Mary Murphy said it was a "fairy tale" for everyone on "So You Think You Can Dance" that Stephen 'tWitch' Boss' and Allison Holker got married, and that she sends nothing but love and prayers to her and her kids.
Stephen "tWitch" Boss's wife, Allison Holker, broke her silence on social media following the death of her husband last week.

"My ONE and ONLY Oh how my heart aches. We miss you so much," she wrote.
His mother, Connie Boss Alexander, posted a photo from a FaceTime phone call and wrote, "Oh if only I could FT to heaven…"
