Erika Kirk, widow of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, gave her first television interview since her husband’s assassination, revealing the ongoing impact of the tragedy on their young family. Nearly two months after Charlie Kirk’s death, their 3-year-old daughter continues to ask for her father, as reported by The New York Post.
Speaking with Fox News host Jesse Watters, Erika shared the heartbreaking questions from her daughter and described how she has been guiding her through the grieving process.
“It’s really sweet because I keep explaining to her a few things, and I said, ‘if you ever want to talk to daddy you just look up to the sky and start talking, and he can hear you,’” Erika explained. “I told her, ‘You know, daddy is in heaven’ and she goes, ‘Do you think I could go sometime?’”
“I said, ‘Baby, we will all go one day,’” she continued.
Charlie and Erika Kirk had two children together: a daughter who turned 3 in August and a son who turned 1 in May.
Charlie Kirk, 31, was tragically shot and killed on September 10 while speaking at Utah Valley University. Authorities reported that the suspected gunman, 22-year-old Tyler Robinson, opened fire during the event, striking Kirk in the neck.
The shooting was captured on multiple videos that later circulated widely on social media. Robinson was arrested days later following a multi-state manhunt and charged with aggravated murder and related offenses. Prosecutors have confirmed he could face the death penalty by firing
