FOX News star Kennedy Montgomery has shared a sweet message to Gutfeld! co-host Kat Timpf as she fills her spot on the late night show.

On February 25, Timpf announced she had been diagnosed with stage zero breast cancer just 15 hours before going into labor with her first son with her husband Cameron Friscia.

Two days later, Greg Gutfeld announced that Timpf would be taking time to treat her cancer and have it removed in surgery during her maternity leave from the network.
Montgomery, 52, is taking Timpf’s spot on Gutfeld’s comedy show panel all week – and shared a sweet video message to the new mom on social media.
“We are going to channel her goodness and her glasses and we will sprinkle the studio with absolute love and affection,” Montgomery said in a video posted to X.
She jokingly added, “You’re going to want to pay for it, but I only take cash.”
Timpf responded to the homage with hearts in a post on X.
It comes after Montgomery, a co-host on Outnumbered and The Five, previously called Timpf a “hero” in response to news of her diagnosis.
“You are amazing in every way,” Montgomery told Timpf.
“And you were heroic in labor given the day you’d just had! I love you.”
It’s unclear who will fill Timpf’s spot on Gutfeld! after this week.
Fox News viewers shared their excitement for Montgomery’s place on the panel online.
“The greatest commentator ever to grace the Fox airwaves. Kennedy rules!” one wrote.
“Definitely an appropriate choice, Ms. Kennedy!” a second shared.
A third added, “The firecracker on the panel that is needed in Kat’s absence.
Hey it’s Kennedy, I am in for Kat all week. We are going to channel her goodness and her glasses and we will sprinkle the studio with absolute love and affection. You’re going to want to pay for it, but I only take cash. See you here on Gutfeld! every night at 10 pm eastern on the Fox News channel.”

“Please let Kat know we are praying for her and her newborn baby.”
Timpf came to work as a Fox News columnist through the last days of her pregnancy – even when she was past her due date.
Then, she announced she had given birth – along with revealing her breast cancer diagnosis.
“Don’t freak out. It’s just, like, a little bit of cancer,” she wrote on Instagram.
The comedian said doctors advised she get a double mastectomy as soon as possible.
Kat Timpf’s full statement
An Unconventional Birth Announcement
Last week, I welcomed my first child into the world. About fifteen hours before I went into labor, I was diagnosed with breast cancer.
Now, before you worry, my doctor says it’s Stage 0 and is confident that it almost certainly hasn’t spread. Or, as I’ve explained to the few people I’ve managed to tell about it so far: Don’t freak out. It’s just, like, a LITTLE bit of cancer.
Still, it was not a chill day. I mean, to say the least! I woke up more-than-a-week-past-due pregnant, completely consumed by doing everything I could to get the baby out. By the middle of the afternoon, I was waddling around from appointment to appointment, talking about how to get my cancer out. I sat and listened as they told me that the best course of action would likely be a double mastectomy as soon as possible. I asked all the questions I could, including if I could get a copy of my tumor ultrasound to put on the fridge next to the ultrasound of my baby. Finally, by the middle of the night, I was crawling around on the floor of my apartment in spontaneous labor, before heading to the hospital to meet my baby, whom I’d learn at the time of birth was a son.
The good news? People who work at hospitals make excellent audiences for dark humor — and, as someone whose first book was about the power of jokes to get through traumatic situations, there was really no better place for me to be. Just minutes after my boy was born, I was talking with the nurses about what a birth announcement in my situation might look like.
Should I go with “Mom and baby are doing well, except maybe for mom’s cancer, and then maybe the baby after breastfeeding is stunted by her double mastectomy,” and then shut off my phone for a week?
Anyway! These next three months of maternity leave are going to look a lot different than I’d anticipated, and I’m still getting used to my new reality. Still, as I navigate new motherhood (and new cancer) I’m learning to celebrate everything I can. I’m lucky that we found the cancer so early; I’m lucky to be my son’s mom. I mean, I know I’m biased, but the little dude absolutely rules — and not just because he might have saved my life.
Thank you all for your support, laughter, and love as I embrace this wildly unexpected chapter. Here’s to resilience, to miracles in the midst of chaos, and to finding humor and hope even on the toughest days.
Kat
She added that after giving birth, she was grateful for the healthy baby boy that “might have saved my life.”
The political commentator recently clapped back at nosy fans who gave her unwanted medical opinions and told them she trusted her doctors to give her the best advice.
“I find it devastating, but I am very grateful to have access to the opinions of many brilliant minds when it comes to breast cancer,” she said about potentially getting a double mastectomy.
“I have been very lucky to have a team that is very knowledgeable on this and the focus of all these conversations is what’s the best thing to do to keep me alive so I’m around for my son for a long time.
Gutfeld! airs at 10 pm every night of the week.
However, the comedy show won’t air on Tuesday because President Donald Trump will give his first joint address to Congress at 9 pm.
