Elizabeth Chambers and her castmates from the Freeform show “Grand Cayman: Secrets in Paradise” spilled the tea on Armie Hammer. Quite a bit, actually. The show, which kicked off in April, dives deep into the lives of the uber-wealthy and those climbing the social ladder in the Cayman Islands. Elizabeth isn’t just in front of the camera; she’s producing, too. So, we get her perspective loud and clear.
“I moved here with my husband and kids three years back,” Elizabeth shared in the first episode. But then, she dropped the bomb about the so-called Cayman Curse. It’s this idea that couples who move to the island end up splitting. And guess what? It happened to her and Armie.
They started dating in 2008, tied the knot in 2010, but by 2020, it was over. Their divorce wrapped up three years later. Speaking of splits, Hollywood’s had its fair share, from Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin to Channing Tatum and Jenna Dewan. Drama, drama, drama.
In 2021, Armie found himself in hot water. Accusations flew about graphic texts and even sexual assault. His lawyers said nope to all that. The LA County District Attorney’s Office eventually dropped the charges after a two-year probe. Elizabeth was stunned by the scandal, taking to Instagram to express her heartbreak and confusion.
The show didn’t shy away from the scandal. Armie apologized to Elizabeth for past mistakes but hasn’t commented on the series. And oh, the mentions of Armie in the show? They’re plentiful.
Elizabeth opened up about their very public and scandalous divorce. “Absolute hell,” she called it. Meanwhile, she’s looking ahead, ready for a fresh start on the island. But not everyone’s ready to move on. Cass Lacelle threw some shade, suggesting Elizabeth was quick to jump back into the dating pool post-split.
Courtney McTaggart found herself tangled in rumors of being one of “Armie’s chicks.” She faced nasty messages and outright denial from Elizabeth when confronted. Courtney’s convinced Elizabeth was behind the attacks, pointing to a cryptic email as proof.
Armie’s controversies aren’t new. He’s been stirring the pot since his career started. From graphic DMs to eyebrow-raising comments, he’s been a magnet for backlash. And then there’s the series premiere, ending with a bombshell article in “Air Mail.” Courtney dished on the juicy details, suggesting there’s more to the story involving Elizabeth.
Before the article dropped, Elizabeth’s rep said her focus was on her kids, aiming to protect all parties involved. Armie, in his interview, insisted on consensual relationships, acknowledging his past mistakes and poor treatment of others.
When the tell-all was published, Elizabeth was asked for her thoughts. “No. End of discussion,” she declared. She’s not playing games; she knows her truth. And that’s that.
