Recently, Timpf shared a health update with fans. This comes out around a year after she had been diagnosed with breast cancer. Notably, she received this diagnosis on the same day she gave birth to her son in February 2025.

Timpf was previously declared cancer-free back in early April. However, she reportedly still has to attend regular checkups every six months.

Speaking with People, Timpf shared, “I had a very unique experience being faced with both life and death in the same day — the birth of my son and then the diagnosis of a disease that could have killed me.”

Timpf shared that she tries to be optimistic, but doesn’t “force positivity,” noting the importance of negative emotions. As she shared, they can help one develop “real gratitude.”

The Fox News Alum Shared That She’s A ‘Changed Person’

Timpf’s journey was not an easy one, as she had undergone two surgeries, including a double mastectomy, all while dealing with postpartum symptoms during her recovery process. Looking back, she touched on what a harrowing experience this was.

Noting that she faced a mastectomy while still bleeding from childbirth, Timpf shared that she once told her husband, “I’m so sick of being cut open.” She added, “I just felt so sick of being a patient.”

Despite this, Timpf shared something that gave her a lot of comfort in her life. She shared, “I wake [my son] up in the morning and he’s so happy to see me. There’s nothing better in the world that could ever be going on than me walking into that room. And that’s just the best feeling ever.”

Timpf also added that all that she went through gave her a new “strength.” She added, “I’m a changed person.”
