Kat Timpf Steps Away from Gutfeld! for Surgery — Fires Back at Online Trolls with Powerful Message

Fox News personality Kat Timpf has announced she will be taking a temporary break from her role on “Gutfeld!” to undergo another surgery related to her ongoing breast cancer treatment. Timpf, a familiar face to viewers and a frequent co-host alongside Greg Gutfeld, has been open about her health journey and the challenges she has faced both on and off screen.

A Difficult Diagnosis During a Joyful Time

Earlier this year, Timpf revealed that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer—a discovery that came during what was supposed to be one of the happiest times of her life: her pregnancy. Sharing her story on Instagram in February, Timpf expressed both her gratitude and her relief that the cancer was caught early.

“I’m lucky that we found the cancer so early; I’m lucky to be my son’s mom,” she wrote.
“I mean, I know I’m biased, but the little dude absolutely rules — and not just because he might have saved my life.”

Following her diagnosis, Timpf underwent a double mastectomy, a major step in her treatment and recovery. She made her return to television in May, joining Greg Gutfeld on the Fox Nation show “What Did I Miss,” as reported by The Sun.

Stepping Away for Further Surgery

Now, Timpf has shared with her followers that she will be stepping away from television again for a few weeks to undergo another surgery—an expected part of her recovery process.

“The best case scenario of breast cancer can involve quite a road to feeling whole again, so this is the first step in that,” Timpf posted on her social media accounts.
“Just so the internet can’t come up with theories about where I am, that’s where I am.”

She also took the opportunity to thank her supporters, writing:
“Huge thanks to those of you who have taken the time to offer me words of kindness and support. I love you all so much.”

Facing Criticism and Internet Trolls

While Timpf has received an outpouring of encouragement from colleagues, friends, and fans for her openness about her cancer journey, she has also faced criticism and skepticism from some corners of the internet. Some trolls have questioned her diagnosis and even her parenting skills, prompting Timpf to stand up for herself.

“I swear I know more about my case than people online,” she posted back in March, pushing back against those who doubted her story.

Timpf also addressed those who criticized her for attending Coachella—her first public outing since giving birth to her son. She highlighted the double standard often faced by mothers in the public eye.

“One fun thing I’ve noticed about being a mom is if you ever post with your baby, or God forbid, having fun without your baby, people are like ‘Oh my God, where’s her baby? She’s a mother. Should a mother be acting like this? Grow up!’” she shared in April.
“I’ve only been a mom for a couple of months, but I’m starting to think that the only way to be a parent and avoid backlash is to be a dad.”

Looking Forward

Despite the challenges, Timpf remains optimistic, grateful, and determined to share her journey with honesty and humor. Her willingness to speak publicly about her diagnosis, recovery, and the realities of being a new mom in the spotlight has inspired many of her fans.

As she takes time for her health and healing, Timpf’s supporters look forward to her return to “Gutfeld!” and wish her a smooth recovery.
