LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: American dancer Allison Holker paid a heartfelt tribute to her late husband, Stephen “tWitch” Boss,  on Friday, January 6, a day after his funeral. The 34-year-old took to Instagram and shared a video with the caption, “To my husband, best friend, babe, Chee-chalker, Superman, and father of my children I LOVE YOU FOREVER and ALWAYS!” The video was posted just one day after the funeral of the producer of 'The Ellen DeGeneres Show'.

The emotional post started with a black and white portrait of her husband along with photos of the couple over the years. Some of the snaps included images of their kids, Weslie, 14, Maddox, 6, and  Zaia, 3. The sound of Rihanna's song, "Lift Me Up", which played in the background, made the post even more sentimental. 



 

Soon after the post, the comments section was flooded with messages of condolence. “He left his legacy in and with all of you, Allison Love you,” Dancing with The Stars alum Julianne Hough, 34, wrote. Other celebrities also commented on the post. Singer Jessie J, 34, added, "I’m so sorry. I can’t even imagine how you feel.” Comedian Anjelah Johnson also sent a loving message. “Holding you and your family tight in our hearts. May God continue to bring your strength and hope. Sending you so much love,” the 40-year-old noted.



 

Apart from the celebs, Holker's followers also paid their respect to the freestyle hip-hop dancer. “Sending you and the family all of my love Allison RIP Icon,” one supporter wrote, while another added, “I’m so sorry. Such a beautiful light in this world.”

Holker confirmed her husband's death in an exclusive statement to PEOPLE on December 14. “It is with the heaviest of hearts that I have to share my husband Stephen has left us,” she said. “I am certain there won’t be a day that goes by that we won’t honor his memory. We ask for privacy during this difficult time for myself and especially for our three children.” It was later revealed that Boss died by suicide and there was no foul play involved in his death.
