Amy Schumer and Ben Hanisch: It"s Shockingly Over!

Amy Schumer likes to joke about sex.

But there’s nothing funny about the following piece of news regarding her sex life:

The comedian has split from long-time boyfriend Ben Hanisch.

A rep for the actress confirmed the break-up to People Magazine, saying in a very simply statement:

“Amy and Ben have ended their relationship after thoughtful consideration and remain friends.”

Schumer and the Chicago furniture maker had been an item for about a year-and-a-half, although they hadn’t made any public appearances together since January.

Moreover, Schumer hasn’t shared a photo of Hanisch on her Instagram page for several weeks.

Hanisch did not accompany Schumer to the premiere of her latest comedy, Snatched, either.

So an observant fan of the star’s may have seen this split coming.

It’s unclear just when Schumer and her very handsome ex-lover went their separate ways, but the actress told Howard Stern in May 3 interview that they were still getting it on.

She was even asked about the possibility of marriage and responded as follows:

“We are talking about today. I love the idea of committing to someone and making that choice and I want to have a family but right now, we are not in talks.”

Schumer acknowledged at the time that her busy schedule made it difficult to spend a ton of time together as a couple, but tried to spin that situation in a positive way.

“It’s good to have a lot of space,” she told the radio host just two weeks ago.

The comedian and Hanisch met on a dating app around November 2015.

They went public with their relationship in January of the following year when Schumer called Hanisch her “man” after a visit to the White House.

“[He] is the first guy who’s really been my boyfriend,” Schumer went on to tell Marie Claire in August.

She was clearly excited about the relationship for a long time, often discussing it in public and even using the word “love” very often while doing so.

“Things were just really easy with him,” Schumer told People Magazine last summer, adding:

“There were no games, no waiting three days. It was clear and easy. He was so sweet. He didn’t know who I was. He’d heard my name.”

The star also shared at least one story of giving Hanisch a blow job because, come on, this is Amy Schumer.

On their year anniversary last November, both Schumer and Hanisch took to social media to celebrate the occasion.

“We both weren’t looking for a relationship at the time, but something felt right from the very first night we met,” Hanisch wrote on Instagram, adding:

“We both weren’t looking for a relationship at the time, but something felt right from the very first night we met. We ended up spending 6 days in a row together.”

Schumer, meanwhile, went a step further in her Instagram message.

“A year ago today I met the love of my life. Happy anniversary f— face,” she wrote, adding: “#Iwantoseeotherpeople.”

It was a funny joke at the time.

But it’s the painful truth now.

Both Schumer and Hanisch are free to see other people.

Amy Schumer: Is Boyfriend Ben Hanisch Using Her For Fame?

Being rich and famous seems, for the most part, to be pretty damn cool, but the lifestyle is not without its pitfalls.

One of the big ones is that folks might pretend that they like you – or even love you – just so that they can ride your coattails. Some say Courtney Love did it to Kurt Cobain. Tyga is doing to Kylie Jenner as we speak. And now, Ben Hanisch might be doing it to Amy Schumer.

When we first learned that Hanisch and Schumer were dating, it seemed that she was safe from ulterior motives, as Ben was said to be a humble midwestern furniture designer with no Hollywood aspirations.

Shortly thereafter, however, we learned that Ben tried his hand at acting for several years before turning to a less competitive career field.

The guy went hard, too, admitting in a recent interview that he spent “all [his] money on acting classes” before deciding to focus on woodworking.

On its own that wouldn’t be terribly troubling on its own. After all, lots of young folk harbor dreams of hitting it big in show business.

But add to that the fact that after just three months of dating, Ben is publicly declaring his love for Amy and appearing on her Comedy Central sketch show, Inside Amy Schumer (above), and the red flags become a little more apparent.

In a recent interview with Star magazine, a friend of Ben’s, speaking on condition of anonymity, had this to say about the relationship:

“I don’t think it’s far fetched at all that Amy’s showbiz connections could have upped Ben’s interest in her.”

Well put, anonymous source.

There’s certainly no guarantee that Ben wouldn’t be just as smitten with Amy if she worked at Starbucks, but we hope she’s entering the situation with her eyes wide open.

Ben Hanisch: I Love Amy Schumer So Much!

It’s official:

We’re no longer the only ones in love with Amy Schumer.

Just a few weeks after being introduced to the world as the comedian’s boyfriend, Ben Hanisch has used social media to express his extreme affection for the huge star.

“One more from last night because this girl looked insanely gorgeous and I’m in love with her,” Hanisch captioned the above photo, which he shared on Instagram and which features the couple at the Critics’ Choice Awards on Sunday.

Continuing her incredible run, Schumer was awarded the MVP trophy at the event.

Schumer told the world about Hanisch, a 29-year old furniture maker from Chicago, via Instagram last month.

She has not been shy since about making the serious nature of both their relationship and her feelings very clear to the world.

“We’re in love and it’s really exciting,” Schumer told People Magazine earlier this month.

“I’ve never been dating anyone that the public’s really known about. But I like that everyone thinks I’ve been single my whole life.

“They’re like, ‘She got her first boyfriend!’ and I’m like ‘No, I’ve dated people over the years.”

But never like this, apparently.

The Trainwreck actress is currently on tour, but she posted an Instagram image herself on Monday:

“Missing these people on the road,” she penned as a caption to the black and white group photo in which Hanisch stands next to her and holds her hand.

So. Very. Cute.

Ben Hanisch: Dating Amy Schumer!

Amy Schumer talks a lot about sex.

And now we know with whom the comedian is having sex these days.

His name is Ben Hanisch. He’s a 29-year-old furniture designer based out of Chicago.

And it sounds as if the relationship between him and the beloved Trainwreck actress is going awfully well at the moment.

“Amy is so, so happy,” a source tells People Magazine. “She calls him her boyfriend and says he constantly tells her how pretty, sexy and perfect she is. She feels like she hit the jackpot.”

As recently as October, Schumer was hanging a vacant sign from her vagina.

But things have clearly changed for one of the breakout stars of 2015.

“Her sister loves him and that’s important because her and her sis are BFF,” adds the People insider.

The very happy couple were spotted together during Schumer’s visit to the White House on Tuesday.

They posed at this famous residence for a group photo the celebrity later shared on Instagram and on Twitter, captioning the image “Fam and man at the whitehizzy.”

On New Year’s Day, meanwhile, Hanisch gushed over his new girlfriend in sweet Instagram post of his own, writing as a message to followers:

“Sometimes in life you get extremely lucky, and the smartest, funniest, most beautiful woman comes along when you least expect it. Here’s to what adventures 2016 brings!”

AWWWW! We adore these two already!

Hanisch is the founder of a furniture design company called The Last Workshop and had previously been a design consultant for HGTV.
