Armie Hammer’s wife defends him!
Following the backlash, the mother of two insisted that their son only had his father’s toes in his mouth for a few seconds.
Armie Hammer’s wife, Elizabeth Chambers Hammer set the record straight following backlash over a video which her husband shared online, in which their two-and-a-half-year-old son Ford Douglas Armand was seen briefly sucking on the actor’s toes.
“This happened for a solid 7 minutes,” the actor wrote alongside the clip that has since been deleted, adding the joking hash tag “foot fetish on fleek.”
People reports that the video set off a big stir online, and while some social media users brushed it off as just kids being kids, many others criticised the actor for sharing it.
“TOTALLY NOT FUNNY … inappropriate,” wrote one, while another added, “So gross. Why post it and let it go on for 7 minutes!!”
Following the backlash, the mother of two insisted that their son only had his father’s toes in his mouth for a few seconds.
“It wasn’t seven minutes… more like five seconds,” she wrote, explaining that Ford’s behaviour was a family joke. She did however admit that “sharing the video on Instagram was def not the best move on A’s part.”
On a final note, Chambers Hammer added, “Our children’s safety and well-being is always our first priority.”
