Stephen ‘tWitch’ Boss’s Widow Allison Holker MOVES ON With Her Life
On December 13, 2022, Stephen ‘tWitch’ Boss died at the age of 40. The dancer and DJ rose to fame on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and left a legacy of joy and happiness. With over a decade in the entertainment industry, fans grieved his death alongside his wife and children. Now, one year and eight months after the loss, his widow, Allison Holker, is establishing a new normal with their three kids.
Allison Holker and Stephen “tWitch” Boss met on the set of So You Think You Can Dance. The pair reconnected during an afterparty for SYTYCD season 7 and dated for a few years before marrying in 2013. Holker and Boss quickly became one of the most beloved dance duos on TV and social media.
The couple enjoyed nine years of marriage together. During this time, Holker and Boss had three children: Weslie, Maddox, and Zaia. The pair’s last Instagram post before Boss’s death by suicide involved an adorable video montage. The family of five enjoyed the 2022 holiday season, decorated the Christmas tree, and spent time together.
Since the family’s terrible tragedy, Holker has posted on Instagram about being “stronger than you could ever imagine” and finding “the courage to hold each other up.” The former Design Star: New Gen host often shares videos and photos of her children growing up and her continued dance career. Recently, Holker and her two youngest children visited Turks and Caicos, an archipelago of 40 islands in the Atlantic.
The British Territory southeast of the Bahamas is known for its incredible beaches, luxury resorts, and world-class scuba diving. Holker shared a series of snaps from the trip, including photos of Maddox, 8, and Zaia, 4. The 36-year-old captioned the Instagram post, “Turks and Caicos: thanks for being so good to us! We had the most incredible time @beachesturksandcaicos @beachesresorts @cupshe.”
Holker notably tagged Beaches Turks & Caicos and Cupshe in her post, indicating that the vacation was likely a sponsored trip. Beaches Turks & Caicos is a family-friendly, all-inclusive resort with a massive waterpark, 19 restaurants, and a 12-mile beach. Holker also included Cupshe in her post. The swimwear and beachwear brand is known for partnering with influencers and celebrities.
These partnerships certainly align with the dancer’s professional goals. Holker has continued to build her career by focusing on her work as a choreographer and social media influencer. She often shares dance content and collaborations that resonate with her fans. Since the loss of her husband, Holker has used her platform to honor his legacy and promote mental health awareness.
