LOS ANGELES, USA – Five months after the tragic death of renowned dancer Stephen Boss, popularly known as tWitch, an autopsy report has shed new light on the circumstances surrounding his untimely passing.
The report, obtained by Entertainment Tonight (ET), revealed that there were no drugs or alcohol in Boss’s system at the time of his death, and the cause was ruled as suicide due to a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head.
On December 13, 2022, the popular entertainer was found dead in a motel room in a case that the Los Angeles Police Department described as an “Ambulance Death Investigation.”
The investigation revealed no signs of foul play, and the case was subsequently handed over to the Los Angeles County Coroner’s office.
Boss, the former DJ and executive producer for The Ellen DeGeneres Show, left behind a note stating he could no longer go on.
He is survived by his wife, Allison Holker Boss, and their three children: Weslie, 14, Maddox, 7, and Zaia, 3.
In February, Holker publicly addressed her husband’s passing for the first time, expressing gratitude for the support she and her family had received.
“You guys have brought so much hope and inspiration to us by sharing stories and memories and moments in different ways Stephen impacted your life, and it’s brought us so much hope and inspiration,” she shared in a heartfelt video.
Two months later, in April, Holker was granted half of Boss’s artistic earnings and “property passing” rights by the Superior Court of California in Los Angeles County.
The court documents confirmed her status as Boss’s surviving spouse and that “no administration of it is necessary.”
Holker, who now holds half the interest in Stephen Boss Productions, Inc., has openly shared her grieving process.
In an emotional interview with Today‘s Hoda Kotb, Holker revealed the profound shock of her husband’s passing.
“No one’s ready for that moment and there’s no one that saw this coming. No one — and that breaks my heart too,” she confessed. “All I can do is just try to move forward.”
Holker said she speaks to Boss every night to cope, channeling her grief into memories of their shared love.
“I’m feeling this much pain because I’ve had so much love,” she reflected. As for their children, she explained, “Daddy’s in the stars. So we can go outside and talk to him whenever we want.”
With these disclosures, the tragic circumstances of Stephen “tWitch” Boss’s untimely passing have become clearer, revealing a painful chapter in the life of one of the entertainment industry’s most beloved figures.
