Erika Kirk has become the center of attention on social media after claims surfaced that she has a new boyfriend. However, the rumors did not sit well with her, and she has now issued a savage response following the bombshell allegation.
Erika Kirk lost her husband, Charlie Kirk, in September last year. The conservative influencer was shot dead during a rally at Utah Valley College in Orem, Utah, leaving his two children without a father.
Since then, Erika Kirk has taken on the CEO role at Turning Point USA, the conservative organization founded by her husband. She has continued making public appearances, and while many support her, she has also faced criticism and been called a grifter.
On Thursday, a bombshell claim about Erika Kirk allegedly finding love again began circulating online. The X account Project Constitution, which, according to the Daily Mail, often promotes far-right conspiracy theories about Turning Point USA, claimed that Erika Kirk had a new boyfriend.
Not just any man, but Charlie Kirk’s friend, Blake Wynn.
“CONFIRMED: Erika Kirk Has A New BOYFRIEND — She Was SPOTTED Getting Handsy with New Jewish Boyfriend BLAKE WYNN (Nephew of Casino Mogul Steve Wynn) at Exclusive Beverly Hills Hotel,” Collin Scott Campbell, the person behind the account, wrote on X.
Erika Kirk issues savage response after bombshell boyfriend rumor
The post claimed that, according to a “trusted eyewitness,” Erika and Blake Wynn were seen at Bar Nineteen12, a bar inside the Beverly Hills Hotel in Los Angeles, allegedly “getting very intimate.”
It didn’t take long for Erika Kirk to respond, and she did so with a blunt and direct statement. The post quickly went viral, prompting the widow of Charlie Kirk to set the record straight.
“Every single word here is a lie. Charlie’s love will last me a lifetime. The Lord is the only one who can ever fill that most painful void,” Erika Kirk wrote, adding that she was nowhere near the bar on the date claimed by the X account.
“On May 14th, I was home in Arizona, celebrating my son’s 2nd birthday. Blake (who is about to be engaged to his longtime gf) was a dear friend of my husband’s and I am grateful for his continued support, just like hundreds of others.”
The Turning Point CEO continued, “Your deranged obsession with me and blatant disregard for any form of truth whatsoever is deeply disturbing, and I am praying you get the help you so clearly need. Brush off the Dorito dust and go touch grass.”
“I am not dating Erika Kirk”
Blake Wynn also addressed the rumors involving him and Erika.
“Blake Wynn here… I hate to be the bearer of bad news to the cesspool of bots and X users that spend their entire day making things up under the guise of journalism, but I am not dating Erika Kirk,” he wrote on X following her response.
