Newly single Amy Schumer is feeling pretty with her new weight loss — and she’s not apologizing for showing it off.
Schumer, 44, flaunted her slimmer figure with a new photo shoot shared to her Instagram on Thursday.
She opened the carousel of photos with a snap of her in a childlike pose as she gleefully laid on top of a giant teddy bear. She followed it up with a black-and-white photo of herself against a woody backdrop.
“Pics of yourself when you’re finally feeling strong and beautiful are not a cry for help. They are a celebration of life and health. Love to the single moms out there,” she captioned her photos in part.
The “LIfe & Beth” star continued, promoting several books for her followers to check out. Among the list was “Fair Play” by Eve Rodsky and “The Amazing Generation” by Catherine Price.
Elsewhere in her lengthy note, Schumer gave a warm shout out to her photographer Eliana Orly, calling her a “baller” photog with “no ego and insane talent.”
The comedian’s post comes a month after she filed to divorce her estranged husband Chris Fischer on Jan. 6, after seven years of marriage.
After seemingly dropping hints with several Instagram posts flaunting her weight loss, Schumer announced she and Fischer were calling it quits in December 2025.
At the time, sources said the split was “a long time coming” as the “I Feel Pretty” actress began plotting her career revival following her years-long hiatus after she welcomed her son, Gene Attell Fischer.
“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,” an insider told Daily Mail of the breakup.
“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.”
The insider also noted that Schumer’s recent weight-loss journey is playing a role in her career plans.
In March 2025, she revealed that she was back on weight-loss drugs after suffering through a “horrible experience” on Wegovy.
In a video, Schumer revealed that she had been taking Mounjaro and had been seeing “great” results.
