Amy Schumer took long way around to announce she's pregnant

Amy Schumer took the long way around to announce she's pregnant with husband Chris Fischer.

The comedian and actress broke her baby news on Monday on the Instagram stories of friend and journalist Jessica Yellin.

"About to announce some exciting news on @jessicayellin insta page," Schumer wrote as she Photoshopped herself and Fisher onto Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, who are also expecting. "Please follow her for up to the minute #newsnotnoise she breaks down what's really going on. She agreed to post a lil noise today for me! Follow her and VOTE!!"

Yellin -- a former White House chief of staff who founded the site NewsNotNoise.org -- posted a list of Schumer's recommended congressional and gubernatorial candidate, and at he end of the line were the words, "I'm pregnant-Amy Schumer."

The 37-year-old is known for her liberal politics. She was recently arrested protesting the confirmation of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the US Supreme Court.

Schumer made her film debut in the 2015 film Trainwreck. She starred this year in the movie I Feel Pretty. Schumer married Fischer, a chef, in February.
