Erika Kirk Says Her Daughter ‘Can’t Wait to Go’ to Heaven After Charlie Kirk’s Murder

Erika Kirk opened up about how her daughter is handling the death of Charlie Kirk, and revealed their faith is helping them get through the tragedy.

During an appearance on Hannity, Sean Hannity’s Fox News talk show, on Monday, December 8, the host asked if Erika’s belief in heaven has brought her and her family any comfort since Charlie was murdered on September 10.

“It does,” the mom of two, 37, replied. “My daughter and I, we’ve talked about this at night. She would ask, ‘What do you think Daddy did today in heaven?’ And I’ll have her relay that back to me.”

“We’ve come to the understanding, and I’ve tried to explain this to her, that Daddy’s still with us, he’s just in a different location, and he’s building us a home in heaven,” she continued. “And I’ve said this before, but she said, ‘I can’t wait to go.’ I said, ‘Me too, baby.'”

Charlie, who was a right wing political activist, was shot and killed during the first stop of his American Comeback Tour in Utah while he was speaking in front of a large crowd. The shooter managed to slip away, but 33 hours later, authorities arrested 22-year-old Tyler Robinson and charged him with the crime.

Robinson made his first appearance in court less than a week later, but he only spoke his name. He has yet to enter a plea for his charges.
