Erika Kirk Shares Touching Video of Late Husband Teaching Physics

Erika Kirk recently paid tribute to her late husband, conservative activist Charlie Kirk, by sharing a heartfelt video of him teaching their daughter the fundamentals of physics. The clip, which quickly garnered over 1.3 million likes on social media, captures a tender moment between the couple and their young child.

In the video, Charlie Kirk sits at a table with his daughter, using a sippy cup and a pair of sunglasses to explain Isaac Newton’s three laws of motion. With a playful tone, he engages his daughter while explaining that “an object at rest stays at rest,” and shares the principles of force and motion.

Erika Kirk captioned the video on Instagram, stating, “My favorite memories will forever be us raising our babies together. I love you [Charlie Kirk]. …tell Sir Isaac Newton that GG is ready for her quiz.” This touching message highlights the strong bond they shared, even as she navigates life after his passing.

Celebrating Family and Legacy

In the video, Charlie Kirk emphasizes Newton’s principles with enthusiasm. He humorously addresses his daughter’s misunderstanding of gravity, saying, “Okay, see that’s the issue is you keep on thinking when you drop [your sippy cup], it comes back up, but it doesn’t, okay?” His playful teaching style is evident as he encourages her curiosity and understanding.

The video serves as a poignant reminder of Charlie Kirk’s role as a devoted father and husband. Since his tragic assassination on September 10, 2025, Erika Kirk has shared various personal family moments, allowing followers to glimpse into their life beyond the political sphere.

At the time of his death, Charlie Kirk was the founder of Turning Point USA and was killed during an event at Utah Valley University. His legacy continues through his family, especially as Erika Kirk assumes significant leadership roles, including being elected as the new CEO and Chair of the Board of Turning Point USA.

The shared moments of their family life, especially through videos like this one, emphasize the importance of family connection and the impact of loss. As Erika Kirk continues to honor her husband’s memory, she also brings attention to their children, who remain a source of strength and inspiration.
