Amy Schumer isn’t one to shy away from what some may consider to be an unconventional Valentine’s Day celebration amid her ongoing divorce.
“Give yourself all the love today,” Schumer, 44, wrote via her Instagram Stories on Saturday, February 14, sharing a selfie of the actress posing for the camera in a makeshift “crying corner.”
“Happy vday,” she added, showing off her “crying corner” complete with tissues, at least two water bottles and an appropriate “crying corner” decoration.
On December 12, 2025, Schumer announced her and husband Chris Fischer had decided to call it quits.
“Blah blah blah Chris and I have made the difficult decision to end our marriage after 7 years,” Schumer wrote via Instagram at the time. “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 pair share son Gene, who they welcomed in May 2019.)
Schumer added, “Amicable and all love and respect! Family forever.”
Schumer officially filed for divorce in at the beginning of the new year, submitting the necessary paperwork on January 6 with the New York Supreme Court, according to documents obtained by Us Weekly at the time. The case type is listed as “matrimonial — uncontested,” per the filing.
Rumors first surfaced in November 2025 that Schumer and Fischer were headed for a divorce. (The pair sold their Brooklyn, New York, townhouse for a reported $11 million that same month.) Still, Schumer sang her spouse’s praises in early December of that same year while reflecting on her personal 2021 endometriosis surgery.
(According to the Mayo Clinic, endometriosis is a chronic health condition in which cells similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside of the uterus, often resulting in chronic pain, irregular periods, infertility and more.)
“Just found this from years ago. My trust self. Chris dug it,” Schumer wrote via Instagram at the time, captioning a throwback video. “I’ve been through a lot with endometriosis. Tell someone you love they shouldn’t have heavy excruciating periods. @endofound donate along with me today.”
Hours later, Schumer announced the split.
“Amy still adores Chris, just not romantically. He’s a great guy and an even better father,” a source exclusively told Us at the time, adding that “there wasn’t some big, scandalous catalyst for their split.”
“It just happened slowly over time, and they agreed their relationship was no longer what it once was,” the insider continued.
The source added that the estranged duo have been “figuring out” what their split will look like for “months,” especially in regards to their son.
“The goal is to make it as smooth of a transition as possible so as not to disturb their son’s day-to-day,” the insider explained. “One of the many things they see eye to eye on is Gene and his happiness coming first.”
Despite the major life change, the source also told Us that Schumer — who recently revealed her 50-pound weight loss — is “in a good place and even cracks jokes about their separation,” adding that it has “been an easy adjustment so far.”
