- Elizabeth Chambers said she and ex-husband Armie Hammer were counseled by famed psychotherapist Esther Perel.
- The pair did couple's therapy with Perel for most of their 10-year marriage, Chambers told Elle.
Elizabeth Chambers has revealed that she and her ex-husband Armie Hammer were counseled by famed psychotherapist and relationship expert Esther Perel for most of their decade-long marriage.
"[Esther] always said heartbreak is literally worse than a heroin addiction, and I think about that a lot," Chambers said of the host of the popular podcast "Where Should We Begin?" in a new interview with Elle magazine.
Chambers and Hammer got married in 2010 and had two children together. They announced their split in 2020.
"You can give, you can love, you can be there for someone, but you also need to hold people accountable for their actions," Chambers told Elle.
In 2021, allegations of sexual violence and cannibalism first surfaced against Hammer, collapsing his acting career.
"I was learning things as the public was," Chambers told Elle. "I was like, 'There are no words. What the fuck?'"
In commenting on the end of their marriage, Chambers told the magazine: "My heart was broken in nine million pieces, and I still drove him to the airport."
Last week, Hammer broke his silence on the accusations, which he has denied.
