During the conversation, Armie continued to deny that he was a cannibal.
“You know what you have to do to be a cannibal? You have to have actually eaten someone,” he told Piers Morgan, via Page Six. The star stressed that he had never done that.
On the topic of his relationship with Effie Angelova, who accused him of sexual assault and abuse, he described it as “a very intense affair, very sexually charged, between two people with very similar proclivities and kinks.”
“Any of those conversations that we [he and Angelova] had inside of that relationship, when you take them outside of that context and put them into broad daylight, it doesn’t look so good,” he acknowledged.
Armie said that he “was introduced to” a lot of kinks that he enjoyed by Effie, saying, “She had more experience in the area.”
“You know, different people have different sexual fantasies. And there’s a very broad spectrum of sexuality, and people are allowed to engage with their own sexuality however it fits them and what they do,” he said.
He seemingly acknowledged that cannibalism role-play played a part in their relationship saying that it “was just sort of born out of a desire, to sort of like, ‘I want you so completely,’ and ‘I want you so totally’ that it’s almost like ‘I want to eat you.’”
The actor spoke about some of the other allegations of abuse while talking about another ex, Courtney Vucekovich.
“I will say this, there are people that I left who were hurt and who were upset. None of those people were hurt or upset because I pushed any sexual boundaries that they weren’t interested in exploring or trying,” he said.
He even addressed accusations that he branded his ex, Paige Lorenze, implying that the accusation was taken out of context.
“I wouldn’t say brand. No … There was a scenario that we talked about beforehand, that we had discussed where, you know, I would basically take a little, tiny point and just kind of trace the letter ‘A,’” he claimed. “Just like the tip of a small knife … I mean, there wasn’t even blood in the situation. It was more like a scrape. It’s along the lines of couples getting their own initials tattooed on each other.”
When the topic turned to his time with Elizabeth, Armie said that he “was faithful for a long time” but eventually cheated.
He said that he was involved with “probably more [people] than the average person would be exposed to” while they were together.
“I wouldn’t say many hundreds,” he continued. “No, you know, I would say enough.”
The star said that this point in his life “was a dark, painful time.”
“It’s also something that I have to accept is on me. I had an affair on my wife. Obviously, I’m not the first person in the history of Hollywood to do that, but I did it, and it’s less than becoming behavior that I have to own,” he said.
The full interview will air on Friday (July 19).
If you missed it, Armie also recently opened up about working as a timeshare salesman after the allegations.
