Allison Holker will proudly admit that she’s had cosmetic surgery.
“I haven’t, really, publicly come out and discussed this, that I had a boob job, but I recently had a boob job,” Holker, 37, revealed on the Sunday, May 25, episode of her “Between Us” podcast. “I’m so happy with it.”
She added, “I’ve actually wanted a boob job since I was in high school, but, because of my career in dancing, I never really made time for it ‘cause I was like, ‘OK, I’ll have to take a couple months off from it.’ I also thought it was going to be a lot more of a big deal than it really was after getting it done.”
Before her breast augmentation, Holker frequently wondered about the healing process, whether she would be in pain or how to “protect” the implants while recovering.
“I feel, like, I went into that mindset [and] when I was 18 [it would have been] way too much for me,” Holker said of the procedure and her recovery. “I pushed it off, pushed it off, pushed it off [and] three kids later and I’m not dancing like I used to, so I was like, ‘OK, maybe this is the right time.’”
She added, “I think I needed a little bit of encouragement, like, I’ve gone through a lot the last couple years, and I was really down on myself and my confidence level was all over the place. I was like, ‘I think I’m going to do something for me.’ It was really nice.”
Holker’s husband, fellow pro dancer Stephen “tWitch” Boss, died by suicide in December 2022 at the age of 40. He is survived by Holker and their three children: Weslie, 16, Maddox, 9, and Zaia, 5. (Weslie is Holker’s daughter from a previous relationship, whom Boss helped raise.)
After grieving Boss’ death, Holker spoke with Weslie about her desire to go under the knife.
“I think it really helped me, having conversations with Weslie,” she added of her decision. “Her seeing me go through the process of, like, ‘No, I’m going to choose me for a second,’ and now I’m so happy with that.”
Weslie, who cohosts “Between Us” with Holker, chimed in to share that her mom had a relatively easy healing journey after the procedure.
“When you got your boobs, it was like a light came through,” Weslie added. “She was, literally, like, ‘Oh my gosh, look at me!’ She put on outfits and was like, ‘I just look so much better in these outfits now.’ To see someone do something for themselves, especially me being so close to my mom, it was like, ‘I can tell you’re actually happier.’ It wasn’t like you’re getting these random cosmetic surgeries out of nowhere. It was something that you thought about and really wanted.”
In addition to getting a boob job, Holker admitted that she’s been getting Botox injections “for years.”
“I actually would love to know [if] you get Botox ‘cause I get Botox and I love it,” Holker asked podcast guest Jessica Hall on Sunday’s episode. “I’m due for it right now. What’s crazy is a lot of people get it when they’re, like, 18 to 20 … but I think because we work in entertainment, and so I know a lot of people … [who] think they have to get it to be hosts or be TV personalities.”
Holker, meanwhile, decided to wait until she was older to start getting forehead injections.
“I’ve been doing it for years, and I really do like it,” the former Dancing With the Stars pro said. “I like not being able to move my forehead. I’m way too expressive, so Botox helps so much. The biggest thing … it actually cleared up my acne. I don’t know if it usually does, but I used to have a very pimply forehead [and] it took everything away.”
