ALLISON HOLKER BOSS REMEMBERS HUSBAND TWITCH 'I Know He's Still Protecting Us'

AFTER LOSING HER HUSBAND, STEPHEN 'TWITCH' BOSS, TO SUICIDE, THE DANCER IS HOLDING THEIR KIDS CLOSE-AND HEALING THROUGH PURPOSE

- MELODY CHIU

It’s the simple moments with her late husband, Stephen ‘tWitch’ Boss, that Allison Holker Boss misses most. After a busy day at work they’d often convene in the kitchen to cook dinner together. “Stephen would hold my back every time I walked past him,” she remembers. Then at the dining table with their daughters Weslie, 14, and Zaia, 3, and son Maddox, 7, “we’d have so many random conversations, and there was so much laughter,” the dancer and TV host continues. “Our love was so real and so loud. We always told people our house was like a choreographed dance.”

Five months ago Allison and Stephen had their final dance together. On Dec. 13 the beloved Ellen DeGeneres Show DJ turned executive producer shocked fans and left loved ones reeling when he died by suicide at age 40. “No one had any inkling that he was low. He didn’t want people to know,” says Allison, 35, sitting in the living room of the Los Angeles- area home she shared with Stephen for her first interview since his death. “He just wanted to be everyone’s Superman.”
