Armie Hammer Almost Missed The Birth Of His Newborn Baby Boy Ford!

Armie Hammer almost missed the birth of his newborn baby boy – Ford Douglas Armand Hammer!

While making an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live on Wednesday (April 12), the 30-year-old actor revealed that he had to undergo surgery for a torn pectoral muscle in January, and had scheduled the procedure to take place after his wife Elizabeth Chambers was due to have their baby.

“Right before she was supposed to have the baby, I tore my pectoral muscle completely off my skeleton. I was in the gym with my brother-in-law, John; we were just working out,” Armie told Jimmy. “Basically, what happened is I tore my pectoral muscle. They went in and they opened it up and they go, ‘Your muscle is free. You don’t live very gently, do you?’ I was like, ‘No, I’ve never been accused of that.’ So, I’m walking around my house – really kind of hobbling – and my arm doesn’t work. It’s really kind of a sad thing. And my wife finally goes, ‘You know what? Just go get the surgery. Honestly, you’re not doing anybody any favors.’”

“So I go and get the surgery after she’s due, but she was was a little late with the baby,” Armie continued. “I go in for the surgery and then we’re thinking, ‘Now I’ve had the surgery; I’ll be able to help.’ But really, what happened was, I go in for the surgery and then I wake up in another hospital and all of a sudden my wife is having the baby. You know, ’cause I’m on medication and all that.”

FYI: Armie is wearing a Salvatore Ferragamo suit during the interview.
