The Big Health Reveal: Boob-Free and Cancer-Free

Timpf, who had been keeping fans updated via social media, didn’t shy away from discussing her cancer diagnosis and treatment. “I didn’t get stretch marks, which I was worried about before leaving, but I did cut my tits off,” she said with a grin, referencing her double mastectomy. “So I am boob-free. I am cancer-free as well. They got everything.”

The audience responded with loud applause as Timpf continued, visibly upbeat despite the gravity of her health struggles. “It was a hard thing to go through, and it still is,” she admitted, adding that she still has reconstructive surgeries ahead but was excited to be cancer-free.

Timpf reflected on the tough but ultimately necessary decision she made to undergo the double mastectomy. “It was an easy decision to make because I didn’t want to risk my life over a couple of 32As,” she said, drawing laughter from the audience.

The Shocking Diagnosis and the Journey That Followed

In a heartfelt segment, Timpf shared the harrowing timeline of events that led to her diagnosis. Just hours before giving birth to her son, Timpf was informed that she had stage zero breast cancer. She was advised to have a double mastectomy “as soon as possible” following the birth.

“I really had a day between the cancer diagnosis and the labor,” Timpf explained. “It was truly insane, but I’m so grateful for my son, and I’m just so thankful he’s healthy.” She spoke about how the situation unfolded in what seemed like an impossibly short amount of time, yet the love she felt for her newborn son made it all worth it. “Even if I did get cancer because I was pregnant, he’s still so worth it because I love him so much.”

Her candidness about the challenges she faced—from the cancer diagnosis to navigating motherhood—touched viewers and fans alike, many of whom expressed their admiration and relief that Timpf was now cancer-free.
