Amy Schumer is pregnant!

American comedian-actor Amy Schumer has announced her pregnancy in a rather unusual way.

The 37-year-old, who is pregnant with her first child with husband Chris Fischer, made the announcement on her Instagram account. She did so with an image of her and Fischer's faces photoshopped onto the bodies of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who announced last week that they are expecting.

In the caption, she mentioned the profile of a journalist, who had posted a list of Schumer's 20 recommendations for candidates for the upcoming US midterm elections. The list ended with the words: "I'm pregnant - Amy Schumer".

The happy news comes eight months after Schumer and Fischer tied the knot during a surprise ceremony in Malibu.
