Erika Kirk sat down for her first televised interview since the death of her late husband, Charlie Kirk, earlier this year. "I can't help [but] smile to hear his name or say it," Erika, 36, said during the Wednesday, November 5, episode of Jesse Watters Primetime. "He was the love of my life. [He] still is." Charlie and Erika were married from May 2021 until his death in September. The couple shared two children: a daughter and a son born in 2022 and 2024, respectively. Charlie was shot and killed on September 10 while speaking at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah.
