The presenter worked for years with Boss, who was the DJ on her show. “My heart is broken,” she wrote. “He was like family to me and I loved him so much. I will miss him. Many blessings to the family.” Elaine finally posted a photo with the text showing how she and the president hug each other.

Former First Lady Michelle Obama also commented on the news. She was often a guest on “Ellen’s Show” and got to know Boss very well that way.
