"At this time, I will not be commenting further on this matter. My sole focus and attention will continue to be on our children, on my work and on healing during this incredibly difficult time," she wrote. "Thank you for all of the love and support, and thank you in advance for your continued kindness, respect, and consideration for our children and me as we find ways to move forward."

Armie Hammer's Estranged Wife Elizabeth Chambers Comments on 'Cannibalism' Project
View StoryChambers did not specifically mention Hammer by name, nor any of the allegations against him. In recent weeks, Hammer has been accused of sending sexually explicit direct messages to several women that included cannibal fantasies. The messages have yet to be verified by any news outlet.
In the wake of the reports, Hammer dropped out of the romantic comedy "Shotgun Wedding" with Jennifer Lopez and a Paramount+ project called "The Offer."
When news of him exiting "Shotgun Wedding" surfaced, Hammer released a statement.
"I'm not responding to these bull---- claims, but in light of the vicious and spurious online attacks against me, I cannot in good conscience now leave my children for 4 months to shoot a film in the Dominican Republic," he told TMZ. "Lionsgate is supporting me in this and I’m grateful to them for that."
Hammer and Chambers share daughter Harper Grace, six, and son Ford Douglas Armand, four. The pair married in 2010 and announced their split in July 2020.
