a MAGA conservative influencer and close ally to President Trump who was assassinated in Utah Wednesday — leaves behind his wife, a former beauty queen, and their two young children. The slain 31-year-old CEO of Turning Point USA was married to Erika Frantzve, a model, ministry leader, and former NCAA women’s basketball player at Regis University who was crowned Miss Arizona in 2012, according to her website.
Frantzve, 36, also hosts podcast “Midweek Rise Up,” a devotional series, and calls herself a “multidimensional philanthropist and social entrepreneur.” “From New York City to China, Erika has worked in the entertainment industry as a model, actress, and casting director, all while remaining grounded in her Christian faith. Her bold spirit and belief in God’s guidance have propelled her to pursue various impactful ventures.”
