Comedian and actor Amy Schumer has publicly addressed swirling rumors suggesting her marriage to husband Chris Fischer is in trouble. Schumer took to her Instagram account this week to directly confront the speculation, which intensified after she was seen not wearing her wedding ring.
Schumer's Social Media Clarifications
On Monday, Schumer posted a since-deleted Instagram reel where she tackled the rumors head-on. She began by discussing her recent weight loss, then moved to the topic of her missing wedding band. "I never wear jewelry," Schumer wrote, offering a simple explanation for the observation that fueled the divorce talk.
She then directly addressed the state of her union with Fischer, a chef she married in 2018. "Whatever ends up happening with me and Chris has nothing to do with weight loss or autism," she stated, referencing Fischer's autism spectrum disorder diagnosis, which was publicly revealed in 2019. Striking a hopeful but realistic tone, she added, "Fingers crossed we make it through. He's the best."
A Follow-Up and a Source's Insight
Schumer doubled down on her jewelry-related explanation with a humorous follow-up post on Wednesday. She shared an old Instagram story featuring a photo from her 2007 appearance on "Last Comic Standing," where she was wearing a necklace. She jokingly captioned it, "Last time I wore jewelry."
The couple, who share a son named Gene born in 2019, have faced public scrutiny before. A source close to Schumer spoke to People magazine in November 2024 about the marriage. "They are both committed to the relationship," the insider said, adding, "They're privately working through normal issues that couples in long-term marriages have."
A History of Public Support
Despite the current rumors, Schumer has publicly celebrated her marriage in the past. As recently as February 2025, the "Inside Amy Schumer" star marked their seventh wedding anniversary with a playful post. She shared a wedding day photo with the caption: "Seven years ago we signed a prenup and haven't had to utilize it! Love you babe."
The pair were last seen together publicly at the premiere of "Room To Move" during the Tribeca Festival in New York City on June 11, 2025. For now, Schumer's messages indicate a couple navigating the challenges of any long-term relationship while firmly dismissing external narratives linking their personal journey to other factors like health or diagnosis.
