Erika Kirk Emotional Reflects on Late Husband Charlie Kirk

Erika Kirk became emotional while talking about her late husband, Charlie Kirk, during an interview on Fox News on November 5. She shared memories of their early relationship and her support as his career, particularly with Turning Point USA, advanced.

Emotional Moment During Interview

During the conversation with Jesse Watters, Erika watched several videos of Charlie. After seeing one clip, she broke down in tears.

“It is the longest video I’ve watched of him (since he passed). Just give me a second,” she said, bowing her head as she began to weep.

Jesse Watters comforted her, saying, “Take your time.” The broadcast faded to black while Erika struggled to regain composure and continued crying. Upon returning, she looked calmer but still teary-eyed.

Reflections on Charlie’s Mission and Last Day

Jesse asked Erika about Charlie’s mission and their last day together before his assassination on September 10.

“Charlie was on a mission to save Western civilization. Did you know that's what you signed up for?”

Erika responded, “No, I did not sign up for anything. I just married the love of my life.”

Regarding the day before the shooting, Erika recalled, “He was at the office and we were going to meet for dinner beforehand with a dear friend of ours, who I wanted to just be with us and pray with us before the event.”
