Alongside the hip hop dancer’s mother, tWitch leaves behind his wife, Allison Holker, and their three children, Zaia, 3, Maddox, 6, and Weslie, 14. Confirming the shocking loss last week, Allison told People:

“It is with the heaviest of hearts that I have to share my husband Stephen has left us. Stephen lit up every room he stepped into. He valued family, friends and community above all else and leading with love and light was everything to him. He was the backbone of our family, the best husband and father, and an inspiration to his fans.”

Several other celebrities have also opened up about the loss of the iconic dancer, including Derek Hough, JoJo Siwa, Ellen DeGeneres, Jodie Sweetin, Channing Tatum, Mario Lopez, and many, many more. We are sending so much love to all tWitch’s loved ones as they mourn his loss, especially during the holidays which can make grief all the more difficult to navigate.
