The drama between Stephen "tWitch" Boss' mom and Allison Holker is messier than anyone realized! According to Dailymail.com on Wednesday, Connie Boss Alexander sued the 38-year-old ballroom dancer last year, claiming she had been "cut off" from her three grandchildren, Maddox, 9, Zaia, 6, and Weslie, 17, whom tWitch adopted. She claimed she was fearful her relationship with her grandkids would "deteriorate," leaving a "permanently disrupted" family bond. Perezcious readers know there has been bad blood between Allison and Stephen's family ever since she released a memoir, This Far: My Story of Love, Loss and Embracing the Light, where she exposed a lot of jaw-dropping secrets about her late husband, including that she discovered a "cornucopia of drugs" in his belongings after he died by suicide in 2022. Connie and her loved ones felt the Dancing With The Stars alum not only blindsided them by dropping a book but also accused her of "cherry-picking" what to reveal about Stephen.

Dailymail.com reported that in September 2025, she filed a Petition for Grandparent Visitation against the reality star. She claimed the relationship with her grandchildren ended following tWitch's death - a "unilateral and retaliatory decision" made by Allison. And Connie is not the only one cut off! Stephen's other family members haven't been able to see or talk to the kids, either! She wrote in the filing: "Unfortunately, shortly following my son's passing, [Allison] refused to allow me or any other members of our family to communicate with or see the Minor Children. My hope is that this Court can grant me limited grandparent visitation in a way that neither infringes on [Allison's] autonomy or disrupts their life. I believe it in the best interests of the Children to continue to have a relationship with their father's family, especially now that he is no longer present in their lives." Connie explained that tWitch was the "primary point of contact" connecting her with Weslie, Maddox, and Zaia while she lived in Arizona and the kids lived in California at the time. However, she alleged that "after Stephen passed, things changed," and she no longer had frequent contact with the kids, including via phone calls, FaceTime, text, or social media, which used to take place "multiple times per week." Connie insisted she tried to remain in touch, but Allison distanced herself once the family started to call her out for tarnishing The Ellen DeGeneres Show alum's legacy: "I did my best during that first year to stay in touch and maintain some consistency, especially for the sake of the Children. But it became difficult as Respondent (Allison) began distancing herself, often expressing frustration over public comments she believed our family should have addressed. At times, contact would be cut off altogether and only resumed after I reached out repeatedly. Over time, our communication became increasingly infrequent, and at this point, we're no longer in contact despite my numerous attempts." Oof... In Allison's defense, we don't know about the two younger kids, but Weslie made it clear she did not want a relationship with Stephen's family because she felt "disrespected by them" amid the book controversy. The teen previously explained on social media: "They've gone on social media saying that 'Blood's thicker than water,' and that's a direct [hit to] me and my mom. And if you don't see me as Stephen's daughter, that's cool, take it how you want. I know for a fact that's never how he saw it, and it's literally just hurtful. ... I've slowly started to remove myself from [them] because they don't make me feel comfortable, and my mom's the one making the effort and feeling like it's a need and a necessity to see them because she cares." So, if Connie hasn't heard from Weslie, it's probably because she wants nothing to do with her or anyone else from Stephen's side anymore. It's sad, but can you blame her? They were publicly trash-talking her mom, and the comment "Blood's thicker than water" obviously hurt her. Since Connie sued Allison, they reportedly have gone back and forth through their lawyers for months over the situation. The former Disney's Fairy Tale Weddings host fired back at her mother-in-law, accusing her of lying. Allison alleged she "facilitated phone calls, FaceTime calls and visits with [Connie] and the children" and even "invited [Connie] to see the children." However, she claimed Connie "declined the invitation." Connie, for her part, addressed the accusation in a filing on January 26, 2026, saying she was only invited to see the kids on two occasions last year - once in February to read Stephen's journals and another time after Allison's lawyers informed her of the lawsuit. The backup dancer argued that she asked Connie on "numerous occasions," including on G
