We love Amy Schumer. She’s hilarious, outspoken, and about to have a baby with her husband Chris! Chris was just diagnosed with Autism and Amy is discussing why she chose to go public with his diagnosis.On Wednesday night’s (3/20) episode of Late Night With Seth Meyers, Amy said she is hopeful that at some point being diagnosed with autism will be no big deal.
She said she is hopeful that one day there will no longer be a stigma surrounding the diagnosis, and she hopes more people are encouraged by her husbands journey to get diagnosed because, “The tools that we’ve been given has made his life so much better and our marriage and our life more manageable. I just wanted to encourage people to not be afraid of that stigma.”
“I think there are a lot of people with autism who go undiagnosed when I think their life could be better if they got those tools,” Schumer said.
