Kat Timpf Claps Back at Online Trolls Over Pregnant Belly Comments: ‘Leave Me Alone!’
Fox News star Kat Timpf has been in the public eye for years, known for her wit and humor on shows like Gutfeld! and The Fox News Specialists. However, her latest public appearances have been overshadowed by an influx of disturbing and unsolicited comments about her pregnancy. As the 36-year-old comedian and political pundit nears her due date, she’s been bombarded with unwanted remarks from trolls about everything from her appearance to her medical status.
Timpf, who is pregnant with her first child, has been open about the challenges she’s facing as her due date passes. Despite her discomfort and exhaustion, she has continued working, appearing on Gutfeld! and other Fox News segments. Yet, her professional commitment has not shielded her from the intrusive and, at times, gross comments that have emerged online.
In a post to her social media account, Timpf addressed these trolls directly, making it clear that she’s done with the invasive remarks. “Hi everyone! I am under the close care of a doctor, and I promise that both of us know and care far more about my health and the health of my own baby than any random online stranger does from just seeing me on TV,” she wrote on X. Her message was aimed at those who have questioned her choices and felt the need to comment on her pregnancy, particularly regarding her belly and the health of her baby.
Timpf’s announcement came after one troll on X demanded an “amniotic fluid report” and instructed her not to “get political,” a comment she found more humorous than harmful. However, such invasive inquiries are not isolated. She received multiple comments concerning her pregnancy’s progress, asking her about personal details like amniotic fluid levels and making unsolicited suggestions about her health. Timpf clarified that while some comments may be well-meaning, the constant focus on her body and health felt inappropriate.
“I don’t need to be bombarded with comments about how my belly looking this way or that way clearly means I will be needing this or that procedure,” she added. “Or how I shouldn’t be at work, or concerns about my ‘amniotic fluid’ or any other wildly personal medical thing.” The pregnant star emphasized that her medical care was in the hands of professionals and that the public should respect her privacy.
Despite the negative feedback, Timpf’s fans have rallied around her, offering well-wishes and expressing their excitement for her journey into motherhood. Comments on social media platforms have expressed support, such as one user who wrote, “LOL Well, I adore you, and I hope the baby is happy and healthy!” Another fan added, “I am so going to miss you while you’re away on maternity leave. Hoping everything goes perfectly for you guys!” These heartwarming messages are a reminder of the support Timpf has from those who respect her boundaries and privacy.
In her Instagram post earlier this month, Timpf was candid about the reality of being past her due date. “Yes, I’m still pregnant,” she joked, adding, “Yes, this is the longest pregnancy of all time.” She mentioned that she had tried “everything” to induce labor, from eating spicy foods to taking long walks. Still, despite being close to her delivery date, she admitted that she didn’t want to stop working just yet. “No, I don’t want to stop working,” she said, indicating her commitment to her job. “How do I feel? Terrible,” she added, underscoring the exhaustion that comes with being days past the due date.
While Timpf’s pregnancy has brought her moments of discomfort and frustration with online scrutiny, she remains resolute in her desire to keep working. She has shown incredible resilience in handling both the pressures of impending motherhood and the demands of her high-profile career.
This pregnancy marks a new chapter for Timpf, who is expecting her first child with her husband, Cameron Friscia. The couple, married since 2021, is excited to welcome their baby, and Timpf’s journey through her first pregnancy has resonated with many of her fans.
However, as her due date draws closer, Timpf has made it clear that her focus is on what truly matters—her health and the health of her child. Her recent social media messages, while firm and unapologetic, reflect her desire for privacy and respect in the midst of her very public pregnancy.
As Timpf prepares for maternity leave, her fans are eager to see her return to the screen, with many wishing her a smooth and healthy delivery. In the meantime, she will continue to address online trolls with humor, grace, and a reminder that her pregnancy and medical journey are deeply personal.
Timpf’s ability to maintain her sense of humor, even in the face of unwelcome commentary, shows the strength and resilience that has made her such a beloved figure on Fox News.
