Charlie Kirk's Wife Erika Was 'Genuinely Rattled' After Learning He Was 'Cursed,' Megyn Kelly Claims

Megyn Kelly slammed feminist website Jezebel and online shop Etsy over an article suggesting witches cursed Charlie Kirk.

The journalist claimed on her show that it left the late activist's widow, Erika Kirk, "rattled."

On her "SiriusXM show," Megyn Kelly condemned the website for seemingly tormenting Charlie Kirk's family, demanding apologies and calling for Jezebel's closure.

Kelly has alleged that Erika Kirk, the widow of slain conservative figure Charlie Kirk, was left "genuinely rattled" after reading a piece in Jezebel that described hiring a witch to curse her husband.

The article, published on September 8 without a byline, appeared just two days before Charlie was fatally shot while speaking at Utah Valley University in Orem, Utah.

Jezebel initially kept the piece up with a note, distancing itself from the killing, but eventually removed the piece after mounting pressure.

However, Kelly argued on her SiriusXM program Tuesday that the harm was already done, claiming Erika and her family had seen the article and been disturbed by it.

The former Fox News host admitted she debated whether to discuss the story at all, calling it "out of left field," but ultimately felt compelled to address it in order to hold the outlet publicly accountable.

With apparent disdain, Kelly recapped the Jezebel piece in detail, emphasizing the publication's name with disgust.

According to the TV personality, the anonymous author had reached out to self-described witches on Etsy about placing a hex on the Turning Point USA founder, framing it as a petty act of mischief.

As reported by The Blast, the writer described wanting to punish what they called a "far-right misogynist with a bad haircut," but insisted the intent was not to call on "dark forces to cause him harm."

Instead, the curses listed included trivial annoyances: "I just want him to wake up every morning with an inexplicable zit. I want his podcast microphone to malfunction every time he hits record. I want his blue blazers to suddenly all be one size too small. I want one of his socks to always be sliding down his foot. I want his thumb to grow too big to tweet. To ruin his day with the collective feminist power of the Etsy coven would be my life's greatest joy."

Kelly explained that she returned to the story weeks after Charlie's killing for a reason: she wanted the public and the teams at Jezebel and Etsy to understand the fallout.

"Erika and Charlie Kirk heard about these curses, and that news genuinely rattled Erika, in particular," she said. "She knew Christian teaching on the subject, she loved Charlie, absolutely, and she was scared when she heard of the curses Jezebel had culled up."

Delivering a blistering condemnation, the journalist raged: "Why torture a family like this, a Christian believing family?"

She continued, "Why do this vile thing to a young couple, parents to two babies living in accordance with the gospel, deeply in love, and yes, political, but doing nothing other than speaking publicly about their views and their desires to make other people's lives better?"

Kelly, during her rant, slammed the website, saying the people behind it should be publicly identified.

"Who would do such a vile thing? Jezebel, that's who, and unbelievably, Etsy. And the people behind this evil should be called out," she said, per The Independent.

Kelly demanded that both outlets issue a full and public apology to Erika for introducing such distress during what turned out to be her husband's final days.

She went further, insisting Jezebel should shut down entirely and reveal the writer responsible, while Etsy should "stick to crafts and jewelry" instead of providing space for peddlers of black magic.

Kelly also blasted ABC for reinstating Jimmy Kimmel after his suspension over a monologue about Charlie, saying she does not "pity" the comedian.

Kimmel, 57, returned to "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" on Tuesday night following his brief suspension.

Kelly criticized Disney's decision to bring him back, arguing, "When you're a leftist, you don't really get canceled, unlike those on the right who are getting canceled and even killed," referencing Charlie's assassination.

On his return, Kimmel delivered an emotional message to Charlie's widow, Erika, but stopped short of apologizing to MAGA supporters for his earlier remarks accusing them of "desperately trying to characterize this kid who murdered Charlie Kirk as anything other than one of them and doing everything they can to score political points from it."
