GUTFELD! BOMBSHELL: Kat Timpf Returns in Power Move That Left a Co-Host AXED—Tyrus Spills Secret Behind Explosive Cast Shake-Up and What’s REALLY Going On at Fox! Was This a Genius Revival Plan—or a Ratings Disaster Waiting to Happen?”

In a jaw-dropping twist that’s left fans reeling and insiders scrambling, Tyrus has just exposed the bombshell details behind Kat Timpf’s shocking return to Gutfeld!—and it’s not the cheerful reunion story Fox News wanted you to believe.

While viewers celebrated Timpf’s emotional on-air comeback last week, what they didn’t see was the brutal behind-the-scenes chess game that made it all possible. Tyrus has now confirmed the whispers: someone was pushed out, and the power shift is shaking the very core of the Gutfeld! lineup.

THE SILENT PURGE NOBODY TALKED ABOUT… UNTIL NOW

According to explosive leaks from multiple sources—including a now-deleted podcast clip featuring Tyrus himself—a key co-host was quietly removed to make way for Timpf’s highly publicized return. Though Fox has refused to confirm any changes, all signs point to comedian Joe DeVito, who hasn’t appeared in weeks, as the one sidelined.

Fans noticed. Reddit lit up. And now we know why.

Tyrus didn’t hold back. In the recording, he said:

“You think someone just waltzes back into the chair without Fox moving mountains? Come on. Someone got the boot. Loyalty matters—but ratings talk louder.”

Brutal. Honest. And absolutely true.

TYRUS’S ROLE IN THE SHAKE-UP—MORE THAN JUST A FRIEND

What shocked fans even more was learning that Tyrus played a major role in orchestrating Timpf’s return. While previously seen as a comic relief giant, he’s now emerged as a fixer—someone with influence, connections, and a mission to bring the show “back to its roots.”

One source close to the production revealed:

“Tyrus went to bat for Kat. Hard. He convinced Greg [Gutfeld] that the energy was off without her. He said the fans missed the old vibe. And let’s be real, Timpf moves numbers.”

And he wasn’t wrong.

THE “RATINGS RESCUE” GAMBLE

Fox execs were reportedly growing nervous as Gutfeld!’s ratings plateaued this spring. Despite holding onto the #1 spot in late-night, internal memos show concerns about “diminishing edge” and “brand identity drift.” Bringing Kat back was a strategic gamble—one they hoped would reignite the fire.

And so far? It’s working.

Early data from Nielsen suggests a 12% viewership bump during Timpf’s return episode, and social media engagement has doubled since the clips went viral. The keyword “Kat Timpf comeback” even trended across multiple platforms for 36 hours straight.

But at what cost?

INSIDERS WARN: “THIS COULD BACKFIRE”

While fans cheered, not everyone inside Fox News was thrilled.

One longtime staffer reportedly told The Daily Wire:

“Greg didn’t love the idea of letting someone go. But pressure from above—and Tyrus’s persistence—forced his hand. Now there’s tension. Don’t be surprised if more exits follow.”

Whispers of a brewing internal rift have since surfaced. Word is, another co-host may be next on the chopping block if this new “Timpf-centered” strategy doesn’t sustain the momentum.

A PROMOTION… OR A FINAL LAP?

The biggest question now: is this return the beginning of Kat’s new leadership era—or a final lap before leaving Fox altogether?

Some believe the network is testing the waters for a Timpf-led spinoff, possibly focused on libertarian commentary and pop culture—two of Kat’s strongest suits. Others argue this could be her victory lap before going fully independent.

Tyrus added fuel to the fire with one cryptic line during his backstage reveal:

“She’s not just back. She’s in charge of her story now.”

THE VERDICT: MASTERSTROKE OR MISTAKE?

Whether this bold shake-up will solidify Gutfeld!’s dominance or expose cracks beneath its success remains to be seen. But one thing is clear:

This isn’t the same show it was a month ago.

Kat Timpf is back. Tyrus is pulling strings. And someone just lost their seat at the table.

And for the first time in a long time, the future of late-night doesn’t look scripted—it looks explosive.
