Allison Holker has found love again.
The 36-year-old shared a glimpse into her new relationship on social media, a year and a half after her husband, Stephen “tWitch” Boss, died by suicide.
Holker posted a picture on Instagram Wednesday of two shadows that appeared to be herself holding hands with the mystery man.
She captioned the snap with a red heart emoji.
Fans flocked to the comments section to show their support for the “So You Think You Can Dance” judge.
“It’s been a long time coming. Proud of you for taking the leap,” one person shared, while another chimed in: “Life is to be lived, and loved. You’re teaching your children that it’s okay to live. I wish you every happiness.”
Rounding out the sweet messages, one user wrote, “Love has a way of renewing itself, even after the deepest of losses. Finding the courage to open your heart again after such a journey speaks to the resilience of your spirit and the beauty of the love you shared.”
They concluded, “May this new chapter bring you the joy, companionship, and peace you so deeply deserve, honoring the love you’ll always hold in your heart while embracing the possibilities of tomorrow.”
Boss died at age 40 in 2022, and the couple shared three children: daughters Weslie, 16, and Zaia, 4, and son Maddox, 8.
In June, Holker, who tied the knot with Boss in 2013, took a moment to reflect on how her kids handled their father’s death, noting to People that they did so with “so much grace and so much kindness.”
“We always had a really close bond as a family,” the reality star continued. “But there’s a new level of it now. There’s a new level of respect and patience and understanding. And the conversations I’m able to embrace and have with my children is like nothing I’ve ever seen from other families.”
Holker added, “It came from something so sad and painful, but it’s only brought us together.”
Despite the tragedy, she remained hopeful that she could find her other half again.
“I think I am a person that I always say the quote, ‘Romanticize your life.’ And I think, though I’ve gone through so much, I’m still a believer in living a big life,” Holker told the outlet. “There’s not been one moment that I haven’t thought to myself, ‘I still want to live a big life.’”
The mom-of-three said she “still would want to have love, would still want to travel the world. I still want to see and experience new things with new people, new energy, my friends, my family, a loved one — a potential — and my kids.”
Most importantly, Holker wanted to be an example to her children.
“I want them to see that they can still learn to trust and love again,” she confessed. “It doesn’t have to go away.”
And when it comes to dating? As Holker put it, “I would embrace it.”
