Amy Schumer almost backed out of hosting ‘SNL’ after 3-year-old son was hospitalized for RSV

Amy Schumer almost backed out of hosting “Saturday Night Live” last week after her 3-year-old son, Gene, was rushed to the emergency room for respiratory syncytial virus, she told The Hollywood Reporter.

“I was like, ‘I’m obviously not hosting [SNL] anymore,” she told the outlet. “I was texting people like, ‘Should I see who can fill in? Or, are they going to do that?’ And they were like, ‘No, you’re going to do it.’ So I just missed all of Thursday and went in Friday morning.”
