Charlie Kirk's wife, Erika Frantzve, and their two young children were reported to be present at the Utah Valley University event where he was shot, according to several news sources including the BBC, People, and Economic Times. However, there was some initial confusion about whether Erika and the children were physically at the university campus when the shooting occurred; the BBC later stated that this detail was unclear. Nonetheless, multiple reports affirm that Erika and the children were present at or near the event site when Charlie Kirk was fatally shot. Erika has been described as deeply devastated following the incident, and she has remained mostly private since then.
