Allison Holker blasted for ‘tacky, classless’ comments on Stephen ‘tWitch’ Boss’ drug use

Family and friends of the late Stephen “tWitch” Boss are speaking up after his wife Allison Holker’s bombshell accusations.

Boss and Holker were married for nine years prior to his death on Dec. 13, 2022.

In an interview with People, published Jan. 7, Holker recalled the moment she discovered a “cornucopia” of drugs in their closet while preparing for his funeral.

“It was a really triggering moment for me because there were a lot of things I discovered in our closet that I did not know existed,” she told the magazine.

“It was very alarming to me to learn that there was so much happening that I had no clue (about),” she added.

Boss was born in Montgomery. A graduate of Lee High School, he went on to study dance and performance at Southern Union State Community College in Wadley and Chapman University.

A few hours after that interview was published, Stephen “tWitch” Boss’ loved ones responded with outrage.

“He wasn’t an addict. He smoked weed and was actively trying to quit. He wasn’t some junkie,” one X user identifying themselves as Boss’ cousin wrote.

As Holker’s interview continued to make headlines, more of Boss’ friends chose to speak up.

On Jan. 7, fellow dancer and friend of Boss, Courtney Platt, took to Instagram to share a lengthy caption alongside a screenshot of Holker sitting down with People.

“This is by far the most tacky, classless, opportunistic act I have ever seen in my entire life,” Platt began in the caption.

She then mentioned a “weird NDA” they were forced to sign at Boss’ funeral — claiming that Holker’s reasoning for it was to “not share anything or ruin his name, as if that was on anyone’s mind.”

“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 continued.

Platt was critical of Holker’s decision to drop the “Boss” from her last name on social media a mere 48 hours after he died.

“This is how you protect his children from any further humiliation, hurt and despair? This is what you want them to remember about him?” she wrote in the caption.

Platt also criticized Holker for “publishing a book shamelessly sharing the pages of your husband’s journal.”

“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,” she added.

Emmanuel Hurd, another friend of Boss, shared his own criticism of Holker in another lengthy caption.

“DEAR ALLISON….You have lied for the LAST TIME on my brother. He was “ABSOLUTELY” NO ADDICT!! You will say and do ANYTHING for a dollar!!” Hurd wrote.

Hurd also questioned her decision to have family and friends sign an NDA at his funeral and accused her of making her relationship with Boss seem better than it was.

“This whole thing made me sad,” read one comment on Holker’s latest Instagram post. “He’s gone. Why tear apart this name? I was fully supportive about you moving (on) and being happy but this paycheck was not worth disgracing his name.”

Holker responded: “I’ll always love you. Just trying to help people feel safe to ask for help and support.”
