According to PEOPLE, the comedian-actress submitted her divorce papers in New York on Tuesday.
She previously announced the split, writing, “Blah blah blah Chris and I have made the difficult decision to end our marriage after 7 years. 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.”
Schumer further shared that the break-up was “amicable and all love and respect.”
“Family forever,” she added.
Speculation about the couple’s relationship started in late 2025, when Schumer posted a picture praising Hulu’s divorce lawyer show All’s Fair. “Chris and I are still married,” she declared.
Days later, a source revealed to PEOPLE that Schumer and Fischer were having typical marriage struggles. “They’re privately working through normal issues that couples in long-term marriages have. They are both committed to the relationship.”
In a social media post on Dec. 1, Schumer wrote, “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.”
