Kat Timpf Confirms Her Return to TV After Welcoming Baby and Undergoing Surgery: A New Chapter with Greg Gutfeld and Jamie Lissow

After months away from the spotlight, beloved FOX News personality Kat Timpf has officially announced her highly anticipated return to television. Fans who have missed her wit and candor will soon see her alongside Greg Gutfeld and comedian Jamie Lissow in an exciting new reality series airing on Fox Nation. Timpf’s journey back to the screen comes after a deeply personal hiatus spent focusing on her growing family and her health battle.

Timpf, 36, took maternity leave earlier this year following the birth of her first child, a baby boy. The happy occasion was soon tempered by a frightening breast cancer diagnosis, a life-changing moment that prompted her to step away from her demanding media career. Now, after months of navigating new motherhood and undergoing vital medical treatments, Timpf is ready to return—stronger and more determined than ever.

The popular commentator, best known for her appearances on Greg Gutfeld’s late-night show “Gutfeld!” and her sharp takes on political and cultural issues, made the announcement in a heartwarming post on social media. Quoting Gutfeld’s teaser about the upcoming show, she added, “V excited for this. I’m on the panel w my weird little friend @jamie_lissow,” referring to her new project.

The new series, titled What Did I Miss?, will premiere exclusively on Fox Nation, the network’s digital streaming platform. Unlike anything fans have seen before, this reality show puts an inventive twist on traditional game formats by thrusting contestants into a high-stakes competition about real-world news events.

From January 20 to April 13, four participants lived in total isolation in Upstate New York, cut off from modern communication—no phones, no internet, no television, and no social media. The participants spent nearly three months disconnected from the outside world, missing pivotal developments in the United States, including the first 90 days of the Trump administration.

Upon their return, the competitors must piece together what happened during their absence. Each episode will present them with a series of news scenarios, and they must decide which are true and which are fabricated. The live studio audience will witness their hilarious confusion, dramatic realizations, and surprising knowledge gaps as they struggle to separate fact from fiction.

At the heart of the show is a massive prize: $500,000 awaits the contestant who proves the most adept at catching up with reality. With stakes that high, the competition promises both tension and laughter.

Leading the charge is Greg Gutfeld, bringing his trademark humor and sharp insight to the role of host. Meanwhile, Kat Timpf and Jamie Lissow will provide lively commentary and expert (and often hilarious) observations from the panel.

“Truth can be stranger than fiction, and who better to help isolated Americans catch up on the headlines they missed during an unprecedented news cycle than Greg Gutfeld?” said FOX Nation President Lauren Petterson. She emphasized the uniqueness of the show and praised the dynamic energy that Gutfeld, Timpf, and Lissow bring to the screen.

Petterson also noted that FOX Nation subscribers will have exclusive access to the project, allowing them to witness America’s most-watched late-night host make his debut in the world of game shows.

The first episode of What Did I Miss? is scheduled to premiere on May 12, followed by two more episodes airing on May 13 and 14. Viewers can expect a blend of humor, unpredictability, and poignant moments as contestants attempt to reconstruct a whirlwind of news they never saw coming.

Behind the scenes, the show also represents a personal victory for Kat Timpf. Her decision to return to work so soon after facing two monumental life events—giving birth and fighting cancer—is a testament to her resilience and dedication. Though she has always been known for her sharp tongue and fearless commentary, Timpf’s new chapter reveals a softer, more profound strength that resonates deeply with her fans.

While Timpf has historically kept many aspects of her private life under wraps, her openness about her cancer diagnosis has been both brave and inspiring. By returning to a public role, she offers a powerful example of overcoming adversity, embracing new beginnings, and continuing to do what she loves—making audiences think, laugh, and, now, cheer for isolated contestants trying to make sense of a wild political landscape.

As May 12 approaches, excitement is building across FOX Nation’s subscriber base and beyond. The combination of a creative show concept, beloved personalities, and a real-world backdrop of political and social chaos ensures that What Did I Miss? will be a must-watch event.

For Kat Timpf, it’s more than just another show—it’s a triumphant return and a fresh start. Fans who have followed her journey from news panelist to bestselling author, from late-night staple to now proud mom and cancer survivor, have one message: Welcome back, Kat. We missed you.

Stay tuned for more updates, behind-the-scenes footage, and exclusive interviews as What Did I Miss? makes its long-awaited debut.
