Armie Hammer has emphatically denied allegations from yet another one of his ex-girlfriends, who claimed that he branded her and talked about “consuming her”.
Paige Lorenze alleged that Hammer etched the letter “A” into her groin area with a sharp knife during sex.
“I froze as he smiled at his work,” she told the Daily Mail. “He then said the cut was not deep enough, even though it was about an inch – the whole tip of the blade.
“He said he wanted to collect a kitchen knife to make it bigger, but then as it bled, he started licking it.”
Chillingly, she also alleged that Hammer talked of having her ribs removed so he could barbecue them. Hammer has vehemently denied all her claims.
“These assertions about Mr Hammer are patently untrue,” his lawyer said.
“Any interactions with this person, or any partner of his, were completely consensual in that they were fully discussed, agreed upon, and mutually participatory.
“The stories being perpetuated in the media are a misguided attempt to present a one-sided narrative with the goal of tarnishing Mr Hammer’s reputation, and communications from the individuals involved prove that.”
Armie Hammer’s ex-girlfriend says relationship was ‘real-life 50 Shades‘.
Paige Lorenze reportedly dated Armie Hammer for two months in 2020. It was a relationship that she described as “a real-life 50 Shades of Grey without the love”.
“I want Armie to address his demons, see the pain and trauma that he has caused me and other women,” she told the newspaper.
“He told me there’s a whole community that will do this stuff, that it was not criminal. He really thought that his fantasies were normal behaviour in the BDSM, non-normative, sexual kink community.
“I thought that this is what it was. I thought I was safe. You can be just as traumatised by consensual sex. It’s unacceptable that he coerces women into agreeing to let him hurt them.”
She also claimed to Page Six that Hammer’s sexual playbook was one of building up her “trust to ease [her] into darker things” such as “consuming her”.
“He would compliment me and tell me things that would make me feel on top of the world,” she said.
“[He] knew what he was doing and knew how to get me to do these things. He was smart about it,” Lorenze added, alleging that the Call Me By Your Name star would encourage her to “show off” her bruises.

As well as these, Hammer has denied a number of other allegations that he has a cannibalism fetish.
Such stories have mounted since unverified messages (that he denies are real) purported to show Hammer say he is “100 per cent a cannibal” and “desired to drink your blood”.
The claims reached a fever point earlier this month when Hammer announced that he has dropped out of action-comedy Shotgun Wedding and his role will now be recast.
He did so to protect his family, he said, while shrugging the “bulls**t claims” as “vicious and spurious online attacks”.
