<p>Turning Point USA CEO Erika Kirk marked her fifth wedding anniversary Friday with a touching tribute to her late husband, Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated during a speaking event in September.</p>
<p>In a social media post, the widow reflected on their relationship and how she hopes to share their legacy with their daughter and son.</p>
<p>&#8220;Even though our kids won&#8217;t see our love &#8216;grow old together&#8217; from an earthly stand point; they&#8217;ll see it from a Heavenly one,&#8221; she posted on X. &#8220;Happy Anniversary to the love of my life.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">Even though our kids won’t see our love “grow old together” from an earthly stand point; they’ll see it from a Heavenly one. And I’ll tell them of our love story any moment I can.</p>
<p>Happy Anniversary to the love of my life. <a href="https://t.co/PAXTyxm7ly">pic.twitter.com/PAXTyxm7ly</a></p>
<p>— Erika Kirk (@MrsErikaKirk) <a href="https://twitter.com/MrsErikaKirk/status/2052823537329770691?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 8, 2026</a></p></blockquote>
<p>An emotional video accompanying the post features a montage of the couple in romantic settings and family photos, set to voiceovers from Charlie, Erika, and their daughter, Gigi, who was born in 2022.</p>
<p>The video begins with Erika saying, &#8220;I want to show you some pictures of mommy and daddy, and I want to tell you a story.&#8221;</p>
<p>A child&#8217;s voice later says, &#8220;I love you so much, daddy. I miss you, Dada.&#8221;</p>
<p>The montage ends with Charlie and Erika expressing their love for one another.</p>
<p>After Charlie was fatally shot on September 10, 2025, Erika, as her husband wished, took over Turning Point USA. She has since urged Americans to live according to the values her husband promoted, including a focus on faith.</p>
<p>Tyler Robinson, 23, has been charged in connection with the killing. During a memorial service in September, Erika publicly forgave him.</p>
<p>&#8220;That young man, that young man,&#8221; she said. &#8220;On the cross, our savior said, &#8216;Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.&#8217; That man, that young man, I forgive him. I forgive him because it was what Christ did, and is what Charlie would do.&#8221;</p>
<p>Since taking over Turning Point USA, Erika has become a more visible public figure, continuing to promote her husband&#8217;s political and religious values on the world stage despite aggressive smear campaigns from online commentators.</p>
