Kat Timpf announced she was taking a break from Gutfeld! as she’s about to undergo another surgery related to her breast cancer treatment.
The Fox News personality announced earlier this year that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer. The news came during a time which was supposed to be the happiest of her life — her pregnancy.
“I’m lucky that we found the cancer so early; I’m lucky to be my son’s mom,” she announced on Instagram in February.
“I mean, I know I’m biased, but the little dude absolutely rules — and not just because he might have saved my life.”
Since then, she had underwent a double mastectomy and returned to television in May, joining Greg Gutfeld on the Fox Nation show, What Did I Miss, The Sun reported.
Now, Timpf will be off TV for a couple more weeks due to another surgery.
“The best case scenario of breast cancer can involve quite a road to feeling whole again, so this is the first step in that,” she posted on her social media, and added: “Just so the internet can’t come up with theories about where I am, that’s where I am.”
Timpf also expressed her gratitude to everyone who sent her well-wishes. “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,” she wrote.

While she received words of encouragement by her fellow colleagues and many of her fans for speaking publicly of her cancer, some internet trolls cast doubt on her parenting abilities and diagnosis, forcing Timpf to defend herself. “I swear I know more about my case than people online,” she posted back in March.
Also, some criticized her for attending Coachella, her first public outing since giving birth to her son.
“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 posted on her social media accounts 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.”
