Perez Hilton weighed in on the troubled marriage between Amy Schumer and Chris Fischer, suggesting there was “not much hope” left for the couple “to work it out.” In a December 3 article on his website, Hilton broke down the context behind the pair’s marital struggles, citing from a People Magazine report published a day earlier.
According to the report, a source close to Amy Schumer and Chris Fischer said the couple had been dealing with longstanding issues. The insider explained that the pair were no longer trying to repair the relationship but were instead focused on planning a respectful separation.
“They’ve been having issues for ages, and my understanding is all they are doing now is working out a conscious uncoupling plan,” the source told People (as cited by Hilton).
The report also emphasized that even as they planned to go their separate ways, Schumer and Fischer remained focused on one matter above all else: their son, Gene.
“There is zero chance of salvaging the marriage…but Amy also wants to have the most amicable co-parenting relationship possible with Chris, so they are sorting out what will work best,” Hilton added, citing what the insider had said.
Reflecting on these remarks in his December 3 article, Perez Hilton drew attention to the “nearly seven years” long relationship between Amy Schumer and Chris Fischer and how the insider’s comments signaled a definitive end.
He then compared Amy Schumer and Chris Fischer’s approach to that of Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow, who famously introduced the term “conscious uncoupling” during their 2014 split. It was a model centered on mutual respect, emotional closure, and prioritizing their children.
Hilton suggested that Amy Schumer and Chris Fischer might be taking cues from Martin and Paltrow’s separation style:
“Oof. Sounds like they’re taking inspo from Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow‘s breakup playbook with the ‘conscious uncoupling,’” Hilton remarked.
He also noted that the news felt especially disheartening given Schumer’s recent Instagram post, where she expressed optimism about overcoming marital challenges.
Amy Schumer addresses speculations about her marriage to Chris Fischer, reveals details about her health

Comedian Amy Schumer recently broke her silence on ongoing speculation surrounding her marriage to chef Chris Fischer.
Rumors of trouble first surfaced in 2023 after Schumer spent the entire summer in Europe with Jerry and Jessica Seinfeld while Fischer remained in the United States. Though the couple reunited later that summer on Martha’s Vineyard and were believed to be working on their relationship, online speculation continued to circulate.
According to a December 2 report by E! News, Schumer responded to speculations about the state of her marriage through a now-deleted Instagram post shared on December 1.
In that post, she addressed assumptions about her relationship with Chris Fischer and pushed back against public commentary involving her husband’s autism diagnosis.
Schumer clarified that any changes or developments in her marriage were not tied to her appearance or to Fischer’s neurodivergence. She also expressed hope that the couple would “make it through,” reflecting her affection for Fischer.
“Whatever ends up happening with me and Chris, has nothing to do with weight loss or autism…Fingers crossed we make it through, he’s the best,” she wrote ( as per E! News).
Schumer’s remarks surfaced shortly after fans noticed she had not been wearing her wedding ring in recent Instagram posts, which led to speculation about the couple’s status.
In the same deleted post, Schumer didn’t share much detail about her relationship with Chris Fischer. However, she addressed her physical transformation, offering a detailed and candid explanation for her significant weight loss.
“I never wear jewelry…I didn’t lose 30lbs, I lost 50. Not to look hot, which does feel fun and temporary. I did it to survive. I had a disease that makes your face extremely puffy and can kill you, but the internet caught it, and that disease has cleared,” she said.
She further explained that the condition was related to Cushing Syndrome, which she first publicly discussed in 2024.
Addressing public reactions to her changed appearance, Schumer added:
“Sorry for whatever feeling it’s giving you that I lost weight…I’ve had plastic surgery over the years, and I use Mounjaro.”
Schumer also shared that she was now “pain free” and finally able to keep up physically with her young son, Gene.
She also expressed relief at no longer being limited by her symptoms and even invited followers to ask her more about how she had been feeling, adding that she would be “happy to share more” about her health journey.
Despite ongoing speculation about trouble in their relationship, Amy Schumer and Chris Fischer, who married on February 13, 2018, and have now been together for seven years, remain publicly united.
While Schumer has addressed some of the rumors, Fischer has yet to make any official comments.
