Stephen “tWitch” Boss died by suicide on December 13, 2022, according to TMZ. Boss was found inside a motel room near his home in Encino, California, with a self-inflicted gunshot wound. He is survived by his wife, former “Dancing With the Stars” pro Allison Holker, and three young children.
More than a month after his death, Gap clothing brand released photos from a campaign that Boss had done with the company. Upon seeing the photos, his mom, Connie Boss Alexander, admitted that her first instinct was to pick up the phone and call her son.
“I almost called you to say son look at you in this ad! Then I remembered,” Alexander wrote on her Instagram Stories on January 31, 2023, according to Page Six. She included a broken heart emoji to her post. “My heart,” she added.
