Allison Holker will forever hold her late husband, Stephen “tWitch” Boss, in her heart. His legacy in the dance world is monumental.

She met her husband there, and together, they became significant figures in the dance world. Her return to the show is a full-circle moment.
Chmerkovskiy, a former *Dancing With the Stars* champion, noticed Holker’s dedication to honoring Boss’ legacy during filming.
“I missed tWitch. I wish we had crossed paths professionally,” Chmerkovskiy reflected. But he admires how Holker is filling the void.
