Armie Hammer’s Mom Encouraged Him to Get a Vasectomy for His 38th Birthday – Here’s Why

Armie Hammer received a special gift – a vasectomy – from his mother, Dru, on his 38th birthday. On the Monday, Nov. 11, episode of his The Armie HammerTime podcast, the actor, joined by his mom, detailed how the gift came about.

“I call Armie and say, ‘Armie, what would you like for your birthday this year?’ And he says, “I don’t know, maybe money. What ever.’ And I said, ‘I think I’m going to give you a vasectomy,'” Dru recounted.

Hammer then walked his audience through the procedure he underwent.

“I go to a doctor’s office and say, ‘I’m here to schedule a vasectomy,'” he recalled, noting that he was asked to fill out paperwork and see a doctor. According to the Nocturnal Animals actor, the doctor tried to talk him out of the procedure, but he was confident in his decision because he was already the father of “two beautiful children,” he said.

For those who don’t know, Hammer shares daughter Harper, 9, and son Ford, 7, with ex-wife Elizabeth Chambers.

“I don’t want more children. I’m ready to go,” Hammer reportedly told the doctor.

After the consultation, when Hammer was asked to choose his preferred payment method — insurance or credit card — he shocked the receptionist by informing her that his mother would take care of the bill.

“She was looking down and she (looked up) and said, ‘What?’ And I’m like, ‘Yeah, my mom gave me that as a birthday present,'” Hammer continued.

Hammer first announced his return to the spotlight with the podcast in October, after his Hollywood career nearly ended amid numerous sexual misconduct allegations. In a video message on Instagram at the time, the actor said he was ready to return after a four-year hiatus and, for his initial comeback project, planned to chronicle his journey of trying to put his life back together place.

The social media star is set to return to the big screen in Travis Mills’ Western Frontier Crucible, although details about his role remain under wraps.
