Alison Holker and Stephen 'TWitch' Boss NDA drama explained

Steven “TWitch” bossThe 2022 funeral reportedly caused tension in the family over the use of non-disclosure agreements.

Two years after Boss died by suicide at the age of 40, several of his relatives and friends claimed that the widow Alison Holker allegedly forced them to sign NDA documents in order to attend the service.

“All of us had to sign some weird NDA attend his funeral—even his own mother, who you treated like trash all along. So you think you can dance alum Courtney Plattwho competed alongside Boss in Season 4 before both returned as Stars in Season 7 alongside Holker. Instagram earlier this week. “Let's just remember that you wouldn't even have had a husband if it hadn't been for him.”

Holker's daughter Wesley, 16, responded to Platt's claims by claiming that there was more to the story and explaining why NDAs were requested in the first place.

“Y'all love to argue about NDAs,” Wesley said in a Friday, Jan. 10, Instagram video. “But within a day we had an open casket for Stephen. We had a funeral and then we had a week and my mom asked me to sign an NDA when we saw Steven's body because god forbid someone who went there took a picture of Steven and put it on the internet or shared it. someone else. This is exactly the kind of thing NDAs are for. It's not like you can never talk about Steven.

Wesley also praised Holker, 36, for deciding to ask family and friends to sign NDAs before the service.

“NDAs are so important and if you don't agree with it, that's great,” she added. “I'm grateful that my mom made sure everyone signed an NDA, and she made that rule.”

According to Wesley, her mom was ultimately “lenient” on the NDA request, which may have allowed Boss's loved ones to attend a funeral.

“At the end of the day, she understands that this is family,” Wesley said. “So you want to disrespect her (while) she's still nice, she's still kind, she's still forgiving, but you have to know, like, even when Steven was alive, people who attended our events, they had to sign NDAs. But now, just because my mom is handing the paper, it's different.

She added: “The whole day should have been beautiful and instead it was less so. We wanted to say goodbye and instead people shouted at each other and freak my mom out and like this is the day she's taken away. She can't remember it as the day we all wanted to be in because it was different for her family.

Boss is survived by his parents, siblings, Holker and their children. In addition to Wesley, the two dancers had 8-year-old Maddox and 5-year-old Zaya. (Wesley is Holker's daughter from a previous relationship, with Boss claiming Friday that she was never legally adopted, even though he “literally raised her” since she was a baby.)

Holker wrote to her recently This far away a memoir about her life and marriage to Boss that sparked online criticism of her in public revealed Bosa's addiction struggles and wrote out his personal diary entries. Bosa's family members and other friends condemned Holker for allegedly trying to profit from his death, but she denied the allegations and explained that she just wanted to shed more light on the spotlight on the prevalence and dangers of substance use and mental health issues.

Wesley also slammed accusations that her mum is “money hungry” or looking for “more fame”.

“That's not my mom. Trust me when I say my mom is good — she doesn't need (the money),'' Wesley said. “It's just disappointing. … My mom has put in the effort (with her family). She's tried as long as she could but this is the kind of turning point where it's, it stops, it's on, like trying to maintain a relationship, now it's like you're all burning bridges and literally everything is okay
