Amy Schumer has already declared love for her boyfriend, Chicago furniture designer Ben Hanisch. Now she’s declaring love for his parents, who live in Palatine.
“His parents are the sweetest people. They are from the Midwest. Like, they’re just the happiest,” Schumer told Howard Stern on his show Tuesday. “His mom always seems like she was just called down as a contestant on ‘Price is Right’ … She, like, sends me nice notes. And, like, they’re just the loveliest people.”
Schumer, 35, said she is living with Hanisch, whose workshop is based on the North Side. The couple has talked about having kids, but tabled that discussion for two years, Schumer said. Their parents have not met, she added.

Schumer describes meeting Hanisch, 30, through a dating app in her book “The Girl with the Lower Back Tattoo,” which was released last week. They went public with their relationship about eight months ago.
Schumer appears to be feeling better from her illness, which her rep cited as the reason she nixed a book signing scheduled for last week in Naperville. The cancellation came as Schumer sought to distance herself from misogynistic posts by Kurt Metzger, who has written for her Comedy Central show “Inside Amy Schumer.”
Schumer is scheduled to perform Nov. 25 at Allstate Arena and Nov. 26 at UIC Pavilion.
