Kat Timpf Claps Back at Internet Trolls After Pregnancy Announcement
Fox News personality Kat Timpf has opened up about her pregnancy journey, sharing the emotional and candid moments of her experience in a recent opinion piece.
The 35-year-old, who is expecting her first child with husband Cameron Friscia, found herself facing skepticism from some online users who questioned the authenticity of her announcement.
In her op-ed, Timpf shared the moment she learned she was pregnant and the personal struggles that have shaped her experience.
“I found out I was pregnant the same day as former President Donald Trump was convicted on 34 felony counts,” she wrote, adding that her first ultrasound coincided with President Biden’s debate performance.
She also mentioned feeling sorrowful over the loss of her mother in 2014, as she realized she wouldn’t be able to share this moment with her.
Timpf had no issue addressing the negative comments about her pregnancy, which many skeptics questioned.
After posting a picture showing off her baby bump alongside the link to her opinion piece, some followers expressed disbelief, commenting, “Wait, for real??!?”
With a laugh, Timpf responded to the doubters: “LOL at all the people asking if this is real. Yes lmao; this is as real as it gets !!!!!”
Her candid reply only endeared her to many of her followers, who rushed to congratulate her and share their own experiences with pregnancy.
Timpf’s post sparked a wave of support from her Fox colleagues, with personalities like Tyrus, Piers Morgan, and Jessica Tarlov offering their congratulations.
“So psyched for you guys! You said the stuff about doing this without a parent better than I ever could,” Tarlov commented, adding humorously, “Can’t wait to field all your complaints/concerns!!”
Despite the public’s overwhelming support, Timpf didn’t shy away from discussing the challenges of pregnancy.
On her Gutfeld! segment, she joked about the difficulties of the experience, saying, “It’s all f***ing hard. I had no idea.” But she also highlighted the silver lining, sharing how the hardships have allowed her to relate to other women going through similar experiences, regardless of their political beliefs.
Her openness about the toll of pregnancy, including the exhaustion she’s faced, resonates with many women. “I thought I knew what it was like to be tired. I didn’t know,” she admitted.
Timpf’s announcement and her decision to openly discuss her personal journey come amid her busy career as a Fox News contributor.
In addition to her regular appearances on Gutfeld!, she is also the author of two books, You Can’t Joke About That and I Used to Like You Until…—the latter of which will be released on September 10.
As she moves forward in her pregnancy, Timpf’s candid and humorous approach has made her a relatable voice for many who have faced similar challenges. Through her work and personal life, she’s continued to be an inspiration to both her fans and colleagues.

BREAKING THE NEWS
Following her pregnancy announcement, Timpf hosted Gutfeld! on Fox in Greg Gutfeld’s absence.
Timpf hosted the show alongside commentators Tyrus, Lisa Kennedy Montgomery, and Jim Norton.
She opened the show with a series of jokes about Kamala Harris, Donald Trump, and the 2024 presidential election before segwaying into her personal news.
“It’s all f***ing hard. I had no idea,” she said.
“I also know that it’s not going to get any easier probably for decades if I’m lucky,” Timpf opened up.
“But the good news is I can look at the hard times in one more way that I can relate to other women who have shared this experience regardless of our politics.”
If I’m being honest, though, I also feel sadness about there being one woman in particular whom I’ll never be able to share this connection with: my mom.”
