Following the news of Charlie Kirk's death, many of the 31-year-old's followers publicly mourned him and reflected on the impact he made on their lives. However, no one was arguably more affected by his death than his wife, Erika Kirk, and their two children.
Before Charlie was allegedly shot to death by his suspected killer, Tyler Robinson, the right-wing influencer married Erika, whom he met at a restaurant while she was applying for a job at his company, Turning Point USA. They were married in May 2021 and spent the last four years of Charlie's life building a family. Since he died, some have wondered if they were still creating their family when he died.
Multiple reports have claimed Erika might have been pregnant at the time of Charlie's death. So, are the pregnancy rumors true? Here's what to know.
Is Erika Kirk pregnant with her first child?
We can't say for sure if Erika became pregnant before Charlie died. However, if you ask the social media streets, that's exactly what happened.
According to a Facebook post shared on the account Miniatures The Heart, Erika was rumored to have been pregnant with her and Charlie's third child. The report stated Erika announced the "profoundly emotional update" on Sept. 18, 2025.
"This bittersweet news has shaken the hearts of her fans and supporters, leaving many feeling both heartbroken and uplifted," the post read. "As Erika continues to navigate the deep grief of losing her beloved husband, this unexpected announcement brings a glimmer of hope and marks a new chapter in her family’s journey."
"Amidst her sorrow, Erika’s strength and courage stand as an inspiring testament to her resilience," it added. "Her ability to honor Charlie’s memory while embracing the promise of new life is a powerful reminder of the love and hope that can emerge even in the darkest times. The world watches, sending love and prayers as Erika embraces motherhood once more, a beautiful tribute to the legacy Charlie leaves behind."
Despite the Facebook account's report, it doesn't appear that Erika actually announced a pregnancy on her social media accounts. Based on her internet activity during the date the Facebook post claimed she made the announcement, there's no evidence leading towards a third pregnancy.
Erika's posts during that time were focused on Charlie and the life they had with their two children, whom they kept out of the public eye while the influencer was alive. In an Instagram post shared on Sept. 20, 2025, Erika shared a video of her husband playing with their baby.
"My favorite memories will forever be us raising our babies together," she captioned the post. "I love you @charliekirk1776. Tell Sir Isaac Newton that GG is ready for her quiz."
Erika Kirk said she's forgiven Charlie Kirk's killer.
Although Erika hasn't addressed her pregnancy rumors, she has discussed her husband's death multiple times. Charlie's widow spoke at his funeral on Sunday, Sept. 21, 2025. During the massive event in Glendale, Ariz., Erika spoke in front of a reported 200,000-member audience and shared her final memories with her late husband. According to her interview with The New York Times, she said her husband died with a "Mona Lisa-like half-smile" and she felt "he'd died happy."
According to Fox News, Erika also said at Charlie's funeral that she forgave Robinson, stating, "because it was what Christ did, and it's what Charlie would do."
As of this writing, Robinson remains in custody for Charlie's fatal shooting.
