Amy Schumer Reveals Attempt to Buy Son’s Halloween Costume Resulted in Receiving Hilarious Bird Head

Amy Schumer’s attempt to get her son a cute Halloween costume went hilariously awry.

Sharing a Reel on her Instagram on Sunday, Oct. 13, the comedian, 43, revealed that she tried to get her son Gene, 5, a bird Halloween costume, but ended up with the huge head of a mascot instead.

“Hi, hope you’re having a great weekend. I just wanted to let anyone who is interested know that I tried to order a Halloween costume for my son to be a bird and by accident I got this,” Schumer says in the video as she pops the giant bird head on.

“So if anybody needs me to homeschool their kid, I just wanted you to know that I’m a totally fit parent.” 

Schumer shares her son with husband Chris Fischer.

In March, Schumer shared a post to Instagram in which she revealed that she consulted a toddler sleep consultant to help her son Gene master a “bedtime routine.”

“We’re finally SLEEPING again. Jessica @awesomelittlesleepers helped us create a bedtime routine for our 4 year old and now he’s going to bed 3 hours earlier than he was. We got our nights back,” Schumer wrote, alongside a black-and-white photo of her and husband, 44, out on a walk.

“She seriously saved us,” Schumer added. “This is not an ad. Just trying to pass on the info that helped us.”

In November 2022, Schumer opened up about her son’s bout with respiratory syncytial virus, more commonly known as RSV. The comedian and actress posted a photo on Instagram and revealed that her son and husband were hospitalized for RSV as she was juggling the demanding schedule of hosting Saturday Night Live.

“This was the hardest week of my life,” Schumer wrote alongside a series of behind-the-scenes photographs on the SNL set. “I missed Thursday rehearsals when my son was rushed to the ER and admitted for RSV. Shout out to all the parents going through this right now.”
