Stephen “tWitch” Boss reportedly left behind a suicide note that alluded to his past challenges.
Law enforcement sources told TMZ that police discovered the “Ellen DeGeneres Show” DJ’s message, which contained vague references to issues he had been dealing with, at the scene of his death.
It’s unclear what exactly his challenges were, though sources told The Post that there is “no truth” to any claims tWitch had lost his life savings.
The Los Angeles County medical examiner confirmed this week that tWitch had died by self-inflicted gunshot wound. The “So You Think You Can Dance” alum was 40 years old.
tWitch’s widow, Allison Holker, reportedly rushed to a police station earlier this week when her husband had left their house without his car, which was unlike him, and had his phone turned off. She claimed they had no “issues” prior to his disappearance.
“It is with the heaviest of hearts that I have to share my husband Stephen has left us,” Holker said in a statement to People after the news of his passing had broken. “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.”
tWitch’s body was found in a motel located a mile away from his Los Angeles home. Staff at the Oak Tree Inn in Encino, Calif., told TMZ that the star did not appear “visibly upset” upon checking into the motel.
The famed dancer’s grandfather Eddy Boss revealed that tWitch had expressed his love for him in a final message now considered eerie.
“Every word has meaning. His last words to me were a simple text that says, ‘I love you Dad-Dad,’” Eddy told the Daily Mail Wednesday. “Our question is why? Where did it come from?”
Eddy said he never saw any signs that his grandson had been struggling with his mental health.
“We spoke as recently as Saturday on more than one occasion,” he shared. “He was the same happy-go-lucky person that he’s always been. We had no indication that anything was out of the ordinary.”
