Kat Timpf is poised to make her anticipated return to Gutfeld! after a six-week maternity leave, a break that was postponed due to unforeseen health challenges. Timpf will step back into her role on Fox News’ nightly panel show starting Monday, February 20, as confirmed by LateNighter.
In her announcement towards the end of Gutfeld!’s January 9 episode, Timpf shared her journey, revealing that her maternity leave had transitioned into what she referred to as “cancer leave.” This change came after her breast cancer diagnosis, which occurred mere hours before the birth of her first child. The treatment and subsequent surgery significantly impacted her ability to enjoy the typical experiences of new motherhood, such as holding her newborn son in the early weeks.
Despite the hardships she faced, Timpf expressed optimism about returning to her television role and pursuing her stand-up comedy career, stating, “I’m going to be so back.”
Since joining Fox News in 2015, Timpf has become a familiar face, not only as a co-host on Gutfeld! but also as a contributor to Fox Nation’s game show, Greg Gutfeld’s What Did I Miss?, where she engages with contestants vying to catch up on current events.
Timpf’s resilience and determination resonate positively, highlighting her commitment to return to the screen and reconnect with her audience after facing such personal challenges. Her story serves as an inspiring reminder of strength and resilience in the face of adversity.
