Fox News personality Kat Timpf has revealed that she and her husband, Cameron Friscia, were expecting their first child.
On Fox News, Timpf shared her journey of coming to terms with the life-changing news.
She described the experience as a shocking and gradual realization, emphasizing the profound impact it has had on her and her husband.
Kat Timpf has opened up about the unexpected news of her pregnancy, revealing that she was completely shocked when she saw a positive test result on May 30.
At 35, she acknowledged the medical classification of her pregnancy as “geriatric” and admitted she had never truly expected to find herself in this situation.
“I never expected to find myself in this situation,” Timpf wrote, explaining that she had mentally prepared for every other possibility. She initially assumed she wouldn’t get pregnant, especially not naturally. Even after it happened, she expected the worst, fearing she would likely miscarry due to her age.
She also shared a significant milestone from June 27, the night of the presidential debate between Joe Biden and Donald Trump. On that day, she and her husband heard their baby’s heartbeat for the first time.
“We heard the heartbeat for the first time, and then we heard it again,” she said, recalling the moment.
Despite this milestone, Timpf admitted that the news never brought a dramatic, overwhelming rush of excitement. “It was never this exciting emotional rush of ‘OMG, WE’RE GOING TO BE PARENTS!!!!’” she explained.
“There was also something else working against the possibility of me experiencing all-encompassing astonishment, and that was, well, I was just too damn tired,” she admitted.
She also opened up about a deeper sorrow—one that overshadowed the moment.
Timpf expressed heartache over not being able to share this life-changing experience with her mother, who passed away on November 5, 2014
“I feel a sense of unity and solidarity with all the women who have gone through this. 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.”
“It’s felt cruel, at times disorienting, and a bit unfair to have to try and figure out how to be a mother when I can hardly remember what it’s like to have one,” she reflected.
A particularly poignant moment for Timpf is on the horizon—November 5, 2024, the tenth anniversary of her mother’s passing, will also mark her sixth month of pregnancy. “What a world I get to tell my kid about. What a decade my mom missed,” she noted.
