Disgraced Hollywood actor Armie Hammer left behind some rather unusual rubbish after he vacated the Los Angeles mansion he used to share with his estranged wife, Elizabeth Chambers, over the weekend.
Hammer moved out of the house “under the cover of night” following his recent scandal. Multiple women have come forward to allege Hammer targeted them with abusive and cannibalistic fantasies.
Paparazzi snapped a photo of rubbish bins outside Hammer and Chambers’ seven-bedroom, six-bedroom abode after the actor had made his hasty escape.

It’s a headless female mannequin, which appears to be bound repeatedly with rope.
Given the allegations against Hammer, it seems a bizarrely conspicuous method of disposal – reminiscent of Ben Affleck pointedly disposing of a life-sized Ana de Armas cardboard cut-out in the rubbish bin outside his house after splitting with the actress in January.
Celeb-watchers with long memories might recall that, years before his current headline-making troubles, Hammer was busted for liking and following various explicit rope bondage photos on his Twitter account, apparently unaware it was publicly viewable to anyone.
As the allegations against him exploded earlier this year, eagle-eyed followers also noted that Hammer followed Instagram hashtags including “shibari,” a form of Japanese rope bondage, and “knife skills”.
He also followed a fetish clothing brand specialising in ball gags and restraints, and a fetish photographer specialising in bondage-inspired shoots.
Hammer has been dropped by his talent agency and departed several upcoming acting projects as the allegations about his personal life have swirled in recent months.
Multiple women have come forward accusing Hammer of disturbing behaviour during relationships carried out during his marriage to Chambers. Dozens of screenshots allegedly show Hammer detailing graphic fantasies involving rape, cannibalism and other violent acts.
In a post to her Instagram account, Chambers said she was “shocked, heartbroken, and devastated” by the multiple allegations against her former husband of 10 years.
“For weeks, I’ve been trying to process everything that has transpired. I am shocked, heartbroken, and devastated. Heartbreak aside, I am listening, and will continue to listen and educate myself on these delicate matters. I didn’t realise how much I didn’t know,” she wrote.

In a statement released in January, Hammer dismissed the various claims against him as “bullsh*t” while announcing he was dropping out of his next film project to spend more time with his and Chambers’ two children.
“I’m not responding to these bullsh*t claims but in light of the vicious and spurious online attacks against me, I cannot in good conscience now leave my children for four months to shoot a film in the Dominican Republic. Lionsgate is supporting me in this and I’m grateful to them for that,” he said.
Hammer had been based in the Cayman Islands, where his two children, Harper, 6, and Ford, 3, have been living with Chambers since the start of the pandemic. He’s been fighting for joint custody of the children in the couple’s divorce proceedings.
