Schumer, boyfriend Hanisch call it quits
“Snatched” star Amy Schumer and her boyfriend, Ben Hanisch, have broken up after dating for a year and a half.
“Amy and Ben have ended their relationship after thoughtful consideration and remain friends,” a Schumer representative told People, which first reported the news Tuesday night.
The couple’s relationship began in late 2015 and continued into awards season as the comic-actress was enjoying the toast-of-the-town status thanks to the success of “Inside Amy Schumer” and “Trainwreck.”
“Everyone’s treating it like I’ve never had a boyfriend before,” Schumer told the Los Angeles Times in January 2016 at the Golden Globes, where she was sharing a table with actress Jennifer Lawrence and “Trainwreck” producer-director Judd Apatow. “And after everything this year, like, that’s what you’re talking about? OK.”
Hanisch brought out the “awws” a month later with an Instagram post marking their one-year anniversary.
“A year ago I met the love of my life,” he wrote.
On Tuesday, Hanisch had no comment on the breakup when he was contacted by Radar Online.
