Stephen “tWitch” Boss’ family and friends are blasting his wife, Allison Holker, for airing out his alleged drug use — and for allegedly making them sign NDAs in order to attend the dancer’s funeral.
Shortly after Holker’s new interview with People dropped on Tuesday, in which she addressed her husband’s tragic death in 2022, one of Boss’ cousins, Elle, took to X to defend her late family member.
“He wasn’t an addict. He smoked weed and was actively trying to quit. He wasn’t some junkie,” she tweeted, adding that Holker has allegedly kept Boss’ three kids — Weslie, 16 (whom Boss adopted), Maddox, 8, and Zaia, 5 — from seeing his relatives.
“I’m so tired of keeping my f–king mouth shut bro. You did our family so mf dirty,” she added in a separate tweet, before alleging that Holker made Boss’ family and friends sign NDAs to attend his funeral.
“Yeah idgaf about an NDA. This crazy woman made me and his actual family including his mother sign an NDA just to even attend the funeral,” Elle claimed.
“She’s been trying to tarnish his legacy and refuses to let the Boss family see the children. Only to exploit and LIE on my cousin. Hell no.”
Courtney Ann Platt, a close friend of the former “Ellen DeGeneres Show” DJ/dancer, echoed Elle’s comments in a lengthy Instagram post.
“This is by far the most tacky, classless, opportunistic act I have ever seen in my entire life,” she wrote on Instagram, referring to Holker’s latest interview with People, in which she promoted her forthcoming memoir, “This Far.”
“We all had to sign some weird NDA to attend his funeral (even his own mother who you’ve treated like garbage this entire time and let’s just remember you wouldn’t have even had a husband if it wasn’t for her) not to share anything or ruin his name as if that was on anyone’s mind in the first place and here you go and write a book with all the dirty laundry smearing his name and attempting to dim the bright loyal, loving, light that was your husband, my friend.”
Platt — who claimed Holker dropped Boss’ last name from her “social media platforms 48 hours after he passed” — went on to slam the professional dancer for publishing a book “shamelessly sharing the pages” of Boss’ journal.
“What a joke. Yes, he took his own life which is a fact all of us still can’t fathom and he was clearly having mental health issues, hurting so deeply and this is your example of empathy? Of your love?” the former New York Knicks City dancer, 36, added.
“This smear campaign for a buck is absolutely not what he would have ever wanted. No matter how bad he was hurting. Not for second. You’re a living, breathing bulldozer. Stick to your own demons. Shame on you Allison, shame on your money hungry team. Let my friend Rest in Peace not your PR.”
Boss’ brothers re-shared Platt’s post on their Instagram Stories.
Boss’ cousin Zachary Boss Silas also said he had to sign an NDA to attend the late star’s funeral because Holker claimed it would “protect his legacy.”
Ryan Guzman, who co-starred in “Step Up Revolution” with Boss, also reacted to Holker’s interview, writing on his Instagram Stories that it made him “sick to his stomach” and that he felt “the same way” as Platt described in her lengthy caption.
