Please do not continue o mislead the public. Although not "specifically" covered through the VA coverage is available through Champ VA , depending on the % of disability the Veteran has been rated.

Your question is incomplete. That being said, we'll try to anticipate where you were going with it, and give an answer based on that anticipation.

A spouse or child would be; a boyfriend or girlfriend is not. If the girlfriend is the veteran, she is entitled to benefits - her boyfriend (or girlfriend, if applicable) would not be.
