The 14-year-old boy, who Boss’s widow Allison Holker had in 2008 with an unnamed ex-boyfriend, was adopted by Boss after they married in 2013.
Weslie hasn’t posted to his 152,600 followers on TikTok since December 12, the day before his father’s death, but he returned to social media on Monday.
The short video featured the teen holding her phone in front of a mirror, to Mac Miller’s 2020 song Surf… released on her posthumous album Circles, two years after her death from an accidental overdose at age 28.
The phone also featured two small photos of her and Stephen as a tribute to their late father, and the video garnered more than 221,000 views and 21,000 likes.
