Effie’s claims “outrageous” and insisted all interactions with her and other partners “have been completely consensual, discussed and agreed upon in advance, and mutually participatory.”
Attorney Andrew Brettler said: “Effie[‘s]… own correspondence with Mr. Hammer undermines and refutes her outrageous allegations.
“As recently as July 18, 2020, [she] sent graphic texts to Mr. Hammer telling him what she wanted him to do to her.
“Mr. Hammer responded making it clear that he did not want to maintain that type of relationship with her.”
Last month, it was reported that Armie was dating a dental hygienist on the Cayman Islands.
A source told People: ”They were recently on a ‘staycation’ out East, the other side of the island from where they live.
“They seem happy and comfortable with each other. They seem to have lots of friends and she introduces him to any friends who haven’t met him before when they are out.”
Armie’s estranged wife Elizabeth is also residing in the Cayman Islands with their four-year-old son Ford and six-year-old daughter Harper.
News of Armie’s latest romance came after The Sun exclusively reported in March that The Social Network star is “sober and dating again.”
He was previously spotted in Grand Cayman for the first time since the scandal broke as he enjoyed a cozy day with a mystery blonde.
The actor’s friends confirmed that he’s dating again, as one pal told The Sun: “Armie is seeing someone, we’ve known her a while and she’s a nice girl, I don’t believe she thinks he’s the guy he’s been portrayed as in the media.”
In addition to the claims that the actor has been sexually abusive, Armie has also had problems with drugs and alcohol.
A second source revealed Armie is desperate to prove he’s changed his ways by quitting booze and drugs, as he previously “boasted of drug use” on his secret Instagram page.
In one video on the account, which he since confirmed is his, he was seen taking a drag from a vape box, writing: “When you realize they don’t test for DMT on drug tests,” referencing the powerful hallucinogenic.
An insider claimed to The Sun: “Armie is completely sober now and really working on himself.
“It is pretty amazing to see the transformation. He seems to be in a better place.
“He is still very restricted in seeing his kids, hopefully that will all change soon.”
