Allison Holker, widow of the late Stephen “tWitch” Boss, is facing backlash after revealing private details about her husband’s life in her upcoming memoir, This Far: My Story of Love, Loss, and Embracing the Light. In an interview with People, Holker disclosed that she discovered a hidden stash of drugs, including mushrooms and pills, in Boss’ closet following his 2022 suicide.
These revelations have drawn sharp criticism from Boss’ close friend Courtney Ann Platt, who called Holker’s decision “tacky, classless, and opportunistic” in an Instagram post. Platt also accused Holker of treating Boss’ mother poorly and requiring funeral attendees to sign non-disclosure agreements. “You’re a living, breathing bulldozer,” Platt wrote, urging Holker to focus on her healing rather than tarnishing Boss’ legacy.
Boss’ brother, Dré Rose, supported Platt’s comments by reposting them on his Instagram and adding his agreement. Rose has also previously expressed concerns about strained family dynamics, citing limited communication regarding Boss’ children and their interactions with their grandmother. He described the situation as “disheartening” and criticized how the family’s grief has been handled.
Holker’s memoir, which aims to share her healing journey, has sparked a broader debate about balancing personal grief with public narratives. While some view the book as a candid reflection of her experiences, others argue that it risks overshadowing Boss’ positive legacy as a beloved dancer and TV personality.
