HOW THE EXES MET

Armie Hammer and Elizabeth Chambers first met in 2006 through a mutual friend, Tyler Ramsey. Hammer was hosting an "adventure day" in Los Angeles, and the friend had Chambers join the outing. She agreed, with the condition to drive the rest of the group.

The moment she showed up to pick them up, Hammer became smitten. The television personality once admitted it was love at first sight for them. Unfortunately, Chambers had a boyfriend at the time and hence could not act on her feelings.

They ended up as friends for the next two years. In 2008, the actor professed his love for her and convinced his to-be wife to break up with her then-boyfriend to be with him. She did, and thus their romance began.

THEIR LOVE STORY

The pair started dating in 2008 and became engaged shortly after, following Hammer's blunt proposal. Armie Hammer and Elizabeth Chambers tied the knot on May 22, 2010, with their wedding featuring on the January 2011 issue of Town & Country Magazine.

Four years into their marriage, the couple welcomed their first child, Harper Grace Hammer, born in 2014. Their second child, Ford Armand Douglas Hammer, arrived in 2017.

CHAMBERS AND HAMMER'S DIVORCE

Just when the world couldn't have enough of their romance and cute parenting tactics, Chambers and Hammer announced their split. The couple went public with the news of their divorce in July 2020, citing irreconcilable differences.

Following the separation, Hammer pushed for joint custody of the children, who currently live with their mom. Chambers has since dedicated her time to doting on her kids even as they attain schooling age.

The former couple has remained estranged amid the divorce proceedings, watching their one-time shared love crumble to shreds.
