Camille Cosby
has finally broken her silence and released a statement regarding the
alleged sexual allegations against her husband of 50 years, Bill Cosby.
Camille has remained silent throughout this controversy and her stance
on the entire situation could easily be summed up with her demeanor during Cosby’s last interview with AP–she was poised, but stoic and clearly there to support her man no matter what.
In her statement, Camille let it be known, “The man I met, and fell
in love with, and whom I continue to love, is the man you all knew
through his work. He is a kind man, a generous man, a funny man and a
wonderful husband, father and friend.” She continues, “A different man
has been portrayed in the media over the last two months. It is the
portrait of a man I do not know.”
Camille’s statement compares the “Rolling Stone” article about the rape at the University of Virginia
that turned out to be untrue to Cosby’s alleged accusations being
reported by the media as truth. Maybe this is why Cosby opened up and
chastised the Black media and demanded that we be “neutral” in our
coverage of Cosby’s alleged assaults. While this would a undesirable
position for any wife to be in, Camille understands the platform that
she’s stood on with Cosby for 50 years and after those 50 years, it’s
hard to believe that Camille would have any other reaction other than
support for her husband.
There’s dynamics in this marriage that we will never understand.
Cosby’s infidelities may have just started making headlines, but if
these accusations are true, he’s been taking advantage of his power on
young hopeful women throughout his marriage with Camille. A cheating
husband is difficult to ignore (especially if he was drugging and
assaulting women over the years), especially if Cosby was bringing them
to the home he shared with Camille, as supermodel Beverly Johnson alleged.
CBS is reporting that Camille released the following statement:
Who is the victim? Aren’t there at least 20 women who have come out against Cosby?
