Earlier this month, Holker joinedThe Jennifer Hudson Showwhere she chattedaboutgetting back into dancefollowing the death of her husband.
“This place is like home. So walking in here, I have all these memories of my daughter," Holker began, referencing her return to the studio. “My oldest, she’s 15, she used to come here every day after school and do her homework here, everyone would feed her dinner, and it was so wonderful.”
“She got to have a very different experience than both kids, right? But it’s such a wonderful place that I really hold dear to my heart. So, it’s a lot to be here but a beautiful feeling.”
