Reports are rife that Los Angeles District Attorney's Office is probing claims of sexual abuse made against actor Armie Hammer. A publication has confirmed that Los Angeles Police Department has already handed over the case to the DA, who has already started reviewing it.

"I can confirm that the LAPD has presented a case regarding Armie Hammer to the LADA. The matter is currently under review," &nbsp;DA rep Tiffiny Blacknell told CNN on Monday.

It is to be noted that the DA rep didn't specify which complaint was being reviewed, however, it's known that Hammer's ex-girlfriend Effie Angelova made some shocking sexual abuse allegations against the Social Network star during a March 2021 press conference with attorney Gloria Allred by her side. She accused him of "violently" raping her and abusing her "mentally, emotionally and sexually" in 2017.

The controversy began when a woman who says she had an intimate relationship with the actor created an account on Instagram to share gruesome details of the bizarre sexual interactions she claims she had with him. Since then several other women, who claim to be his ex-partners, have come forward to accuse him of sexual misconduct and abuse.

The 36-year-old&nbsp;has denied criminal wrongdoing and has not been charged in any case, as of now. Through an attorney, he previously&nbsp;conveyed to the media&nbsp;that his interactions with Angelova during their four-year relationship, and other women, have been "completely consensual, discussed and agreed upon in advance, and mutually participatory".

"These assertions about Mr Hammer are patently untrue. Any interactions with this person, or any partner of his, were completely consensual in that they were fully discussed, agreed upon, and mutually participatory,” the attorney said. "The stories being perpetuated in the media are a misguided attempt to present a one-sided narrative with the goal of tarnishing Mr Hammer’s reputation, and communications from the individuals involved prove that."

In February 2023, he gave his first interview since the cannibalism scandal tanked his career. While speaking to writer James Kirchick of Graydon Carter's Air Mail, the actor claimed that he contemplated suicide amid the backlash.

He said, "I just walked out into the ocean and swam out as far as I could and hoped that either I drowned, or was hit by a boat, or eaten by a shark. Then I realized that my kids were still on shore and that I couldn’t do that to my kids."

This is what Timothee Chalamet has to say on rape allegations against Armie Hammer

Elizabeth Chambers is &nbsp;focussing on herself and her children as her estranged husband, Armie Hammer, faces a rape allegation. Chambers filed for divorce from Hammer in July last year. &nbsp;

The 38-year-old star answered a question from a fan on her Instagram Story about her quieter presence on social media in the last few weeks. 
 
"Focusing on healing, my babes and work," said Chambers, who shares 6-year-old daughter Harper Grace and 4-year-old son Ford Douglas Armand, with Hammer.Chambers added, "A lot I`ve wanted to share but hasn`t felt right (at the moment)", seemingly referring to the allegations against Hammer that surfaced last month. 
 
After months of swirling accusations and rumours about the `Call Me By Your Name` actor, a woman named Effie, who has not publicly revealed her last name, came forward publicly to accuse Hammer of rape last month. 
 
Appearing in a press conference with attorney Gloria Allred on March 18, Effie - the woman behind the Instagram account House of Effie that first anonymously shared allegations against Hammer --accused him of sexual assault in a four-hour incident that she says occurred in 2017. 
 
Effie further accused Hammer of "mentally, emotionally and sexually" abusing her during their on-and-off four-year relationship. At the time of their affair, Hammer was married to Chambers. 
 
As per reports, hours after the press conference, a spokesperson for the LAPD confirmed Hammer is the suspect in an investigation opened on February 3.In a statement previously provided to the outlet, the 34-year-old actor`s lawyer Andrew Brettler denied the rape allegation and maintained that the actor`s relationship with Effie was "completely consensual, discussed and agreed upon in advance, and mutually participatory." 
 
Weeks before Effie`s allegations, Chambers commented on the rumours about Hammer, including affairs during their time together, in an Instagram post."For weeks, I`ve been trying to process everything that has transpired. I am shocked, heartbroken, and devastated. Heartbreak aside, I am listening and will continue to listen and educate myself on these delicate matters. I didn`t realize how much I didn`t know," Chambers wrote. 
 
"I support any victim of assault or abuse and urge anyone who has experienced this pain to seek the help she or he needs to heal. At this time, I will not be commenting further on this matter," she continued. 
 
"My sole focus and attention will continue to be on our children, on my work and on healing during this incredibly difficult time. 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," she added.&nbsp;
