Allison Holker shared a glimpse at a new relationship, nearly two years after her husband, Stephen “tWitch” Boss died by suicide.
The “So You Think You Can Dance” alum, 36, on Wednesday shared an image on Instagram of herself and her new boyfriend’s shadows holding hands and captioned it with a heart emoji.
The announcement of sorts, known colloquially as a soft launch, comes ahead of the two-year anniversary of Boss’ death.
The dancer and “Ellen DeGeneres Show” DJ-turned-executive producer died in December 2022. He was 40.
On the heels of his death, Holker — who wed Boss in 2013 after meeting on “SYTCD” — said her “heart aches.”
“We miss you so much,” she said on behalf of herself and the couple’s three children: daughters Weslie, now 16, and Zaia, 4, and son Maddox, 8. Weslie was Holker’s daughter from a prior relationship, whom Boss adopted.
Holker in January of this year opened up on “The Viall Files” podcast about the “very complex” experience of dating while grieving.
She noted at the time that she’d had “a very hard” time trying “to learn to like myself again and to learn to love myself again” in the aftermath of Boss’ death.
“And then also, could I like someone else again? Could I love someone else again while I still like someone and love someone else?” she said of the “very complex situation I’ve found myself in.”

Holker ultimately realized she was open to love again.
“Would I shy away from it? No. Am I looking for it? I don’t know,” she admitted. “I still find that the world is such a beautiful place, and there’s so much to be experienced.”
Though she “had to work through all these different processes of all these different things,” Holker said “life and love is just something I’ve always believed in,” and she would “see what happens.”
