Elizabeth Chambers Clarifies Allegations Against Costar Courtney McTaggart in Armie Hammer Scandal

Elizabeth Chambers has finally decided to talk about the rumors that she anonymously accused her Grand Cayman: Secrets in Paradise costar Courtney McTaggart of being Armie Hammer‘s mistress.

In an exclusive clip from the upcoming episode on Tuesday, April 30, Elizabeth, 41, and Courtney, 34, try to resolve their issues. Courtney is determined to address Elizabeth about the accusations of her involvement with Armie, 37, before his divorce.

Courtney received messages on Instagram from fake accounts accusing her of being a sugar baby and questioning her relationship with Armie Hammer. She believes that Elizabeth Chambers was behind these messages and has evidence to support her claim.

During a confessional, a producer asked Elizabeth if she had ever harassed Courtney on social media. Elizabeth denied ever harassing Courtney and also denied using fake accounts to do so. She stated that there was no chance she had asked friends or family to harass Courtney on her behalf.

Elizabeth firmly ends the discussion with an offscreen crew member. This conversation follows Courtney's accusation that Elizabeth was spreading rumors about her.

Courtney McTaggart believed that Elizabeth Chambers mistook her for one of Armie Hammer's romantic partners, as she mentioned during the series premiere. This misunderstanding led to Courtney receiving unpleasant messages from fake Instagram accounts.

Courtney described the false version of events as "disgusting." She confronted the person and felt disrespected when she was looked at like trash. The person denied knowing anything about what Courtney was talking about.

During her conversation with the cameras, Courtney suggested that she had evidence to support her accusation.

Courtney remembered the first screenshot she received from Elizabeth to a mutual friend. In the message, Elizabeth mentioned seeing a picture of a hairless cat and realizing the connection to their friend. It all clicked for Elizabeth at that moment.

Shortly after, Courtney received a message on Instagram questioning her involvement with Armie Hammer at Over the Edge restaurant. The message implied that Courtney was at a Halloween party with Elizabeth Chambers and insinuated a relationship with Armie, even mentioning BDSM practices in Cayman. The sender accused Courtney of being a sugar baby to unsavory men.

Courtney believed that Elizabeth orchestrated these attacks, pointing out that one of the fake accounts used an email starting with "ExxxxxxxX." This was significant as it mirrored the same number of stars that would spell out "Elizabeth X." Courtney questioned Elizabeth's intelligence in carrying out these actions.

Elizabeth and Armie were married for more than ten years before deciding to go their separate ways in July 2020. They have two children together, Harper, who is 9, and Ford, who is 7. The divorce was officially completed three years after their split. In 2021, Armie faced allegations of sending explicit messages to multiple women, detailing disturbing sexual fantasies such as rape, mutilation, and cannibalism.

Armie's attorneys denied the accusations of sexual assault against the actor, which were made at the time. In June 2023, the Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office announced that after a two-year investigation, they would not be pursuing charges related to the sexual assault allegations.

Elizabeth shared her feelings on Instagram in February 2021, expressing shock, heartbreak, and devastation over the scandal. She mentioned that she is committed to listening, educating herself, and understanding the sensitive issues better, admitting that there was much she didn't know.

Even though Elizabeth attempted to move on from the drama, she couldn't escape it on the Freeform reality show. During a confessional, she surprised viewers by choosing not to discuss certain aspects of the situation.

"No. End of discussion," she firmly stated in a recent episode. "Only I know the truth. I'm not playing that game. I lived it, I know it. So, unless you were there, you don't know."

In an exclusive interview with Us, Elizabeth shared her thoughts on her time on Grand Cayman: Secrets in Paradise.

This show is not a reflection of my reality. My day-to-day life consists of flying in and out for my other show with my kids. However, I did have fun participating in it. The important lesson I took away is to always stay true to yourself and avoid saying or doing things that you may regret. It's not always easy to see this on screen, but it's crucial to know yourself, set boundaries, and remain authentic.

"Grand Cayman: Secrets in Paradise" airs on Freeform on Tuesdays at 9:30 p.m. ET. You can also stream it on Hulu the following day.

Editor's P/S:

The allegations surrounding Elizabeth Chambers and Courtney McTaggart are a complex and disheartening tale of misunderstandings, accusations, and the toll it takes on personal lives. It is clear that both women are deeply affected by the situation, with Courtney believing Elizabeth is behind the anonymous harassment and Elizabeth vehemently denying any involvement. The evidence presented by Courtney, such as the Instagram messages and the email starting with "ExxxxxxxX," certainly raises questions about Elizabeth's potential role in the attacks. However, without concrete proof, it is difficult to determine
