Tyler Robinson, the suspect accused of fatally shooting Turning Point USA co-founder Charlie Kirk at a speaking event at Utah Valley University (UVU) on Wednesday, had a romantic partner who was in the process of transitioning from male to female, Utah Governor Spencer Cox told NBC News' Kristen Welker on Sunday on Meet the Press .

In a further appearance with CNN on Sunday, Cox said: "This partner has been very cooperative, had no idea that this was happening." The FBI told Fox News that Robinson lived with Twiggs in St. George, Utah, which is four hours from UVU.

FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino confirmed on The Megyn Kelly Show on Tuesday that the name of Robinson's boyfriend is Lance Twiggs.
