Just before Valentine's Day, Allison Holker, widow of the late Stephen 'tWitch' Boss, announced that she was engaged to her boyfriend Adam Edmunds.

But what should be a blissful era for anyone else has seemingly been overshadowed by yet another family feud behind the scenes three years after her husband's death.

Boss, best known for being Ellen DeGeneres' sidekick on her TV show, was found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot wound in a Los Angeles motel at the age of 40 in December 2022.

Since then, Holker, 38, has attempted to pick up the pieces and care for their children Maddox, nine, and Zaia, six, as well as her daughter Weslie, 17, whom tWitch had adopted and helped raise.

Two months after tWitch's passing, Holker released a memoir, This Far: My Story of Love, Loss and Embracing the Light. Members of the Boss family, however, said they were blindsided by some of the claims she made about the late performer, and they alleged they were forced to sign an NDA prior to his funeral.

Now, the Daily Mail can exclusively reveal more accusations Holker faces, as unveiled in a scathing lawsuit filed by tWitch's mother, Connie Boss Alexander.

She sought the court's intervention after she became fearful that her relationship with her grandkids would 'deteriorate' and that she'd be faced with a 'permanently disrupted' family bond.

In September 2025, Connie filed a Petition for Grandparent Visitation against Allison, alleging her relationship with her grandkids has changed following her son's death - describing it as a 'unilateral and retaliatory decision' by the dancer.

'Unfortunately, shortly following my son's passing, [Allison] refused to allow me or any other members of our family to communicate with or see the Minor Children.

'My hope is that this Court can grant me limited grandparent visitation in a way that neither infringes on [Allison's] autonomy or disrupts their life. I believe it in the best interests of the Children to continue to have a relationship with their father's family, especially now that he is no longer present in their lives,' she stated in the filing.

The 62-year-old went on to explain that tWitch was the 'primary point of contact' connecting her with her grandkids since she lives in Arizona and the kids lived in California at the time.

'After Stephen passed, things changed,' she alleged, noting that she no longer had frequent correspondence with the kids - including phone calls, FaceTime, text or social media messaging she says took place 'multiple times per week.'

She continued: 'I did my best during that first year to stay in touch and maintain some consistency, especially for the sake of the Children. But it became difficult as Respondent (Allison) began distancing herself, often expressing frustration over public comments she believed our family should have addressed.

'At times, contact would be cut off altogether and only resumed after I reached out repeatedly. Over time, our communication became increasingly infrequent, and at this point, we’re no longer in contact despite my numerous attempts.'

The comments the family have made about Allison seemingly refers to Connie accusing her of tarnishing tWitch's legacy with debt and drug claims in her memoir.
