Armie Hammer has spoken out in an interview for the first time after he was accused of sexually assaulting several women and even of cannibalism.
The actor says his love of BDSM showed up after he was sexually abused when he was 13.
“What that did for me was it introduced sexuality into my life in a way that it was completely out of my control. I was powerless in the situation. I had no agency in the situation,” Hammer said to Air Mail. “Sexuality was introduced to me in a scary way where I had no control. My interests then went to: I want to have control in the situation, sexually.”
His godmother, Candace Garvey, confirmed the account to the publication. He admitted that he tried to take his life after the women stepped forward in 2021.
“I just walked out into the ocean and swam out as far as I could and hoped that either I drowned, or was hit by a boat, or eaten by a shark. Then I realized that my kids were still on shore, and that I couldn’t do that to my kids.”
