Fox News personality Kat Timpf recently took a stand against online detractors who dared to challenge her choice to undergo a double mastectomy for stage zero breast cancer, a decision she made shortly after welcoming her first child.

The sharp-witted commentator didn’t hold back when faced with unsolicited opinions about her medical journey. After her surgery, one X user chimed in, “Women, know your choices. You don’t need to lose your breasts, especially at stage 0!!” Timpf shot back with her signature sarcasm: “Oh, I just did it for kicks.”

The exchange followed a lighthearted update from political analyst Guy Benson, who dropped by to see how Timpf was faring post-operation. “I wanted to check in on her recovery,” Benson shared. “She told me to skip the pastries, so I leaned into her dark humor with these instead…” He posted a photo of his cheeky gift haul—melons, mangos, and tangerines—perfectly in tune with Timpf’s wit.

Timpf’s Fox News colleagues, including Benson and Jessica Tarlov, have been vocal with their support online as she balances healing from surgery and her new role as a mom. Taking a break from the screen, Timpf reflected candidly: “Here I am, recovering at home, looking like a mess only possible when a shower feels like a nightmare. Posting this to remind you… I’ve still got it.”

Her fans didn’t hesitate to rally around her in the comments. “You’re unstoppable! Go big or go home,” one wrote. Another added, “Your beauty shines inside and out—miss you on TV!” A third chimed in, “You’re a powerhouse. Keeping you in my prayers.”

Last week, Timpf revealed she’d undergone the double mastectomy, quipping in a post that her chest was “honestly not much smaller than pre-pregnancy.” Ahead of the procedure, she opened up about the weight of her choice. “Believe me, no one finds this more drastic than I do,” she admitted. “It’s heartbreaking, but I’m so thankful for the brilliant experts guiding me through this breast cancer journey.”
