Engagement Announcement and Proposal Details
Allison Holker, the former "So You Think You Can Dance" star, announced her engagement to tech executive Adam Edmunds on February 12, 2026, via Instagram. Holker described the proposal as "the most romantic night of my life," which took place during a surprise birthday celebration for her 38th birthday on February 6, 2026. Edmunds orchestrated a surprise proposal party, meticulously planning every detail to create a memorable experience. The proposal occurred on a bed of red rose petals, and the couple celebrated with family and friends, including a live performance by musician Clinton Kane, who sang their song "I Guess I'm in Love."
Background of the Couple
Holker was previously married to Stephen "tWitch" Boss, a well-known dancer and DJ, from 2013 until his death by suicide in December 2022. The couple shared three children: Weslie, 17, whom Boss adopted, and their biological children, Maddox, 9, and Zaia, 5. Holker began dating Edmunds approximately a year and a half after Boss's passing, publicly revealing their relationship in September 2024 during New York Fashion Week.
Holker's Reflections on Love and Support
In her engagement announcement, Holker expressed profound gratitude for Edmunds, stating, "I am so in love with you, Adam. Baby, I am forever grateful for you and the impact you have had in my life and my kids' lives." She emphasized how Edmunds has helped her rediscover herself and understand love anew, saying, "You helped me find me again and showed me how to love." Holker also noted the importance of their blended family, highlighting the positive influence Edmunds has had on her children.
Criticism and Controversy
Despite the joy surrounding her engagement, Holker faced backlash in the past for a tell-all memoir that some of Boss's family and friends criticized as a "smear campaign." In the book, she claimed that Boss had hidden a "cornucopia" of drugs, which she discovered after his death. Holker later clarified that her intention was to help others recognize potential red flags in similar situations.
Looking Forward
As Holker embarks on this new chapter with Edmunds, she reflects on the journey of healing and love following the loss of her first husband. She has expressed hope for a future filled with love and companionship, stating, "I never knew that I could have this again." With the support of Edmunds and their blended family, Holker looks forward to building a life together.
