“I was supposed to be standing next to him at every college this October,” she explained. “Instead, I sit here with a broken heart, devastated beyond words.”
Describing his killing as a “political assassination,” Savannah shared the pain she feels for Charlie’s wife Erika Frantzve Kirk, who shared two young kids with the conservative activist.
“I’m truly grieving for his wife, Erica,” the Growing Up Chrisley star continued. “One of the kindest, most loving human beings I’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing.”
She also remarked on the impact Charlie made on the world by holding political debates in public, sharing, “He created a movement. His legacy is one that I hope I can build half of for my kids.”
In a message to Charlie, Savannah concluded, “You changed America. You changed me. You changed my family. Rest easy, my friend. Heaven has gained a warrior.”
