A woman claims that Armie Hammer raped her back in 2017.
The 24-year-old woman, identified only as 'Effie', says the actor violently raped her for over four-hours in Los Angeles back in April 2017.
She says she first met Hammer over Facebook in 2016 when she was 20-years-old and entered into an on-and-off relationship between 2016 to 2020. He denies the claims.
The actor's attorney said: "It was never Mr. Hammer’s intention to embarrass or expose [Effie's] fetishes or kinky sexual desires, but she has now escalated this matter to another level by hiring a civil lawyer to host a public press conference. With the truth on his side, Mr. Hammer welcomes the opportunity to set the record straight."
He went on to describe Effie's claims an "attention-seeking and ill-advised legal bid," and said,"From day one, Mr. Hammer has maintained that all of his interactions with [Effie] — and every other sexual partner of his for that matter — have been completely consensual, discussed and agreed upon in advance, and mutually participatory."
Cops in Los Angeles are now investigating the rape claim.
