Erika Kirk, the widow of conservative activist and Turning Point USA (TPUSA) co-founder Charlie Kirk, addressed her grieving process for her late husband in a social media post one month after he was assassinated Sept. 10 during a TPUSA event at Utah Valley University.

“There is no linear blueprint for grief,” she wrote on Instagram Friday. “One day you’re collapsed on the floor, crying out the name Jesus in between labored breaths.”

Kirk has said she forgives Tyler Robinson, the man accused of killing her husband in Orem, Utah.

A video of the grieving widow weeping over her husband’s casket went viral. The couple met in 2018, and had two young daughters.

“And what I’ve realized through these past 30 days is that the greater the suffering, the purer the love,” she wrote. “And I have never loved him more than I do now.”
