On January 30, photographs and a video of Stephen ’tWitch’ Boss taken before his tragic suicide have been made available to the public. Now his mom and his wife are revealing how they felt when they saw the new campaign.

As reports have confirmed, the photographs were taken as part of a new GAP campaign tWitch was a part of. You can watch behind-the-scenes footage from the shoot below:
“In loving memory of our friend, Stephen “tWitch” Boss,” GAP wrote alongside the video. “We were fortunate to have Stephen on set with us, where he told us, ‘We have to take these little moments of light and these little moments of joy and stretch them out as much as possible.’”
GAP continued revealing, “In honor of Stephen, Gap is supporting the 988 Lifeline by donating to Vibrant Emotional Health. Vibrant administers the 988 Lifeline, which provides free and confidential emotional support and counseling to people in crisis or emotional distress 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, across the United States.”
Now, Allison Boss and Connie Boss Alexander are speaking out. After GAP released the footage, Connie took to her Instagram Story, saying, “I almost called you to say son look at you in this ad! Then I remembered ????. My heart…”
While Allison also issued a statement, writing how she was first able to see the images with her husband when he was still alive.

“When Stephen and I first saw his images from the campaign, it brought tears to our eyes. He was so moved by how they captured his true essence, and he was excited for the world to see them. We pay tribute to Stephen’s life by sharing these images in homage to the joy and light he brought to everyone around him.”
Truly heartbreaking.
As Mamas Uncut previously reported, while talking with Entertainment Tonight, the source said Boss’s wife, Allison Holder Boss, “has been receiving so much support and outpouring of love since tWitch’s passing. Her family, his family, and her DWTS family have been there for her in any way they can be.”
“Everyone has really come together to congregate around her and her kids, especially during the holiday season.” Allison and tWitch share three children, 14-year-old Weslie, 6-year-old Maddox, and 3-year-old Zaia.
They were married for nine years before tWitch’s unexpected passing at the age of 40 on December 13. As Mamas Uncut previously reported, his cause of death has been ruled a suicide after he was discovered in a California hotel bathroom with a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head.
The source revealed that Allison has managed to keep herself together for her children, despite all of the emotions she is dealing with herself. “It has been a very difficult time, but Allison has always been a strong person,” the source told ET of Allison.
“She is trying to keep her composure and not break down in front of her kids through this process for their sake. She is prioritizing their mental well-being, especially her eldest daughter since she has an idea of what’s going on and the younger children don’t fully understand.”
The source continued to say, “Allison is making sure that all the kids know how much their daddy loves them, that he is still with them and his spirit is still flourishing, that this has nothing to do with them and that they can do things to help keep his spirit alive.”
Boss has since been laid to rest following a private ceremony.
