Erika Kirk has been criticisedfor nearly every public move she has made since her husband, Charlie Kirk, was killed. The recent White House Correspondents' Dinner was no exception.
Following the shooting incident,Erika found herself at the centre of conspiracy theories. But unlike in the past, several people who are not necessarily supporters of Erika came to her defence after she was falsely linked to JD Vance once again. Since Charlie's passing, internet sleuths have repeatedly accused Erika of having an affair with the vice president of the United States.
On X, user @TheFungi669 uploaded a photo of Vance right before he was rushed out of the ballroom following the shooting incident. Standing beside him in the photo is White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, who was also evacuated from the venue.
But what looked like an innocent photo became the source of speculation after the user alleged that it was Erika standing beside Vance. The user also seemingly hinted at allegations of infidelity by quoting Vance as saying that his first thought was to protect his wife, Usha Vance.
'JD Vance: 'My first thought last night was to protect my wife.' Note: That's not Usha Vance, it's Erika Kirk,' the X user captioned the photo.

Netizens were quick to debunk the claim, pointing out that the woman in the photo was Leavitt and not Kirk. They also noted that Kirk was not wearing a black dress at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, making it easy to see that it was not her in the photograph.
