Candace Owens Questions Erica Kirke’s Real Date of Birth in New Documentary

conservative political commentator Candace Owens is questioning her authenticity. deceased friend Charlie KirkDate of birth of Erica Kirk (née Frantzoff), widow of.

“I’ll tell you my personal opinion and my experience with her,” Owens, 36, said in the Wednesday, Feb. 25 episode of the docuseries charlie’s bride. “What shocks me about Erica is not the fact that she lied, which we will prove to you over and over again, but more importantly I don’t know if she realizes she is lying.”

“The version of what (Erica) told us today or yesterday was just recently downloaded into her mind, so she believes it to be true,” Owens said.

“(It’s) like a false memory or something,” Owens argued. “I mean, I’m not sure she fully realizes she’s lying because some of the lies are just so stupid.”

The docuseries takes a deep dive into Erica’s childhood, including possible differences during her birthday. Owens pointed out alleged inconsistencies in Erica’s family tree and shared a “conspiracy theory” that Erica’s aunt, Karamay actually be her biological mother. (Erica, 37, has always maintained that her biological parents are kent and Lori Frantzoff.)

Owens challenged Erica, saying she was born on November 20, 1988, in Cincinnati, Ohio. Commentators showed an alleged excerpt from Kent and Lori’s 1998 divorce filing, in which they allegedly claimed their daughter was born on November 22 of that year. (Owens clarified that Lowry filed for divorce and had only “four statements of fact,” or very little personal information.)

Owens also questioned Kent and Lori’s statement in their divorce filing that they were married on November 20, 1995, which was Erica’s seventh birthday. The separation agreement accompanying the divorce petition gave an entirely different date of marriage: November 7, 1982.

Owens also disputed Erica’s past claims about being raised primarily by a single mother after her parents divorced in 1998, claiming there was conflicting information suggesting Kent was still actively involved in her life at the time.

“I’ve talked to classmates, past boyfriends, and there’s general confusion as to why Erica is now saying she doesn’t have a relationship with Kent,” Owens claimed. “Also, if we remove Kent, Erica grew up with her stepfather (Larry) at her home. “

In the audio, Erica describes her late husband’s public commemoration as “the event of a century” and says the organization has “sold over 200,000 merchandise.”

“Now it’s very quick to get into the acceptance phase,” Owens told her audience. “We know everyone grieves differently. In my imagination, I just thought she would be sadder.”

Meanwhile, Erica — whose husband Charlie is Received Presidential Commendation Donald Trump The Turning America founder will be honored during her State of the Union address on Tuesday, February 24, in honor of her 37th birthday on February 20.

“I’ve always loved celebrating you, maybe because it’s a reflection of how beautifully you’ve always celebrated me. I’ve grown old romantically with you, the love of my life,” she shared on Instagram. “I used to wonder what it would look like if we had wisdom lines on our faces. You always told me how much you wished I could keep my hair long, even though we were both gray, and I always wore white (because it was your favorite color I wore).”

The activist continued, “We’ll laugh at the fact that you’re probably still on a college campus in your 80s, attending ‘prove me wrong’ campus events because you love those students. And then we all start crying when we talk about our kids growing up and having families of their own. Full lives.”

“Today, I find myself romantically still growing old with you in a way, just in a different location,” Erica continued. “So as I blow out the candles this year with a deep pain that I pray no one else will feel, I am reminded that every day, every moment, every birthday… you are with me. Not in the ways I could have ever dreamed of, but in the ways God graciously allows.”

Charlie also leaves behind two of his and Erica’s children, a son and a daughter, whose names they chose to keep private.
