Stephen ‘tWitch’ Boss’ family blindsided by Allison Holker’s tell-all interview: ‘We shouldn’t have to find out’ online

Stephen “tWitch” Boss’ mother and brother are speaking out against Allison Holker’s memoir and subsequent press tour exposing the late dancer’s deepest and darkest secrets.

“I think people deserve the ability to share their story. I get that,” Connie Boss Alexander told “CBS Mornings” on Friday.

“But how it was presented and how it was on a cover of a magazine and there was a public, you know, launch or campaign about it, we shouldn’t have to find out about that … in the media. We’re a family.”

Boss died by suicide in a Los Angeles hotel room in December 2022. He was 40 years old.

Holker, who had been married to the DJ since 2013 and shared three children with him, made all his relatives sign an NDA at his funeral.

Her eldest daughter, Weslie, 16, shared in January that her mom introduced the legal agreement to prevent people from taking photos of her late adoptive father since he had an open casket viewing.

However, Holker, 37, went on to release a memoir, “This Far: My Story of Love, Loss, and Embracing the Light,” in which she shared private journal entries detailing struggles that Boss never made public.

The “So You Think You Can Dance” alum revealed in the book that she allegedly discovered her late husband had been hiding drugs from her, including mushrooms, pills and “other substances.”

She also shared that Boss allegedly left her with a $1 million tax debt due to his “reckless” spending.

Boss’ brother, Dre Rose, told Gayle King on “CBS Mornings” that he would like to see the journals “in its entirety.”

“I think those journals will tell you a lot,” he said. “I think there’s things in those journals that are good and bad, but I also believe there’s journals about his personal life, his marital life that are in there.”

Rose shared that he believed Holker had been “cherry-picking” stories from his brother’s personal writings, and concluded, “If we’re just gonna be completely honest, talk about it all.”

Alexander said she would also want to read the journal entries to “feel closer” to her late son because those are “his thoughts” and it would perhaps give her a “clearer understanding” of what happened.

She said, “I know who he was and what he was thinking from time to time, so yeah, I think I would.”

Boss’ family first called out Holker last month when her cover story with People magazine was released.

“He wasn’t an addict. He smoked weed and was actively trying to quit. He wasn’t some junkie,” Elle, a cousin of the former “Ellen DeGeneres Show” DJ, posted via X at the time.

She added of Holker, “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.”

Alexander previously said on Instagram that she was “appalled” over the claims made about her son.

“The recent publications spreading untruths about Stephen have crossed every line of decency,” she said.

“As his mother, I will not let these accusations go unanswered. We will not stand by while his name and legacy are tarnished.”

Holker denied disgracing Boss’ name and said in her defense that she only wanted to share her story and what she experienced with her late husband to “help other people.”

The widow added via an Instagram Story in January, “I hope that by sharing our full story maybe I can help someone else who might see themselves or a loved one in Stephen.

“I hope that maybe they can catch some of the red flags that I missed before it’s too late.”

A rep for Holker did not immediately return Page Six’s request for comment on Boss’ mom and brother’s latest interview with “CBS Mornings.”
