Here's how Alison Holker drew criticism and what she had to say about 'TWitch' boss Stephen's alleged drug addiction
Earlier this week, PEOPLE magazine unveiled its latest cover story featuring Boss's widow, Holker. The outlet then shared a common position with Holker via Instagram.
In addition, the main tagline on the cover reads: “He hid so much”.
In addition, PEOPLE released an 18-minute video interview with Holker via YouTube. During the hearing, Holker claimed that Boss suffered from drug addiction before his death in December 2022. In addition, Holker claimed that she learned of her late husband's possible condition while preparing for his funeral.
“I was with one of my really dear friends and we were cleaning out his closet and picking out an outfit for his funeral,” she said. “It was a really upsetting moment for me because I found a lot of things in our closet that I didn't know existed. It was very upsetting for me to find out that there was so much going on that I had no idea (about).
Ultimately, Holker claimed she found a “cornucopia” of drugs in her late husband's belongings, which allegedly included mushrooms, pills and “other substances” she “had to look for”.
According to Sixth pagein an interview with PEOPLE, Holker acknowledged Bose's alleged addiction to marijuana and also hinted that she was sexually abused by a male figure as a child.

Family of 'TWitch' boss Stephen reacts alongside Candace Dillard
Then reality star Candice Dillard took it on Xformerly known as Twitter to share her disdain for Holker's claims about her late husband.
“I won't even say it. But this white woman is doing everything BUT protecting her black children and her black husband's legacy. She could have kept this in her therapist's office. SMH,” Dillard wrote.
In addition, a woman named Elle, one of the Witch's cousins, took it upon herself X react to Holker's revelations. Elle claimed that Ragana had no drug addiction and was “trying to quit” smoking marijuana before his death. Additionally, Elle accused Holker of making tWitch's family sign an NDA to attend his funeral.
“She has tried to ruin his legacy and refuses to let the Boss family see the kids. Just to use and LIE about her cousin. Hell no,” she added.
Per Sixth pageCourtney Ann Platt, a former girlfriend of tWitch's, shared a lengthy message via Instagramblasting Holker's actions. Additionally, Platt's words were reportedly reposted by the Boss brothers via Instagram.
“This is by far the most tacky, classless and opportunistic act I have ever seen in my life. We all had to sign some weird NDA to attend his funeral (even his own mother who you treated like garbage the whole time and let's remember you wouldn't even have had a husband if it wasn't for her) to not attend. share something or spoil his name as if it occurred to someone and here you write a book with all the dirty laundry that smears his name and tries to darken the bright loyal, loving, easy, that was your husband, mine a friend. Whether any of it is true or not is really beside the point,” Platt wrote in part. “This is how you protect the 'Boss' name' that you so quickly posted on your social media platforms 48 hours after he left? His legacy? This is how you protect his children from further humiliation, hurt and despair? This is what you want them to remember about him? You've moved on, you're living your life, you're on every carpet you can step on, every celebrity row you can sit in, every magazine you can be in, and you had to? Get a journal, a therapist, a friend… but publish a book shamelessly sharing pages of your husband's journal? People magazine? What a joke…”
