Elizabeth Chambers said her two young children don’t know about her new boyfriend because she tried to “protect” them from any “trauma” while they were still going through her divorce from their father Armie Hammer.
“They don’t know he’s my boyfriend,” she wrote to a fan during a Q&A session on her Instagram story. “For the past two and a half years, my main and only priority has been to reduce trauma and protect my children at all costs.”
She added that she didn’t find it “helpful, productive or necessary” to start a new relationship with children who are “still processing a divorce emotionally,” but noted, “to each his own.” Chambers is currently dating wellness therapist Ricardas Kazinec.
Chambers filed for divorce following allegations of abuse, rape and cannibalistic fantasies against Hammer. He has denied the allegations. The couple had been married for 10 years.
