Armie Hammer has reportedly checked into a treatment program in the wake of sexual violence and emotional abuse allegations.
Vanity Fair, who broke the news on June 8, state that the Call Me By Your Name actor departed the Cayman Islands on May 29 — the first time since the March 18 press conference in which a woman accused the actor of violent rape and physical abuse — to check into an in-patient facility for drug, alcohol and sex issues.

Hammer's supposed arrival at the Grand Cayman airport was first reported on social media by a witness, who said they saw the actor walking with his estranged wife, Elizabeth Chambers, and their two children.
"I saw them at the GCM early on Sat morning," the witness wrote. "Elizabeth and kids dropp[ed] him off and walk[ed] in as far as allowed. A lot of hugs and seemed emotional."
A source told Vanity Fair that Hammer reached out to Chambers at the end of May and told her that he was ready to seek help. They say the actor has checked into a facility outside of Orlando, Florida, and is willing to stay for "as long as it takes to get healthy".
"Everyone looks at Armie thinking that he's had some sort of privileged life — and that must mean there were no problems in his youth and everything was peachy keen," a close friend of Hammer told the publication. "But that's not necessarily the way things go. Just because you come from an upbringing where financial resources are plentiful doesn't mean life isn't without problems."
Hammer "is committed to getting healthy and having custody of his kids", according to a friend who is close with the family.
Ever since allegations made by several women via social media back in January accused Hammer of emotional abuse, manipulation and sexual violence, his Hollywood career has been in freefall.
The actor was dropped by his agency, WME, and has been fired from three high-profile projects — including the upcoming romantic comedy Shotgun Wedding starring Jennifer Lopez and television series The Offer, which details the behind-the-scenes story of the making of The Godfather.
Hammer's only public statement was made back in January, where he denied all allegations against him following his role in Shotgun Wedding being recast.
"I'm not responding to these bulls--t claims but in light of the vicious and spurious online attacks against me, I cannot in good conscience now leave my children for 4 months to shoot a film in the Dominican Republic. Lionsgate is supporting me in this and I'm grateful to them for that," the statement read.
In March, it was revealed that Hammer is being investigated by the LAPD after a woman came forward with rape allegations against him. The woman is accusing Hammer of violent rape and physical abuse, during their on-and-off four-year relationship from 2016 to 2020.
"On April 24, 2017, Armie Hammer violently raped me for over four hours in Los Angeles, during which he repeatedly slapped my head against a wall bruising my face," she said through tears during the March 18 press conference. "He also committed other acts of violence against me to which I did not consent."
In response to Effie's allegations, Hammer's lawyer, Andrew Brettler, released a statement, strongly denying the rape allegation and Effie's other claims.
"Effie's…own correspondence with Mr. Hammer undermines and refutes her outrageous allegations," the statement read. "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. The screenshot…is just one of hundreds [she] sent to Mr. Hammer."
Several serious allegations have been made against Hammer via social media since January. But according to Variety, the allegations made during the press conference marked the first time one of the actor's former partners has accused him of rape in a public forum with the legal protection of a lawyer.
