As Allison Holker geared up for the poignant funeral rites of Stephen "tWitch" Boss, the esteemed producer and DJ for Ellen DeGeneres, Whose life tragically met an untimely demise in the year 2022., she encountered a chilling revelation. Hidden away in a shoebox, tucked in the recesses of his closet, Holker uncovered a "cornucopia" of various narcotics—mushrooms and pills alike, as she later disclosed to People magazine. The accomplished dancer recounted the haunting discovery, which unfolded as she searched diligently for an apt burial attire for Boss. "It was a moment deeply soul-wrenching for me, uncovering myriad unknown secrets tucked away in our closet," she confided to the outlet, her voice laden with emotion. "It marked a harrowing chapter in my life, realizing this concealed reality, but it also served as a catalyst for understanding the profound struggles and concealments he bore. There must have been an overwhelming sense of shame that weighed heavily on him."
Holker further disclosed that Boss's journals provided glimpses into his inner turmoil stemming from childhood trauma, possibly sexual abuse. "He bore his pain alone, unwilling to burden others," she emphasized, while exhorting anyone silently enduring similar struggles to seek the support they deserve. Boss had been a staple of The Ellen DeGeneres Show from 2014 until his untimely demise in 2022, leaving behind Holker and their trio of cherished children at the age of 40.
