Kat Timpf is fighting not only ca**er but also mom-shamers and conspiracy theories. However, the Fox News personality is addressing everything head-on with her trademark candor and sense of humor.<\/p>\n
The 36-year-old co-host of Gutfeld! officially announced on the June 25 episode that she would be taking a temporary leave of absence to have another surgery related to her breast ca**er journey.<\/p>\n
As Kat explained to the audience, \u201cthe best case scenario of br**st cancer can involve quite a road to feeling whole again.\u201d \u201cThat\u2019s where I am, just to prevent the internet from speculating about my location.\u201d<\/p>\n
A Trip That Began With Two Words That Changed My Life
\nHours after giving birth to her son in February, Timpf made her diagnosis public for the first time. The timing was both life-saving and as intense as it gets.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m fortunate to be my son\u2019s mother; we were fortunate to discover the cancer so early,\u201d she wrote on Instagram.<\/p>\n
Timpf had a double mastectomy in March after receiving a Stage 0 breast ca**er diagnosis. Two months later, she made her TV comeback and declared herself ca**er-free. However, the road to recovery is far from over.<\/p>\n
Combating Cancer and Online Hatred Together
\nThe majority of fans offer support, but Kat has also had to silence trolls who cast doubt on her parenting abilities or diagnosis.<\/p>\n
In March, she declared, \u201cI swear I know more about my case than people online.\u201d<\/p>\n
Even a Coachella trip sparked criticism.<\/p>\n
Kat joked, \u201cI\u2019m beginning to believe that being a dad is the only way to be a parent and avoid backlash.\u201d<\/p>\n
She even had to put an end to a fictitious d**th rumor in April:<\/p>\n
\u201cDude, a lot of phony accounts are posting things about me, including this one that claims I passed away.\u201d<\/p>\n
Kat\u2019s Announcement of Birth? Not yet filtered
\nTimpf\u2019s initial post announcing the birth of her son and the news of his cancer was anything but ordinary:<\/p>\n
\u201cRemain calm. It is merely a small amount of ca**er.<\/p>\n
She talked about how she went from having past-due prenatal appointments to being told she would require a double mastectomy and giving birth that same evening.<\/p>\n
The attitude remains the same despite the impending surgery. Still Kat, Still Unfiltered
\nKat remains competitive even as she prepares for another surgery. As early as March, she shared:<\/p>\n
\u201cAfter my cancer is eradicated, I have breast reconstruction surgery, recuperate from childbirth, and am physically able to resume my gym routine.\u201d For you, B**HEZ #MILF, it\u2019s over. *<\/p>\n
And following her most recent announcement, admirers turned up once more:<\/p>\n
I\u2019m glad you shared it. One follower wrote, \u201cCease the rumors before they start.\u201d<\/p>\n
It has never been about pity for Kat. One brutally honest joke at a time, just taking responsibility for her story.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
