You can create another readonly property of string type (say Property name 'Status') in your collection, so you will have another column in the grid. All you have to do, just hide the boolean column and display the mewly added String Column.
This 'Status' property is set to true/false depending upon your existing Boolean Column.

You can do like:

bool falseFlag = false;
bool trueFlag = true;

Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToString(falseFlag));
Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToString(falseFlag).Equals(Boolean.FalseString));
Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToString(trueFlag));
Console.WriteLine(Convert.ToString(trueFlag).Equals(Boolean.TrueString));

OR
string falseFlagstring1 = Convert.ToString(falseFlag);

                                string falseFlagstring2 = Convert.ToString(falseFlag).Equals(Boolean.FalseString).ToString();

                                string trueFlagString1 = Convert.ToString(trueFlag);

                                string trueFalgString2 = Convert.ToString(trueFlag).Equals(Boolean.TrueString).ToString();
// The example displays the following output:
// False
// True
// True
// True
