Amy Schumer reveals that her husband, Chris Fischer, is suffering from an Autism Spectrum Disorder

Actress Amy Schumer becomes personal in her new special comedy, explaining that her husband, Chris Fischer, has an autism spectrum disorder.

"I knew from the beginning that my husband's brain was a little different from mine," Schumer said in "Amy Schumer Growing," which began airing on Netflix on Tuesday. "I have to start all over again because I really want to do it right because I like it a lot."

"My husband was diagnosed with what was formerly known as Asperger's. He has a spectrum disorder of autism. He's in the spectrum, "said Schumer, by Entertainment Tonight." And there were early signs. "

ASDs are usually diagnosed in young children, but adults can also be. Symptoms can be overlooked or confused with other disorders, according to WebMD.

"Once diagnosed, I realized how funny it was, because all the features that show that he's part of the spectrum are all the reasons I fell madly in love with him." Said Schumer E! New. "It's the truth, he says everything he has in mind, he keeps it so real, he does not care about social norms or what you expect from him.

According to Yahoo Entertainment in the segment above, Schumer recounted a moment when she fell while she was walking with Fischer. "It sort of froze and became a beacon, opening and closing the mouth. I remember that I lay on the floor and was not angry. I just thought, "huh." Lotta "huh" moments, you know? "

In an Instagram released Monday, Schumer called her husband "brave and handsome" for speaking openly about himself and their marriage.

Schumer and Fischer, a chef, were married in February 2018. Schumer announced that she was pregnant in October.
