Bill Cosby has been freed for some time. Though free, his history haunts him. The Bill Cosby show cast has also suffered financially due to Cosby’s legal difficulties. Keisha Knight-Pulliam has spoken out most in support of the actor.
For years, Phylicia Rashad has supported Bill Cosby, his on-screen wife. Rashad celebrated Bill Cosby’s release on social media and discussed his trial and charges.
“FINALLY!!! “A dreadful wrong is righted—a miscarriage of justice is remedied!” she tweeted. While Bill Cosby wasn’t acquitted, Phylicia Rashad’s tweet confused many. He was released on technicality. The unwarranted comment nearly lost her her job as Howard University’s Chadwick Boseman College of Fine Arts dean.
Malcolm Jamal Warner, who played his father on The Cosby Show, says the issues are more complicated than people think. Malcolm refused to blame his TV dad after the trial.
“It’s so difficult, and so many people will never comprehend it.” Malcolm has discussed how awful it was to watch their show’s history fall with Mr. Cosby and how they lost residuals and prospective reboots.
The claims did not surprise Lisa Bonet. Bonet clashed with Cosby on The Cosby Show and It’s A Different World. She says Bill had a “sinister aura” but never knew about his abuse.
Bonet thinks Cosby cannot hide his dark shadow. Tempestt Bledsoe has not commented on Bill Cosby.
Raven-Symone, who was too young to recall The Cosby Show, delivered a statement in support of the women. Raven denied any misconduct by Mr. Cosby in 2017 and hoped justice will be served.
When asked about Bill Cosby on The View, the actress said, “‘I don’t really like to talk about the Bill Cosby scandal that much because he’s the reason I’m on this panel in the first place.’ Raven-Symone believed in waiting until the facts were given before voicing her opinion.
Keisha Knight Pulliam had trouble distinguishing the man she worked with from the man on trial. Keisha Knight Pulliam still loves Mr. Cosby and believes everyone is innocent until proven guilty.
After Amber Rose chastised Bill supporters in an interview, she reacted. “I feel you, and everyone’s entitled to their view, but we still live in a society where you’re innocent until proven guilty,” Pulliam fumed. “I realise everything that has happened, and me being a feminist and believing women—no means no, and I get it—but, just so you know, I worked with him for a really long time.” Rose apologised for “getting it.”
Keisha Knight Pulliam has supported the cast the most. Cosby and the actress attended court hearings together. Keisha Knight-Pulliam hasn’t spoken since the comedian’s conviction. Her silence sparked a wedge with Camille Cosby, Bill’s wife, who felt she didn’t support Him sufficiently.
