In her upcoming Netflix special Amy Schumer: Growing she told a crowd in Chicago: 'I knew from the beginning that my husband's brain was a little different than mine.'

She then added, 'I have to start this over because I really want to get this right because I love him very much.

'My husband was diagnosed with what used to be called Asperger's. He has autism spectrum disorder. He's on the spectrum. And there were some signs early on.'

The Snatched star went on to admit she has shared a lot of 'Huh' moments' with her husband, starting from when she fell over on one of their first dates.

She continued: 'Nine out of 10 people would go, "Oh my god, are you OK?!" Maybe more like 10 out of 10 people...Instead, my husband went-- He kind of froze and became a lighthouse, opening and closing his mouth.

'I remember lying on the ground looking up at him and I wasn't mad, I just thought, "Huh." Lotta "Huh" moments, you know?'

But the Trainwreck actress is unfazed by his condition and admitted one of the reasons why she fell in love with him was because 'he keeps it so real' and always tells the truth.

She said: 'Once he was diagnosed, it dawned on me how funny it was, because all of the characteristics that make it clear that he's on the spectrum are all of the reasons that I fell madly in love with him.

'That's the truth. He says whatever is on his mind. He keeps it so real. He doesn't care about social norms or what you expect him to say or do.'

In April she told the Howard Stern Show that she and Fischer slept together on their first date.

'We had sex. You know me. Sex!' Schumer said. 'There was no nonsense. It was just, "Let’s go." And, it was sweet. It was really nice. We had a great night.'

She continued, 'I have a habit of not letting people sleep in my bed, and so I wanted him to sleep there, then in the morning, I was happy he was there. I said in the morning, "I don’t want you to go," and he said, "I don’t want to go either." And, then we just worked really hard to keep seeing each other.'

The star also told ET in April she was happy to be done dating.

'Yeah. I do feel different. I'm done. I don't ever have to zip my knee boots up and leave a dude's place at 4 a.m. that has, like a Rottweiler,' she joked.

'I just knew I didn't want to settle. I'll be fine on my own. Maybe I'll fall in love a couple more times but I don't need that partner. And then I met the person I wanted to partner up with. I didn't know right away. I knew him for seven months before it became romantic, but once I knew, I knew quick. I was like "Oh, I'm done. I can't believe I messed with those other suckers."'
