The real royal baby, wha?

Amy Schumer has welcomed her first child with husband Chris Fischer.

The comedian and actor gave birth to a baby boy yesterday just a few hours before Meghan Markle welcomed her own first child.

Similar enough to Meghan, thousands of loyal fans flocked to the street side near where Amy had given birth, desperately hoping for a glimpse of the baby, or for Chris as he addressed the world media.

Or rather, none of those things happened and Amy was allowed to have a normal enough birth all to herself.

A massive congrats to all involved.

Amy shared the above photo to mark the birth of her son. She wrote: “10.55pm last night. Our royal baby was born.”

Just before that she had shared a photo of her “Met look for this year” as she posed on the iconic steps on the way to the hospital while wearing some leggings, a grey top, and a cardigan.

Amy informed her fans that she was having a boy over the weekend following a long post about food. Not dissimilar to the way she announced her pregnancy, she added: “Also we are having a boy” to the end of the post, allowing only the most dedicated of fans in on her secret.

Or, anyone who Googled ‘Amy Schumer’ during that time.

Amy suffered from severe hyperemesis during her pregnancy leading to her having to cancel many shows during her third trimester.

The comedian was hospitalised on more than one occasion and frequently joked about the sheer amount that she was puking.

She and husband Chris married in February of last year in a secret ceremony in Malibu.

They had been together for just four months.
