Allison was labeled “classless” and “opportunistic” by members of her late husband’s innermost circle after her controversial interview went viral.BuzzFeed StaffThis article mentions suicide, drug addiction, and sexual abuse.Boss, who was an accomplished dancer and beloved fixture on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, died by suicide in December 2022. He and Holker were married for nine years, and they shared three kids during this time: Weslie (Holker’s daughter from a previous relationship, but who was adopted by Boss), Maddox, and Zaia.“He was trying to self-medicate and cope with all those feelings because he didn’t want to put it on anyone because he loved everyone so much. He didn’t want other people to take on his pain,” claimed Holker, who is set to release a memoir next month.“Just like you, I never really knew what happened, and even as I am trying to put the pieces together I will never really know,” she wrote.“If you decide to read the book, hopefully you’ll see my intention is to celebrate the love and life I shared with Stephen and our three beautiful children, and also the more complex aspects of both of our lives,” she said. “I hope that by sharing our full story maybe I can help someone else who might see themselves or a loved one in Stephen. In sharing I hope maybe they catch some [of] the red flags that I missed before it’s too late.”Dial 988 in the US to reach the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline.
