Allison Holker was completely shocked by daughter Weslie’s latest social media confession.
“I get scam texts or those messages every day, like sugar daddy messages,” Weslie, 16, said on the Sunday, May 11, episode of their “Between Us” podcast. “My Instagram is full of them. The amount of men asking for feet pics is wild. I’m underage.”
Holker, 37, was caught off guard by Weslie’s revelations.
“Stop it, no you don’t!” Holker quipped. “I don’t feel comfortable at all with that happening to you. I’m glad we’re talking about it. Wait, are you serious? You just don’t respond, or do you block them? What do you do? This is happening [and] we’re having a discussion of what needs to happen next. I was not aware of this.”

According to Weslie, the messages go straight into an “unfiltered” direct message folder.
“I’ll check it every once in a while if I want to laugh or giggle,” the teen said.
Holker, who shares Weslie with a past partner before welcoming two younger kids with late husband Stephen “tWitch” Boss, doesn’t want her firstborn to open any more of the scandalous messages. (Weslie claimed that some of the messages offered her a monetary “weekly allowance” if she sent foot pics or accepted an offer to be a sugar baby.)
“Don’t open those. First off, never open them [because] you don’t know where it’s going to go,” Holker stated. “Let’s just make the rule [and only open messages] from people that you know.”

She added, “Can we turn these people in? … They say allowance ‘cause they know you are a child. That is absolutely insane [and] I’m really appalled. I’m really sorry that’s happening for real.”
Holker further stressed that hearing about Weslie’s unprompted DM requests makes her feel worried as a parent. (Holker has been a single mother ever since Boss died by suicide in 2022 at the age of 40.)
“It makes me sad that you would have to navigate that space,” Holker added. “I never had to deal with some man asking me for feet pics, like, that’s really uncomfortable. … I’ve tried to teach you that other people are going to show they’re ugly through social media [and] it’s the way you use your social media [is] all you can control. Even you knowing that this is a scam or these are bad things that are happening and making yourself aware, makes me feel like you’re going to be OK.”
While Holker is proud of Weslie brushing off the messages, she still doesn’t “like hearing that it’s happening” in the first place.
