Fox News star Britt McHenry, 33, announced over the weekend that she had brain cancer and was undergoing surgery to remove the tumor.

McHenry, the former ESPN reporter that co-hosts Fox Nation’s hit show “UN-PC,” learned the news after undergoing an MRI on Tuesday.

MRI tomorrow for neck and brain. Never had one before, pretty nervous. 😕

“I had good & bad news today. Overwhelmed by the support by friends & strangers alike. With the best surgeons and doctors. Just another thing to take on,” she wrote after the MRI.

“Please I can’t stress enough, make your check-ups. Get an MRI early. It could have saved me.”McHenry said she was trying to keep her results private, but “as usual” rumors were being circulated without her approval — so she shared the news and asked for love and support.

I was trying to keep this relatively private. But as usual, things are being said without my consent.

I have a brain tumor. I’m with an amazing medical team and surgery is imminent. Thank you for continued support and understanding at this time.

Among the outpouring of well-wishes was Meghan McCain, the daughter of the late Sen. John McCain, who tweeted her support.

The senior McCain died from an aggressive form of brain cancer in 2018.

Sending love and strength Brit. Please let me know if there’s anything we can do.

McHenry made headlines in December when she sued Fox News over sexual harassment claims.

She claimed in her lawsuit that George Murdoch — her former co-host that goes by the stage name “Tyrus” — acted in various inappropriate manners when they worked together.

In her lawsuit, McHenry said she complained to network executives three times but wasn’t believed. According to her complaint, she was instead asked how she managed to “provoke” Murdoch and that she was “replaceable” at the network.

When she announced the lawsuit on Twitter, McHenry was criticized for her previous defense of Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh —

woulda been nice to see this kind of compassion for dr. blasey-ford amiright britt
