Fox News host and comedian Kat Timpf has undergone a double mastectomy for breast cancer after receiving the shock diagnosis while pregnant.

Timpf, 36, was told she had stage zero breast cancer just one day before going into labor with her first child.

On Thursday afternoon, Timpf shared a post-surgery update to let fans know she was doing well.

She shared an image from a hospital bed of her legs covered by a gown with an animated ‘censored’ illustration over her feet.

In the caption, she made a joke about how much her breast size had been reduced.

‘Post-op! They’re honestly not much smaller than they were before I got pregnant,’ Timpf wrote said.

The TV star’s followers praised her ability to use humor at a difficult time.

‘Your sense of humor will serve you well getting through this. Helped me, immensely,’ one person shared.

‘Praying for you Kat [heart emoji] And laughter is the best medicine, so you got this!’ another added.

Timpf received a slew of positive messages wishing her a fast recovery as she cares for a newborn baby who she shares with her husband, Cameron Friscia.

‘Awe, mama! We’re thinking of you and praying for all good things,’ one comment on X read.

‘Girl, just follow your doctors instructions, rest and do your best! Cancer is a journey and motherhood is forever! You go Kat! You got this,’ another supporter chimed in.

The mom has been open about her unconventional journey to parenthood as she navigated the first few weeks of her son’s life while reeling from the cancer diagnosis.

At the end of February, Timpf shared a post titled ‘An unconventional birth announcement’ where she detailed the emotional whirlwind of having a child and receiving the life-changing news.

‘Last week, I welcomed by first child into the world. About fifteen hours before I went into labor, I was diagnosed with breast cancer,’ she said.

Timpf went on to assure her supporters that the cancer was stage zero and her doctors were confident that it hadn’t spread.

‘I woke up more-than-a-week-past-due pregnant, completely consumed by doing everything I could to get the baby out,’ she continued.

‘By the afternoon, I was waddling around from appointment to appointment, talking about how to get my cancer out.

Timpf said that following the diagnosis she was ‘crawling around the floor of my apartment in spontaneous labor.’

Shortly after her shock announcement, Timpf shared an update thanking her followers for their support and hitting back at those who took the opportunity to share their unsolicited advice.

Some social media users said it was extreme to have a double mastectomy for stage zero breast cancer, but Timpf reminded her followers that ‘every case of breast cancer is different.’

The popular TV personality then used her signature edgy sense of humor once again, joking, ‘I don’t take cutting my t*** off lightly.’

‘As a general rule, I don’t think any woman does. I find it devastating. But I am very grateful to have access to the opinions of many brilliant minds when it comes to breast cancer.’

Last week, Timpf shared a photo of herself at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York and wrote, ‘Once I recover from childbirth, my mole removal scars heal, I get a double mastectomy, get rid of my cancer, have breast reconstruction surgery & am physically capable of getting back in the gym it’s OVER FOR U B*****Z.’

Timpf is a favorite commentator and comedian on Gutfeld! which airs on Fox News weeknights at 10 pm. She worked as a co-host on the program throughout her pregnancy.

She is also a comedian and author of the New York Times bestsellers, I Used To Like You Until… (How Binary Thinking Divides Us) and You Can’t Joke About That: Why Everything is Funny, Nothing is Sacred, and We’re All in This Together.
