Amy Schumer made a New Year’s Eve joke about kicking off 2026 as a single mother-of-one following her December 12 separation from husband Chris Fischer.
The 44-year-old comedian – who boasts 16.5 million social media followers – crossed her eyes while eating spaghetti and wisecracked: ‘Who’s kissing this at midnight?’
‘Happy New Year! #sensualphoto’

The Midi Health investor – who underwent liposuction in 2022 – is the skinniest she’s looked in decades thanks to the trendy GLP-1 agonist drug she began taking earlier this year to shrink her 5ft7in frame.
The FDA has only approved three GLP-1 drugs specifically for weight loss – the semaglutide Wegovy, the liraglutide Saxenda and the tirzepatide Zepbound – and the rest are specifically for patients suffering from type 2 diabetes.

Celebrities who’ve admitted to taking the diabetic injectables include Oprah Winfrey, Kathy Bates, Kelly Clarkson, Whoopi Goldberg, Serena Williams, Meghan Trainor, Elon Musk, Rebel Wilson, Chelsea Handler, Sharon Osbourne and Tori Spelling.
But for every celebrity who admits to hopping aboard the Ozempic train, there are many more who’ve remained suspiciously silent while slimming including Selena Gomez, Mindy Kaling, Melissa McCarthy, Khloé Kardashian, Demi Lovato, Lana Del Rey, Christina Aguilera and Ricki Lake.
Rather than finding a date, Schumer third-wheeled it with Only Murders in the Building creator-star Steve Martin and his second wife Anne Stringfield who, at 54, is 26 years younger than him.
Back in 2017-2018, the native New Yorker scored a Tony Award nomination for starring in the Broadway play Meteor Shower, which was written by the legendary comedian.
‘We’ve got bows in different area codes,’ Schumer said of the former New Yorker fact checker who shares 13-year-old daughter Mary with Martin.
The Emmy-winning producer posted two videos of what appeared to be Central Park’s NYRR Midnight Run drone show fireworks display in Manhattan not far from her new home.
On December 1, Schumer clarified that her split from the 45-year-old chef ‘has nothing to do with’ her weight loss or his Asperger’s Syndrome.
‘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,’ the Room to Move producer wrote in a since-deleted Instagram post.
‘Blah blah blah not because I dropped some lbs and thought I could bag a basket ball [sic] player and not because he’s a hot James Beard award winning chef who can still pull some hot tail. Amicable and all love and respect! Family forever.’

Schumer and Fischer still have three frozen embryos to eventually provide a sibling, via surrogate, for their six-year-old son Gene.
The former couple – who sold their Brooklyn townhouse for $11 million on November 25 – originally met through her personal assistant (his sister) just five months before they tied the knot.
‘When Trainwreck came out in 2015 she was on fire with her career, and she was offered lots of roles that she ended up saying no to,’ an insider told the Daily Mail on December 13.
‘Then she got pregnant and did things here and there, but didn’t go full throttle as she would have liked. Now, 10 years on from the Trainwreck high and success that started giving her the career she expected for herself, she’s looking to get that back and see if lightning strikes twice for a major movie career.’
The source admitted: ‘With those career goals and her being a mother, she didn’t focus much on her marriage to make that succeed. But that is the life she was chasing, and the life she has chosen to take into the new year. She’s realized you can’t have everything and the thing that suffered most was her marriage. Now she is trying to figure it all out one day at a time.’
Schumer originally got her start in 2007 coming in fourth place on the fifth season of NBC’s Last Comic Standing.
The Earth to Percy actress is also the second cousin of Senator Chuck Schumer.
