Charlie Kirk's children were not physically present with him when he was shot. During the fatal shooting at Utah Valley University on September 10, 2025, his immediate family, including his wife Erika and their two young children (a 3-year-old daughter and a 1-year-old son), were present at the event location more generally but were quickly evacuated by security personnel and were not on stage or right next to him at the moment of the shooting. The shooting occurred while Charlie Kirk was speaking and responding to questions during a large event attended by about 3,000 people.
In summary, his children were at the venue but not close enough to witness the shooting directly; security acted promptly to remove them from the area for safety.
