Allison Holker has announced her engagement, marking a new chapter three years after the death of her husband, Stephen “tWitch” Boss.
The professional dancer shared the news on Instagram on Thursday, revealing that her partner, Adam Edmunds, proposed to her during a deeply personal celebration surrounded by family and friends.
“We’re ENGAGED! It was the most romantic night of my life!” Holker, 38, wrote along with photos of the proposal, which came with a beautiful red flower arrangement.
She added: “I’m so in love with you Adam,” making it clear that the moment had great emotional significance for her.
The announcement comes three years after the death of Holker’s husband, Stephen ‘tWitch’ Boss, who committed suicide in December 2022 at the age of 40.
Holker and Boss were married from 2013 until his death and share three children: Weslie, 17, Maddox, 9, and Zaia, 6.
In her post, Holker spoke at length about the impact Edmunds has had on her life and family.
“Honey, I will be forever grateful for you and the impact you have had on my life and the lives of my children. I am a better person because of you. You helped me find myself again and showed me how to love. Every morning I wake up I feel safe knowing that you are my person by my side,” she wrote.
She also described the union of their families as “the biggest blessing,” noting that Edmunds has three children from a previous relationship.
Holker shared that the proposal took place during what she believed was a surprise 38th birthday party, which later turned into something even more meaningful.
“The whole night was magical and you thought of every detail to make it even more special,” she said, thanking Edmunds for bringing together the people they love to celebrate the moment.
The evening also included a live performance of their song, I guess I’m in loveby Clinton Kane himself.
The dancer concluded her message with a promise to her fiancé, writing, “Adam, I will always support you, hold you and love you. You are my everything, Adam.”
Holker and Adam Edmunds made their first public appearance as a couple at New York Fashion Week in September 2024, about a year and a half after Boss’ death.
Since then, she has spoken openly about both her grief and her healing, including the challenges she faced following criticism over a memoir in which she discussed her late husband’s struggles.
Holker later said that her intention was to help others recognize warning signs that she felt she had overlooked.
In December, she marked the third anniversary of Boss’ death with a tribute on Instagram, honoring his memory and thanking fans for their continued support.
“We honor you and treasure all of our beautiful memories with you. We loved laughing, creating and dancing. We will love you forever,” she wrote at the time.
