Country star Jason Aldean’s wife addresses the assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, praising his courage and calling the tragedy senseless.
Brittany Aldean sat down to address the « evil » killing of Charlie Kirk.
On Monday morning, Jason Aldean’s wife posted a video of herself speaking about Kirk on her Instagram story. She started off by telling fans it had taken her days to address the assassination without being « hysterical. »
« Obviously, this has affected so many people. Just look at the vigils and all the people coming together, talking about Jesus and going to church and rallying behind his family. Jason [Aldean] and I were really involved in Turning Point, and just being around him, it was just different because his courage just radiated from him. It takes so much to say the things he said, especially during times when other people won’t or wouldn’t », she said.
Brittany said Kirk was a fearless leader and her family is heartbroken over this « senseless, evil tragedy. »
« You couldn’t debate him, so you killed him is what it boils down to. It’s unbelievably evil », she continued.
Aldean asked her followers to keep praying for Kirk’s family and humanity « because it’s needed. »
Brittany’s remarks came days after her husband, Jason Aldean, honored Kirk during a show in Detroit on Sept. 11, the day after Kirk was assassinated during a speaking engagement in Orem, Utah.
