Allison Holker Boss Opens Up for the First Time After tWitch's Death | PEOPLE
/ people - Розваги
Twitch's death hit me so hard and I don't even know him. I can imagine what this precious family is going through. I've followed his career from the beginning. He was such a beautiful person. It broke my heart when I heard what happened. I love that Allison continues to talk about mental health and his legacy in a positive way. Sending love and hugs.
I never thought I could be so effected by someone I've never met. His death is so incredibly hard to deal with. We ❤ you Allison.
@Sarah Lyman --- I feel the same way; to have never met someone and feel so touched by his life and death is really a testament to his spirit. I'm so saddened that he felt he could not go on, yet he was so loved. I'm heartbroken for his wife and kids.
I agree
Me too. It hurts me too. This man was hurting so badly. It's just so much.
Me too. I always feel so happy when I see someone do well who seems like a genuinely good soul. Because the norm seems to be that the most ruthless are the ones who typically prevail. Wish someone/something could have prevented his death.
Augh…I don’t think I have ever been so heartbroken over a celebrities death. ❤ Allison so many people around the world are holding your family with the deepest of love and faith you all will find your way and truly live in his love and thrive after his death. ❤❤❤
Exactly. ❤
Totally agree. Still in shock!
Agree…so hard to get my head around. She so strong.
Same here. I hurt for everyone. I find myself saying why Twitch? 😢 Ita heart breaking.
Every deatth matters not just him 🙄. And not only celebrities
Allison Holker is the embodiment of grace. So inspired by her strength.
Yes she is ❤❤
Absolutely ❤
She has so much strength that she never shed a single tear for him. Ugh.
Ugh. She just seems so fake.
I know from experience, she is shedding tears when she's in private. 💙
You can tell she's doing her work in life. What a beautiful human.
Its amazing she's able to do this interview 5 months after. Steven is still with them in spirit. She is so well spoken and honest.
She’s the sweetest. I loved her energy and patience when she was a pro on DWTS.
My heart breaks for her and her beautiful children.
She is so strong! This is so heartbreaking. He was one of the greatest people on the planet and it’s sad he didn’t realize that. I am so sorry for her and the kids and Ellen and her crew. My prayers through the tough times and thank you for being such an inspiration to us all. Rip Twitch! You are so loved!
I think it has more to do with what voices are within one’s own mind, and has nothing to do with how loved you feel from others.
Saying he didn't realize that is not true. It's the pain that overtakes the reality of what he had...emotional pain is worse than breaking a leg
@@balzoemg8415 Read the sentence again.
She’s not strong, she’s manipulative. The family has been airing her out.
Money is the root to all evil
I can not imagine what she and her children have been going through. My heart breaks for her and those babies. She’s doing a great job. I lost my dad as an adult but I couldn’t imagine as a child.
It's amazing how calm and positive Allison is during this interview; bless her heart and those of her beautiful three children. Sending them love & light ~ 🕊️
Is she TOO 'calm and positive' -- like she just really didn't care anymore when this happened?
I personally feel like it’s because he was right there next to her, helping her to get through the interview ❤️ I still feel so sad whenever I see anything about him. I just can’t imagine 💔
@@oliviamiller3857😪😭
@@vegskater1741 I dont think that its because she doesnt care............I think she is at the stage re victim of suicide where she has to try show that she is okay. I dont think she is okay though but because she is doing so well for the kids then she is doing okay in her head. What an absolute tragedy this poor woman has been through - going through. Its still early days as well
Agree it’s a long road. Her kids lives are forever changed. This is a serious trauma and she seems to be trying to figure out how to move through it. Feel annoyed that people felt a need to do box her into this glossy afternoon special when the convo could be about the realities of suicide and suicide prevention. Wishing her and her family lots of healing on the road ahead.
As a retired pro dancer and fan of Twitch, I loved him SO much. God bless his family. Allison is clearly such a wonderful soul - her children are so lucky she is their mom, and I wish all of them the very best. ❤
She’s incredibly strong. Sending so much strength and light to their family 🤍
yea psychopath strong
Your husband brought so much joy to me on so many days. I remember when he was on, so you think you can dance and my niece, and I absolutely fell in love with his energy and his smile and of course his talent. I can’t even imagine the level of joy he brought to you and your children. I’m so sorry for your loss Allison. You have the world supporting you in our hearts.
She does NOT have 'the world' supporting her. There are many people who think something else happened other than what she is saying.
@@vegskater1741 😶
@@vegskater1741 she has many supporting her. Is just the people who instantly want to turn it into something it wasn’t and suddenly it’s her fault. All these people suddenly turning into detectives when they have no idea why he did it or what was going on inside his head. Sick of everyone turning all things into conspiracies.
@@vegskater1741 On the wrong you tube for conspiracy theories...
Sorry for the children's loss.
Alison was my absolute favorite dancer on that first season of SYTYCD, and I loved watching tWitch-the humor and joy he brought to his dancing. Years later I wondered what had happened to Alison Holker, and was delighted to learn that the two of them were a couple and had a family. Likewise, hearing of his death was devastating. I’m not surprised that she is handling this with such beauty and grace, just so sad for what everyone lost.
I was devastated when I heard about his passing. I am happy to see they are doing okay and trying to stay positive. It’s inspiring to me. He will be greatly missed, but I’m happy she’s still wanting to spread joy and happiness.
Wow. This is a beautiful and strong, loving wide and mother. What a role model. May your family continue to feel Stephen's love 💗💗💗
woman are calling obvious psychopaths role models now so much for female intuition
Allison is such a beautiful person inside and out. I feel so bad for her, but she seems so strong!
She truly is a strong person. I cannot imagine what she is going through. The fact that she gets up everyday and pushes herself is so admiral.
I can’t help but to think that if things were as good as she says, and I don’t doubt that they were, what went wrong? I think that’s what people would really like to know. How does this happen to a family that is so joyous and supportive?
This is what I’m wondering too. But it’s still so fresh, she might be more open in the future. Not that she’s not being open, but there is an elephant in this conversation.
That's what mental health issues do. They consume you regardless of what's seen on the surface. It's like asking someone who has a broken bone, "why is your bone broken if everything in your life is going so well?" ❤
Sometimes the happiest or what appears as the happiest might not truthfully be. And he clearly kept it to himself clearly to, horrible deep place to be in. Heartbreaking but its more common than you might think
It was a personal battle he was going thru himself. Depression isn’t a choice …I go thru it everyday.
Ffrom what Kallan(sp?) has mentioned they would "check in" with each other. So there was for sure mental health stuff going on, but we all mask it so well that no one ever expects someone to die from suicide. :(
I give her so much credit. To be able to turn negative to positive is extremely hard. I don’t think he had one enemy. He’s so missed.
She’s just an amazing woman who is going through one of the hardest things you can imagine. I feel for her and her kids the pain and heartbreak they are in. I’m so proud of the way they’re handling this situation & I hope they know we all support them.❤❤❤❤
My heart breaks for her and those beautiful babies, but they will make it through as a family. God bless. 🙏🏽
Her eyes shows the pain her heart feels 🥹
I love that she is so strong, we all know she is still suffering inside, but she chooses to stay a pillar of her family. Prayers and hugs to them. 🙏🏻🙌🏻
For anyone out there struggling with anything at all, you are so so loved ❤ If you've never heard it from anyone else or just haven't heard it in a while, *I* love you and think you are incredibly special 💗
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
The world became a better place the day you were born. It is a better place because you are here. It will be just a little darker when you leave it, so please stay for a very long time. Thank you for being here. I love you, too!
This took strength and courage. So much love to Allison and the Boss Family. ✨✝️❤️✨
What an incredibly well- adjusted human being. She is a class act.
So so classy. Just wow
She is a little tooo adjusted. That woman is not in mourning....she is celebrating.
@Tabitha Jones Interesting perspective. Grief takes many forms. There is no "correct " way to grieve.
Having feelings doesn’t make someone not well-adjusted however
@@mhp4251 Sadness, mourning is universal....it is normal...her giddy performance was psychotic. I believe it was a ritual murder and that woman was involved.
What a beautiful woman and amazing mother.
I’m really inspired by this video I’ve lost nearly everyone in my family. Most recently I lost my 35-year-old sister to an overdose… Hearing other peoples journey on grief is helpful. Thank you for sharing. My twitch always rest in peace and keep his love forever flowing in Over you
I absolutely love the message she is sending to the public. It's genuine and very moving.
This is one that is still so hard to accept, acknowledge or comprehend. I loved watching the two of you dance together. Your videos made people happy.
I can't even imagine what your family has gone through. He is missed so much. He brought me so much joy. Both of you were so much fun to watch. I am so sorry for your loss. R.I.P Twitch.
I still can't believe he's gone😢
She is an incredible and amazing role model for how to be emotionally intelligent and able to hold the grief with love and awareness, allowing feelings and communication. This is what our world needs more of, living with love and joy. I hope that this makes a difference in the truly inspirational way we can learn from this tragedy.
she has no emotions are you blind? She is a textbook psychopath, and you don't see something wrong with her behavior you see emotional intelligence?? never trust your own judgement when it comes to people it is horrible! Doubt me? Go study traits of a female psychopath for 30 mins then watch that evil self serving video she posted watch her interviews then watch a real grieving widow like vanessa Bryant talk about Kobe it will help you out more than you know.
It’s sweet to see her positivity, I think it’s a coping mechanism. What he did was selfish no matter how much everyone wants to sugar coat it. His family never deserved this.
I get how it can appear that way but you also have to realize he wasnt in his right frame of mind to do what he did. I dont think for a second that he wanted to leave his family or leave them without a will. The internal pain must have been so hard for him. That is how I look at it.
Absolutely! It's more sad that he felt that he could not talk to his wife about his demons.
Maybe he wasn't selfish and didn't do this to himself. Allison's story and the police investigation that was closed too quickly are both full of holes.
@John Free I agree!
Based on your statement, it sounds like you’ve never been through mental health struggles because sometimes people do snap. I would just like to know from a professional perspective why some people don’t reach out. But whatever he was going consumed him. Suicidal thoughts are very powerful and can often take over any logic. I’ve experienced it.
I just want to hug her. He was the love of her life. Now she has to be strong for the family and that is a lot for one person. Wish her and her children the best. ❤❤❤❤
If Allison say that she choses grace, love, kindness, why didnt she investigated her husband death why did she close his case so quickly, thats not love grace and kindness,at all, thats disrespect to the one you love, and an insult to people,s intellegence. JUSTICE FOR TWITCH, out of the blues now she wearing the wedding ring, before now she hardly wore it but since she went to file for his estate she put it on in pretence, God is watching you girl come clean.
Still unbelievable. Sending prayers of much love and care for her, the children and all whose lives have been affected by Twitch. ❤
I have never cries for any other celebrity then I did when I heard of his death… right now I’m tearing up.
You, a fan, cried but Allison never did.
@@vegskater1741 how can you say that… omg
What a strong woman. I still can't believe he's gone
Allison, you are living love and strength, through your vulnerability and care for yourself and your family. I am inspired by your authenticity and commitment to being there for your children, and for yourself. Stephen must feel such peace and pride through you ❤️
She is so strong May God continue to strengthen her and comfort her and the kids❤
She has always been just the sweetest person ever.. I could listen to her talk all day.. So heartbroken for them all. 💛 🙏🏻
I have a hard time listening to her being fake. Ugh. She never shed a single tear for Twitch.
My heart goes out to Allison Holker and her children. I am inspired by her strength and grace. Her remembering the good and happy moments with Twitch. I am praying for this family. Rest In His Perfect Peace Twitch.
We love you and your family, Allison. Sending light and healing energy to you all.✨
Wow! What a beautiful woman! The best for her and the kids, my love and prayers 🙏 many blessings 💕
Not her saying when her husband died she was more concerned with what her new purpose was gonna be and not why he took his life??? What???
Smh
I watched Ellen for a long time, when Steven came on the show it made it brighter. He had a special thing that many don't have. He made you feel love happiness, just for entering the room. I obviously didn't know him personally, but you could feel it from the tv screen. He was just pure light. I have cried the ugly cry for few celebrities that have passed and Steven was one of them. He truly was a light that brighter this world. He will be missed so much. 😭😭😭RIP Steven Boss.
Allison you are the definition of strength. instead of hiding in your pain, you are showing what strength is. How you can still be standing. I know you missed him so much. Keep being strong for your kids & especially for yourself. Rise those kids to be good human beings just like their dad. Because we need more lights in this world to shine.
Mental illness is no joke. It can take you to very dark place and sometimes you can't climb back up from that dark hole. That's why I always say that this country needs more resources. Free health care. Because most of time people don't get help is because they can't afford health insurances. The mind so very delicate. Steven that was pure light happiness pure love, couldn't climb back. This world is doomed. I just hope our government does more and changes things so not another Steven is taken from us.
@Jenny C So beautifully stated 🥲
What a wonderful woman.
My heart goes out to the family. I'm so proud of Allison, she has such a great outlook on life for her and her family. It is a devastating loss for the world as well. He was such a great performer and entertainer. He had such a beautiful life and had so many friends. It's so sad that he didn't seek help.
Hats off to you mama for being strong this far.Stephen is with you in spirit and watching over you.may God bless you and your beautiful babies.take it minute by minute you are all going to be okay❤❤
Still so hard to believe…he had the best smile. ❤😔
I'm so sorry for your loss. We all feel your family pain and love. Prayers for to all 🙏🏾🙏🏾💖
Wow what a beautiful person. So strong, graceful, living and kind. And she is living her purpose. May her and her children have peace in their minds and hearts and live a happy life.
This is so beautiful. I'm going through grief in a few ways and hearing from people who have makes me emotional but it helps me too.❤
my prayers go out to her and her family. Her husband was an amazing man with such a beautiful smile. Its still hard to believe he is gone. Stay strong Allison ,your husband is with you feel him in your heart.
Wow. She really is able to speak so clearly and thoughtfully in this grief. Heartbreaking but she’s clearly so strong.
Beautiful message, so open, vulnerable, loving and inspiring!
Wow. I'm in awe of her strength and depth and grace. 🙏🌟💫
I'm so happy to see her talking about their lives. I hardly knew who Stephen Boss was, not having watched Ellen's show, but seeing their love shining in all of their dance vids, made me very sad and shocked about his death. Her grace is just astounding. She honors him, beautifully.
Such a strong beacon of light and amazing example of a beautiful heart and soul to have gone through one of the most devastating, life changing events that could possibly happen to a family! A true demonstration of inspiration to those who have lost a loved one unexpectedly!! WOW!! Love, continued strength, and prayers to you and your family, Allison!! ❤❤❤
Incredible wisdom and grace. Live in love ❤️ and be kind.
The friend that is always entertaining everyone is often the saddest. They try to make others happy because they aren't.
Today is the 4 Year Anniversary of my Dad’s passing, so I understand your pain truly and I look up to you and you are so strong. We are both Alison’s and we can get through this, you got this girl. You are an inspiration and I look up to you. Keep your head up high
Sorry for your loss. May your dad rest in Peace.
I absolutely love Alison she has been so strong through everything. My love goes out to her and the family and i hope they find comfort in knowing that they are loved.
One of the most meaningful talks I've ever heard. Allison, you give ME hope, and I genuinely thank you, for opening up MY eyes to start to see through the lenses of which you speak. I wish you so much love and comfort for you and your family, and never forget that Twitch has made so muxh of an impact on this world, more than anyone will ever even realize❤❤
Prayers for her and the family!🙏
You're so amazing and inspiring Allison. Truly remarkable.
His legacy of love, life, & kindness, so powerful from within… 💗💗💗
So beautiful said Allison. God bless you and your children! 🙏❤️
Anyone else think she looks
Soooo
So so different In this Interview
What a graceful Beautiful person. Keep going strong
Strong and graceful woman. I dont know that i could ever be as strong. There are so much that we can all learn from her. .
Heartbreaking experience. I hope Allison has lots of family support. Sending love and light 💫
Glad to see Allison doing okay I can’t even imagine how painful losing a spouse is I was an emotional wreck when my dog passed away losing a spouse who was the father to your children who you loved i honestly can’t even imagine going through that. I hope she & her children finds peace & happiness again in her life.
Yes, she's never been 'an emotional wreck' at all. She never shed a single tear for Twitch. It's suspect.
@@vegskater1741 Absolutely 💯 something isn't rite and I said this all along ..it doesn't make sense
Allison is so strong, gracious, a good mom.
Such a beautiful strong soul. Keep on keeping on. We love U!!! 🙏💜😘
Her voice is the best I have ever heard. I was struck by it right away. I wish her the best.
What an incredible person! Allison is so wise and beautiful inside and out.
Well, she seems to say the right things, even if she shows no real emotion about Twitch. What she says could have been written for her as well.
I can’t help but feel like this isn’t completely forthcoming. She spoke mostly about positive, happy emotions. That is good to try to have a positive outlook, but also you do need a space to express and work through feelings like anger and sadness which I imagine have to be there as well. Her kids need to be able to work through that when they have those hard emotions too. It feels like that was just glossed over. I also want to know how aware she was of his struggles.
Beautiful Alison! Courageous, Strong, full of love ❤️. God bless you and your beautiful family…God be with you all. I pray His love, grace and His peace be upon you all.
Such grace and love❤
Sending much love and prayers to you and your family ❤🙏🏻
🙏 Prayers and blessings to you and your family. ❤️
This video is going to help so many! Thank you Allison, for sharing your story and for your wise words ❤
She is such an amazing and inspiring woman. Blessings to you and your family!❤🙏🏾
I’d give anything to have a parent like her. My heart breaks for her. She is an amazing woman ❤❤
she is plainly evil careful what you wish for
@@tonyamartin1425 why? I must of missed something..
So sorry for your loss ❤
I’m thankful that she is spreading the message that no matter the highs or lows, you are still you. It’s ok to talk about the lows, no need to hide it.
Allison, thank you for sharing your life with us and continuing to shine your love and light into this beautiful but troublesome world. I’m so grateful to you for not giving up but discovering a way to carry on with your purpose.
Your words spoke to my heart. You’re an incredible inspiration. As someone who struggles with both depression and anxiety, your wisdom is invaluable. Speaking openly about mental health and normalizing the conversation for millions will change so many lives. Sharing strategies that you and your family apply to help your own mental health through the grieving process will benefit many other families and individuals battling depression.
Stephen’s passing was a shock and hit me hard. Your husband’s energy and love for all always made me smile. You and your family will remain in my loving thoughts and prayers ❤
Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤ PLEASE continue sharing your wisdom, love, and light in this world! God Bless
Heartbreaking yet Hopeful🌻🌻🌻
😢😢😢 may God give you strength. I miss him so much 😢
You & the children are❤️ Praying for Comfort always. TWitch was ❤️ Keeping you all lifted in 🙏✌️
This was such a sad story, god bless this family ❤. She is amazing, and such a good mom.
I will always remember that quote from her..."We feel so much pain because we feel so much love....."
I second this, how true and beautiful is that and I wrote it down hearing her say it because I so relate, well said. ❤
How much pain has she felt for Twitch? She hasn't shed a single tear for him.
she isn’t original in that sentiment 🙄
@@vegskater1741 no that judgement no one ever deserves as their grieving, she doesn't need to breakdown in public to prove her grief that's a horrible thing to say, she's nothing to prove to anyone. Try not to judge life is hard enough without others judging like that
As a mother, she has 3 children three mouths to feed, three human beings to nurture, and prepare for this world. She has no time to cry or get angry or wallow in self-pity or blame game. She has to get up when her mind says fuck it. She has to go through the motions of being a mother when all she wants to do is just veg away. No, she can't because she has three beautiful human beings that she must have the strength and willpower to guide and be there for. When no one is home, at 2:00am in the morning, she brakes like a branch into her own tears but knows one hears or knows just like a tree that falls to the forest floor.
I wish her strength and peace of mind. I hope that she can be busy so she can grow. But I hope she will take the time to also seek guidance because I look at her eyes and no when all the friends and love one and everyone goes back to the regular lives. She will have to really deal with the real reality of this.
I still can't believe this is true. You just never what someone is dealing with so always be kind. Be there for people. Tell people you love them everyday.
Our heart is with you, She has so many beautiful memories. Smile and celebrate his life. Steven seemed like an amazing person. ❤🤗🙏🙏🙏.
Alison, you are a beautiful soul, so sorry for your loss. Keep shining Twitch is dancing with you !
I could never be that composed in my grief
She is still in shock. It can take years to accept it , if one ever does
@@why6795 looks like insincerity not shock
Yes, because she probably doesn't have any. I think something else happened to Twitch.
@@vegskater1741 she looks detached af
This is horrible 😢
