Allison Holker’s Daughter Claims tWitch’s Family Ruined Funeral Over NDAs

11 January 2025 at 10:14

Stephen “tWitch” Boss’ 2022 funeral reportedly sparked family tensions over the use of nondisclosure agreements.

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

“We all had to sign some weird NDA to attend his funeral — even his own mother who you’ve treated like garbage this entire time,” So You Think You Can Dance alum Courtney Platt, who competed alongside Boss on season 4 before they both returned as All-Stars in season 7 alongside Holker, alleged via Instagram earlier this week. “Let’s just remember you wouldn’t have even had a husband if it wasn’t for her.”

Holker’s daughter Weslie, 16, responded to Platt’s claims, asserting that there was more to the story and explaining why the NDAs were requested in the first place.

“Y’all love to argue about the NDAs,” Weslie said in a Friday, January 10, Instagram video. “But in one day, we had an open casket viewing for Stephen. We had a funeral, and then we had a week, and my mom asked for NDAs to be signed when we were seeing Stephen’s body because God forbid somebody that went to that took a photo of Stephen and put it on the internet or shared it with somebody else. That’s the type of thing that NDAs are for. It’s not so you can never talk about Stephen.”

Weslie further praised Holker, 36, for deciding to ask family members and friends to sign NDAs prior to the service.

“NDAs are so important, and if you guys don’t agree, that’s cool,” she added. “I’m grateful for my mom making sure that everybody signed NDAs, and she put up that rule.”

According to Weslie, her mom was ultimately “lenient” with the NDA request that allegedly allowed Boss’ loved ones to attend the funeral.

“She understands at the end of the day, like, this is family,” Weslie said. “So y’all 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 Stephen was alive people that attended our events, they would have to sign NDAs. But now, just because it’s my mom handing the paper, it’s different.”

She added, “That whole day was supposed to be beautiful, and instead, it was less than that. We were gonna say our goodbyes, and instead, people were yelling at each other and bashing my mom and, like, that’s a day that’s taken away from her. She can’t remember it as being the day that we all wanted to be because his family was making it otherwise.”

Boss is survived by his parents, siblings, Holker and their children. In addition to Weslie, the two dancers shared Maddox, 8, and Zaia, 5. (Weslie is Holker’s daughter from a previous relationship, claiming on Friday that Boss never legally adopted her despite “literally raising” her since she was a toddler.)

Holker recently wrote her This Far memoir about her life and marriage to Boss, which prompted online criticism that she publicly disclosed Boss’ addiction struggles and excerpted his personal diary entries. Members of Boss’ family and other friends condemned Holker for allegedly trying to profit off his death, but she denied the claims and explained that she only wanted to further shine a spotlight on the prevalence and danger of substance abuse and mental health issues.

Weslie also denounced the accusations that her mom is “money hungry” or seeking “more fame.”

“That’s not how my mom is. Trust me when I say my mom is good —  she doesn’t need [money],” Weslie stated. “It’s just disappointing. … My mom’s made her efforts [with his family]. She’s tried for as long as she could, but this is the kind of turning point where it’s like, this stops like, it’s beyond, just like, trying to maintain a relationship now it’s like y’all burn bridges and literally it’s OK.”

Socialite Candice Miller Rebuilding Her Life After Husband's Death: Report

11 January 2025 at 09:46

Candice Miller is reportedly finding a way to move forward with her life six months after her husband Brandon Miller’s untimely death.

The former mommy blogger is said to be attending parties, various events and dinners after resettling in Miami Beach, Florida, according to a Page Six report published on Saturday, January 11. Two friends claiming to be close to Candice, 42, told the outlet that she has been seen attending workout classes and does not reportedly give the appearance that anything is wrong or awry, according to the same report.

Candice’s husband, Brandon, unexpectedly died in July 2024. His death was later ruled a suicide. Candice and Brandon got married in 2009 and later welcomed two daughters.

“Candice is devastated by the loss of her soul mate, and her two young daughters’ lives are forever impacted by the loss of their beloved daddy,” a spokesperson for the family said in a statement to the New York Times shortly after Brandon’s death.

Candice Miller Reportedly Auctioning Off Belongings After Husband's Death

Candice and Brandon were best known for showcasing their seemingly extravagant lifestyle online via the mother of two’s now-defunct “Mama & Tata” blog and Instagram account. In the former posts, Candice would highlight the family’s various trips on multi-million dollar yachts, private jets, and more.

But in the wake of Brandon’s death, court papers obtained by The New York Times in December 2024 revealed that the late real estate mogul was $33.6 million in debt at the time of his passing. According to Candice, her husband died without a will, leaving her in massive debt and, according to the social media star, only $8,000 in her bank account.

As Us Weekly previously reported, Candice “initially deactivated her social media following” following Brandon’s death, and in court papers obtained by The New York Times, claimed she owed $20 million in unsecured loans from various banks.

That same year, Candice was also sued for $195,000 in unpaid rent on the couple’s Manhattan condo. Documents obtained by Us at the time claimed that the influencer had failed to pay, while lawyers for Candice argued she was not responsible for the payments because her name was not on the apartment’s lease.

Earlier this year, Candice reportedly started auctioning off her husband’s belongings, according to a Page Six report published on January 3. According to the outlet, multiple items were listed on the website Auction Ninja, which featured “an exclusive curated online auction” sale at the Mecox Bay Water Mill Estate.

“The auction features a carefully selected collection of fine art, furniture, decor, and bespoke pieces that were part of the home’s decor, providing an exclusive chance to own a piece of this stunning, meticulously crafted living space,” an online description of the auction items reads. “For collectors and design enthusiasts, this is an unmissable opportunity to acquire rare, beautifully curated items with the unique touch of a celebrated designer.”

According to the Saturday report from Page Six, Candice is not shopping regularly but instead living a relatively quiet life when compared to her former, luxurious online persona. She was reportedly out on Halloween with her children, and while her life has exponentially changed she has also reportedly not changed — just living a low-key, quiet life.

The report also describes Miami as the perfect place for Candice to start over, in part because it is filled with people who will accept the former social media influencer.
