In a move that marks the legal conclusion of a high-profile Hollywood partnership, Amy Schumer officially filed for divorce from her husband, Chris Fischer, on January 6, 2026. The filing, submitted to a New York County court, comes just weeks after the couple publicly announced their separation and roughly one month before what would have been their eighth wedding anniversary.
The 44-year-old comedian first confirmed the split on December 12, 2025, through a candid Instagram post. Using her signature blend of humor and directness, Schumer shared a photo of the couple on a New York City subway, writing, “Chris and I have made the difficult decision to end our marriage after 7 years.” She was quick to dispel rumors regarding the cause of the breakup, jokingly clarifying that the split was not due to her recent weight loss or Fischer’s career as a James Beard Award-winning chef.
