After more than 7 years of marriage, Amy Schumer has officially filed for divorce from her husband, Chris Fischer.
Although, according to documents filed in the New York court, the request was officially filed yesterday, Amy Schumer made the news of the separation public on December 12 through an Instagram post, following speculation online about the state of their marriage.
"Chris and I have made the difficult decision to end our marriage after 7 years," she wrote. "We love each other dearly and will continue to focus on raising our son. We would greatly appreciate your respecting our privacy during this time."
However, she emphasized that the separation is amicable, which was also confirmed by sources close to the couple.
After a series of rumors circulating about their relationship, in December of last year, Amy Schumer said that whatever was going on between her and Chris Fischer had nothing to do with her weight loss or her husband's autism.
In a post dated January 4, looking ahead to 2026, the actress wrote that this year will be focused on self-care and self-love, inviting people to value their health, family, and friends, and move forward "without regrets, only with love."
