Following the news of Charlie Kirk’s shocking death, fans have been digging into the past of his wife, Erika Kirk — and uncovered that she once appeared on Summer House.
In a resurfaced clip shared by TikTok user ShannyPants2, Erika makes an appearance on season 3 after Carl Radke sets her up with his former castmate, Jordan Verroi.
In the scene, the trio and Erika’s friend Sydney toast drinks at a bar in New York City, while Verroi gushes about Erika’s “beautiful blonde hair, her smile, her radiance,” noting “her outward beauty and inner beauty” is what he is looking for “in a woman.”
Carl explains during the episode that Erika is “religious,” which likely aligned with Verroi, who was open about his Christian faith during his brief time on the Bravo show.
Season 3 of Summer House premiered in March 2019. That same year, Erika revealed she had been offered the chance to be on Summer House full time while completing her degree at Liberty University in a 2019 Instagram post.
“To the one’s that sent me insane amounts of encouragement & prayer as I silently pursued this degree and made my own career sacrifices (like turning down being a cast member for @bravotv Summer House & other various TV show opportunities),” she wrote.
According to People, Charlie met Erika in 2018 and recalled in a 2024 Turning Point USA video that after a “very, very long dinner,” he knew “almost immediately” she was the one.
The couple got engaged in December 2020 before marrying in Scottsdale, Arizona, on May 8, 2021. They later welcomed two children.
Charlie was shot and killed at Utah Valley University on September 10. He was 31.
