Stephen “tWitch” Boss‘ cause of death has been revealed after he died unexpectedly on Tuesday, December 13.
According to the Los Angeles County Medical Examiner, he died by suicide via a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head. There were “no signs of foul play” and the case is officially closed, Us Weekly confirms.
The Ellen DeGeneres Show DJ was 40. He and wife Allison Holker shared three children — daughter Weslie, 14, (who Holker welcomed with a previous partner and Boss later adopted), son Maddox, 6, and daughter Zaia, 3.
TMZ reported on Wednesday, December 14, that Holker informed officials at the Los Angeles Police Department one day prior that Boss had left their home without his car, which was unusual behavior. Police later received a call for a shooting at a hotel in L.A., where Boss was found dead of a reported suicide.
Holker, 34, later confirmed her husband’s death in a statement to NBC News.
“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,” Holker said on Tuesday. “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.”
She added: “To say he left a legacy would be an understatement, and his positive impact will continue to be felt. I am certain there won’t be a day that goes by that we won’t honor his memory. We ask for privacy during this difficult time for myself and especially for our three children.”
Holker concluded with a message to her late spouse: “Stephen, we love you, we miss you, and I will always save the last dance for you.”
