Candace Owens has debuted the first episode of her new investigative series, Bride of Charlie, which pushes a lot of conspiracy theories surrounding Erika Kirk and the death of her husband, Charlie Kirk.
Charlie, 31, was murdered at a public event last September, leading his wife, 37, to be named CEO of Turning Point USA. The promotion has led to Owens, 36, spouting off many theories about the days leading up to Charlie’s death, as well as Erika’s rise within Turning Point USA.
Her new series opens with her alleging “something is not right with Erika Kirk” — but ultimately fails to pinpoint what exactly she’s accusing her of.
Owens, who is not an investigative journalist, reportedly spent the 65-minute live stream seemingly nitpicking details about Erika’s public backstory, alleging discrepancies and even going as far as to claim her mother isn’t actually her real mom.
At one point, she reportedly shows images of Erika as a child throwing up what she believes are “Freemason hand signs.”
Owens has faced severe backlash over her decision to do an in-depth deep dive into Charlie’s widow, which essentially casts doubt on the mom of two without naming any real crime or point of guilt. On Tuesday, February 24, the right-wing influencer’s former boss, Ben Shapiro, suggested on X that Erika should sue Owens.
Meghan McCain also took to X shortly after Owens released the trailer for Bride of Charlie, calling it “Pure, unadulterated, f***ing evil.”
“Who in God’s name would put a woman whose husband was brutally assassinated in front of the entire world through this?” she wrote. “I am so upset by this, I am just so deeply sorry Erika and her family have to be put through this.”
