Ellen show DJ ‘tWitch’ said he was hoping to have another child with his wife the month before he shot himself dead in a motel bathroom.
He died at the age of 40.
According to the US Sun, Stephen’s wife, Allison Holker, ran into an LAPD station on Tuesday, frantic because Stephen had left home without his car, which was unusual for him.
“We’re told, a short time later, police got a call for a shooting at an L.A. hotel … and they found Stephen there, dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound,” the report stated.
His wife, Holker also added, “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.
“Stephen, we love you, we miss you, and I will always save the last dance for you.”
Twitch came to the spotlight in 2008 after he finished runner-up in the dance show So You Think You Can Dance losing to fellow hip-hop dancer Joshua Allen who won.
