Erika Kirk Sobs During Live Interview While Promoting Late Husband Charlie’s Book as She Admits 'Small Things' Trigger Her Post-Tragedy

Erika Kirk broke down in tears during an appearance on Fox & Friends on Tuesday, December 9, while discussing what she misses most about her late husband, Charlie Kirk.

"What really just hits me hard is when I'm in the grocery store and I see his hot sauce and I want to buy it," Erika said during the interview to promote the slain conservative activist's final book, Stop, in the Name of God: Why Honoring the Sabbath Will Transform Your Life.

"It's the little things, you know, his clothes everywhere..." she continued, choking up. "I know that people who have experienced loss totally understand what I'm saying. It's the small things that just get you."

The mom-of-two went on, "It's the visual of daddy coming home. To the world he was Charlie Kirk, to us he was the love of my life, my children's dad... I'm so sorry... It's those little things, he would walk through the door, drop his things, daddy's home..."

Erika, 37, added tearfully that the Turning Point USA founder — who was 31 when he was killed — would put his phone in a drawer when he would get home.

"I'd always say, 'Baby, I don't care what time you get home, home is here for you. Your food will never be cold. It might sit out for a little bit, but I'll reheat it,'" she explained.

Charlie was shot dead in the neck while debating the topic of gun violence during an event at Utah Valley University on September 10.

Nonetheless, the right-wing political activist's widow insisted his assassination was "not a gun problem" while speaking at the New York Times' Dealbook Conference on Wednesday, December 3.

Erika revealed she still supports the Second Amendment's right to bear arms, claiming her husband's murder was the result of "individuals that will always resort to violence."

"What I’m afraid of is that we are living in a day and age where they think violence is the solution to them not wanting to hear a different point of view," she declared, blaming Charlie's death on the current political divide and mental health problems.

Erika claimed: "That’s not a gun problem, that’s a human — deeply human — problem. That is a soul problem, that is a mental … that is a very deeper issue."

During the panel, she also spoke about forgiving his alleged assassin, Tyler Robinson, who was charged with killing the Turning Point USA co-founder.

Explaining "what it feels like to forgive someone," she said, "It frees you from a poison, and it frees you to be able to think clearly and have a moment where your heart is free and you’re not bound to evil."
