Armie Hammer's Accuser, Effie Angelova, Says He Is 'Causing Her More Trauma' With His Interviews

Effie Angelova, the first woman who publicly accused Armie Hammer of rape in 2021, has condemned his attempts to relaunch his career, claiming he is "undeserving of a platform."

Angelova's allegations include violent abuse and disturbing messages from Hammer, who denies the claims and characterizes their relationship as consensual.

Despite his public denials, Effie Angelova claims Armie Hammer's actions have left her with C-PTSD and that his continued media presence is re-traumatizing and harmful to his victims.

In an interview with the Daily Mail, Angelova condemned Hammer's efforts to revive his Hollywood career, proclaiming, "Rapists don't deserve a platform."

Hammer and Angelova were involved in a four-year affair starting in 2016. In 2021, Angelova accused the actor of violently abusing and raping her in 2017.

Throughout their relationship, the "Call Me By Your Name" actor allegedly sent her hundreds of disturbing texts detailing violent fantasies, including one where he claimed, "I am 100% a cannibal."

Now, three years later, Hammer has resurfaced with a series of media interviews addressing the accusations.

Angelova claims these interviews have re-traumatized her, causing insomnia and nausea. She also criticized Hammer's socialite mother, Dru, for defending her son, calling it "disgusting" and labeling her an "enabler."

While speaking to the news outlet, Angelova stated, "Armie is a rapist and society needs to stop forgiving rape and stop welcoming rapists back. He is depraved and sick in the head."

"He has not apologized to me. He has not taken accountability for everything he's done to me. He should stop lying and victim-blaming, and apologize and go away," Angelova added.

Angelova publicly accused Hammer in January 2021 of rape and "other acts of violence," sparking a scandal that led multiple women to come forward with similar allegations, which effectively derailed his acting career.

However, Hammer recently reappeared in public interviews, including one with Piers Morgan, where he addressed the cannibalism allegations.

In the interview, Hammer stated, "You know what you have to do to be a cannibal? You have to have actually eaten somebody," confirming that he has never consumed human flesh.

He also denied abusing the women who accused him, asserting, "None of those people were hurt or upset because I pushed any sexual boundaries."

Discussing his relationship with Angelova and her allegations, Hammer characterized it as a "very intense affair, very sexually charged, between two people with very similar proclivities and kinks."

He acknowledged that their conversations might appear disturbing when taken out of context. Hammer also suggested that Angelova was more experienced in the world of kink than he was.

In her interview with the publication, Angelova dismissed Hammer's attempts to downplay his alleged assault as mere sexual "fantasies," insisting that his disturbing messages were admissions of actual events.

"He was recounting events that occurred, not just 'fantasies,'" Angelova claimed, adding, "He keeps causing me more trauma and harm with his disgusting video interviews where he smears me and blames me."

During their four-year affair, which began when Angelova was 20, Hammer sent messages like "I need to drink your blood" and "I am 100% a cannibal."

Newly revealed messages and photos show Hammer's dark desires were ever-present, even while he cared for his children, Harper, 9, and Ford, 7.

In one exchange, Hammer transitioned from talking about his son falling asleep on his chest to a string of explicit fantasies: "I can't stop thinking about your mouth. Your lips… How soft the inside of your cheeks feel. Your tongue. I want to lick your f-cking tongue. And your lip… god dammit. I want to bite it so hard."

The one-sided conversation then took a twisted turn, with Hammer asking, "How are you even real? Your brainwaves? Show me."

"I want to see. I want to see everything. I want to see your brain, your blood, your organs, every part of you," Hammer allegedly wrote, per the Daily Mail. "I would definitely bite it. 100%. Or try to f-ck it. Not sure which. Probably both. If I f-cked you into a vegetative state, I'd feed you, wash you, and keep f-cking you."

Angelova also shared a photo showing bruises and red marks on her neck, which she claims resulted from an April 2017 incident where Hammer allegedly assaulted her with a belt.

"The marks around my neck are from the belt he strangulated me with during the attack while I was already incapacitated and sobbing uncontrollably. He'd been raping me," she said. "This is how much he tightened his belt around my neck that it left all these marks."

She revealed that she has been diagnosed with Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (C-PTSD) due to her experiences with Hammer.

"I'm diagnosed with C-PTSD because of him. All the trauma has damaged my physical health, too," she shared. "Do you know what it's like to live with complex post-traumatic stress disorder? It's hell, every day."

Angelova expressed her frustration at seeing Hammer being given a platform while his victims continue to suffer.

"The hardest thing is just the fact that you have to see your rapist's face and your rapist being platformed when the victims are still struggling and suffering from the trauma," Angelova noted. "I'm going to be suffering from this trauma from him for the rest of my life."
