Erika Kirk says pregnancy would have been ‘ultimate blessing’ after husband’s assassination
Erika Kirk was 'praying to God' that she was pregnant when Charlie Kirk was assassinated
Erika Kirk, widow of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, revealed she was “praying to God” she was pregnant when her husband was assassinated in September.
The couple, who share a three-year-old daughter and a one-year-old son, had planned to have four children together.
Kirk now encourages young couples not to delay having children, stating that careers can wait, but the opportunity to have children cannot.
Charlie Kirk, 31, was shot dead while speaking at Utah Valley University, with Tyler Robinson arrested and charged with his murder.
Erika Kirk has since taken over as the leader of Turning Point USA, vowing to continue her late husband's work and legacy.
