Candace Owens is not staying quiet, and just hours after facing heavy backlash over her new YouTube series, she fired back online. On February 24, 2026, Candace Owens released the trailer for “Bride of Charlie: An Investigative Series” on her YouTube channel, which has more than 5 million subscribers. The series focuses on Erika Kirk, the widow of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, who was assassinated in September 2025 at an event in Utah while giving a speech. The first episode premieres February 25.
The teaser spread fast across social media, and some conservative voices called it brave. Others said it crossed a line by targeting a woman who lost her husband months ago. As criticism grew, Candace Owens posted on X, writing, “Zionists are putting in real work hours promoting our upcoming series. I would like to extend to them all my deepest gratitude. We are a small team and couldn’t do it without your steadfast commitment to hysterics.🙏 See you tomorrow.”
