Fox News’ Kat Timpf thanks fans for support after breast cancer announcement
Fox News personality Kat Timpf thanked fans for their support after she announced Tuesday that she’s been diagnosed with breast cancer — and assured her supporters that she’s getting the “best medical advice” possible.
Timpf took to social media on Friday to address those who were shocked by her double-barreled bit of health news earlier this week — announcing the birth of her first child and her “Stage 0” cancer diagnosis.
“Thank you so much for all the support. Its meant so much to me, this is obviously a really crazy difficult unexpected time and I really do appreciate it,” Timpf said in a selfie video posted onto X.

The Fox host relayed that many worried watchers reached out with questions after she revealed Tuesday that doctors said her “best course of action would likely be a double mastectomy as soon as possible.”
“Trust me, there’s no one for whom [a double mastectomy] seems more extreme than me,” Timpf explained in her Friday update.
“I don’t take cutting my t–s off lightly,” Timpf said, adding, “As a general rule I don’t think any woman does. I find it devastating.”
Timpf then said that she consulted with her team of medical professionals who came up with a treatment plan that worked for her, and that she is getting the “best medical advice” possible.

“Every case of breast cancer is very different. There are a lot of details of mine that I haven’t shared,” she said. “Trust that I’m making the best decision for me and my family.”
The “Gutfeld!” regular stressed that the most important thing for her is to be able to take care of her newborn son.

Timpf was dramatically diagnosed with breast cancer just 15-hours before giving birth to her son — though she took the news in stride, even finding a place for humor.
“Don’t freak out. It’s just, like, a LITTLE bit of cancer,” she wrote.
“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,” Timpf wrote.
The five-year survival rate of those diagnosed with breast cancer is 99%, according to the National Breast Cancer Foundation.
