Erika Kirk responds to rumours she's in a new relationship

Charlie Kirk's widow has hit out at the 'deeply disturbing' claims that she is in a new relationship less than a year after his assassination.

The spouse of the late Turning Point USA (TPUSA) founder, Erika, has insisted that allegations suggesting she has grown close to one of the 31-year-old's 'dear friends' have no merit.

In a fiery post, she stated that the claims made by far-right influencer Collin Scott Campbell were 'lies' - while the man she is accused of dating said Campbell was 'making things up under the guise of journalism'.

Erika has taken on a very public-facing role in wake of Charlie being shot dead on 10 September, 2025, during a rally at Utah Valley University.

She assumed the role as CEO of the conservative organisation launched by her husband, TPUSA, appeared to become extremely chummy with President Donald Trump and has been publicly rubbing shoulders with celebrities.

And according to Campbell, the man behind the X account 'Project Constitution', she has also somehow found time to acquire 'a new boyfriend'.

Rumours about Erika Kirk and Blake Wynn being in a relationship

On Thursday (28 May), he shared a post on social media alleging that Erika had been 'spotted getting handsy' with Celebrity Poker Tour founder Blake Wynn at the swanky Beverly Hills Hotel in Los Angeles.

Campbell claimed he 'confirmed' the rumours after conversing with two sources, one of whom he described as a 'trusted eyewitness who personally' saw the pair at the hotel's Bar Nineteen12 on the evening of 14 May.

In the post, he claimed Erika and Wynn had been spotted 'getting very intimate', as he said: "They were hugging, kissing... the source also saw them shopping together earlier that day at Neiman Marcus.

"Even more damning? A quick search turns up nearly a dozen photos of Erika and Blake together at multiple events over time. They weren’t strangers. This looks like a relationship that was already happening."

Erika Kirk's response to the relationship rumours

Erika then directly responded to Campbell's post to address the allegations that she has struck up a relationship with the nephew of casino mogul Steve Wynn - and claimed she wasn't even in LA on 14 May.

"Every single word here is a lie," she fumed. "Charlie’s love will last me a lifetime. The Lord is the only one who can ever fill that most painful void.

"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.

"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."

Wynn also lambasted Campbell online, while insisting he is 'not dating Erika Kirk'.

In a post also shared to X, he wrote: "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."

Campbell responded, asking him to provide proof of his whereabouts on 14 May to verify that he was not at the Beverly Hills Hotel, adding: "There is always a possibility that the witness is incorrect about you being the guy and I am open to that, but I need further details to dispute it.

"My only motive is finding the truth, so I would be happy to correct the record if you can show me something that proves you were somewhere else."

The businessman then responded saying: "Where you stand is you have a tag team of Helen Keller & AI-generated audio as your source, and I feel bad for anyone that follows your garbage."

This is not the first time Erika and Campbell have gone up against one another, as her legal team previously sent him a cease-and-desist in March of this year.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the letter stated that Campbell had made 'false and defamatory statements' about the mother-of-two on social media about her allegedly being involved in Charlie's assassination, as well as claiming that she supposedly had links to Jeffrey Epstein.

Erika's lawyers said that Campbell's online outbursts 'caused tremendous damage' to both Charlie's widow and TPUSA.
