Um, no.
That's being spread as false information.
Right now all that's known is that the shooter lived in a rental house, so other people lived there as well, and that there could be a trans person living there but that it's "not known" what the "Relationship" was.
But of course spreading falsehood is something a certain section are really, REALLY good at doing right now. For obvious reasons.
Utah's Republican Governor Spencer James Cox said Tyler Robinson was in a relationship with his roommate - who was in the process of transitioning - though his motive is unclear and officials have not said whether the relationship is relevant to their investigation.

Lance Twiggs was named as the roommate of accused Charlie Kirk assassin Tyler Robinson by
The New York Post and
Daily Mail.
After those reports,
Wisconsin Right Now reached two family members of Twiggs by phone on Sept. 13. The first family member declined to comment and hung up. The second family member confirmed the information in the Post and Daily Mail stories but also provided additional details to Wisconsin Right Now that no one has reported yet.
For starters, the family member – who has not spoken to other members of the news media – alleged that Twiggs harbored animosity toward conservatives and Christians, confirmed that Twiggs was transgender/transitioning, and said that Robinson was allegedly Twiggs’ boyfriend. (To be clear, authorities have not accused Lance Twiggs of criminal wrongdoing or culpability in connection with Kirk’s death. A roommate was mentioned in the Utah governor’s press conference, although he was not named. The governor said the roommate
gave authorities messages from Robinson that referred to a rifle and bullet engravings.)
“They did live together,” the family member of Lance Twiggs told Wisconsin Right Now in the exclusive phone interview on Sept. 13, referring to Twiggs and Robinson.
The Kirk suspect
“He (Lance Twiggs) is very angry with anyone who is supportive of conservative ideals and Christian values,” alleged the family member.
“As far as I know, he was not going by another name. I just know he was in the process of transitioning. I know he was trying to take different medications,” alleged the relative of Lance, whom the family member had avoided for about four years out of concern over Twiggs’ alleged temperament.
The relative told WRN about having heard second-hand from other family members that Lance had allegedly “wished horrible things on people. I’ve really distanced. There was (allegedly) evil inside and only getting worse.”
A Fox News journalist reported, via sources, on Sept. 13, that Robinson was living with a transgender roommate but did not name the roommate. Robinson “was living with a transgender partner who was in the process of transitioning from male to female,” The Post confirmed. The Post and Daily Mail reported that they were not able to confirm or deny whether Twiggs was transgender or whether Twiggs was the same “transgender roommate” referred to by the Post.
The shaken relative, who almost broke down into tears at one point during the interview, asked not to be named. WRN tracked down the family member through datamining sites that showed the familial linkage to Twiggs.
The relative alleged that Lance Twiggs is “not mentally well at all.” Asked whether Lance was transgender and transitioning, the family member alleged, “This is true. I can’t be sure of when it started. I have suspicions it would have been about four years.”
The family member alleged to WRN that Robinson was Lance Twiggs’ boyfriend. “I knew he had a boyfriend. I never met him. None of us had.” The relative was not sure how long they were together.
Asked how the relative knew Robinson was allegedly Lance Twiggs’ boyfriend, the relative responded: “Lance disclosed that. Not to me directly. He wanted to have lunch with other family members to introduce his boyfriend.”
The relative said the relative had avoided having anything to do with Lance Twiggs for about four years.
“I know the reason I had nothing to do with him is he (Lance Twiggs) is full of evil and hatred,” the family member alleged about Lance Twiggs. “While this is extremely shocking, I was afraid he might hurt someone,” the family member alleged, saying this belief was based on “things he would say to family members.” The relative declined to be more specific.
“For at least four years, I haven’t talked to him,” the relative alleged of Lance. “I did not want him around my personal family. He’s not a healthy person. He is very angry with anyone who is supportive of conservative ideals and Christian values.”
The relative expressed great devastation over Kirk’s murder.
“We feel collectively as a family – we feel sick. We were all very devastated that this happened to Charlie Kirk,” said the relative, voice breaking emotionally. “It should never have happened. We liked him with the things he believed in. This shouldn’t happen in our country at all.”
The family member said the devastation came from having “it come in any way close this way. It was completely unexpected.”
The relative learned that Robinson was accused of shooting Kirk on Friday morning. “Tyler, I don’t know him at all,” added the relative. According to the relative, the Twiggs family is generally conservative and Christian, so Lance’s beliefs deviated from his family’s political stances.
“I hate what happened,” said the relative of Kirk’s death.
What the Post, Daily Mail & Fox News Have Reported About Lance Twiggs
Although a relative confirmed to The Post that Twiggs was Robinson’s roommate and the news site verified that Twiggs “resided at the same address where Robinson lived,” the Post stopped short of reporting that Twiggs is the transgender roommate referred to in the other reports. The relative the Post spoke to declined to say whether Twiggs was transitioning (and was apparently not the same family member interviewed by WRN as our source had not been interviewed yet by anyone).
Public records confirm that Twiggs, 22, lived in an apartment in Saint George.
Wisconsin Right Now reached a second relative of Twiggs by phone who said, “I have no comment, sorry,” and hung up.
