The Trainwreck star has announced that she and her husband, chef Chris Fischer, are divorcing after seven years of marriage.
"Blah blah blah Chris and I have made the difficult decision to end our marriage after seven years," Schumer wrote in an Instagram post on Friday. "We love each other very much and will continue to focus on raising our son. We would appreciate people respecting our privacy at this time."
The comedian went on to shut down speculation about the split, calling out her recent weight loss as well as the success of Fischer's The Beetlebung Farm Cookbook, which won the 2016 James Beard Award for American Cooking.
"Blah blah blah not because I dropped some lbs and thought I could bag s basket and not because he’s a hot [James Beard] award winning chef who can still pull some hot tail," she wrote. "Amicable and all love and respect! Family forever."
Entertainment Weekly has reached out to representatives for Schumer and Fischer for additional comment.
Schumer and Fischer were first romantically linked in 2017. They married in 2017, and welcomed their son, Gene, in 2019.
The comedian said that Fischer is on the autism spectrum in her 2021 stand-up special Amy Schumer Growing. Earlier this month, she hinted that her relationship might be on the rocks, but clarified that the couple's status had no connection to that diagnosis.
"Whatever ends up happening with me and Chris has nothing to do with weight loss or autism," she wrote on her Instagram Stories on Dec. 1. "Fingers crossed we make it through he's the best."

In that same post, Schumer candidly reflected on her 50-pound weight loss. "I had a disease that makes your face extremely puffy that can kill you, but the internet caught it, and the disease has cleared," she wrote in reference to her 2024 Cushing syndrome diagnosis.
