While former The Cosby Show daughter Lisa Bonet has yet to speak out about the ever-widening scandal involving her one-time TV dad, the actress’ daughter reveals her mom is “disgusted and concerned” about the accusations of more than 50 women that Bill Cosby drugged and raped them.
In a new interview with The Guardian, Zoë Kravitz, daughter of Bonet and rocker Lenny Kravitz, says her mother was as shocked as anyone to learn of the allegations against the erstwhile Dr. Huxtable.

“She’d plead the fifth, even to me,” admits Zoë. “I think she’s just staying out of it. She’s just as disgusted and concerned as everyone else is, but I don’t think she has any insight. It’s news to her as well.”
As the 26-year-old Mad Max: Fury Road actress explains, if her mother had seen any evidence of Cosby’s alleged improprieties during her The Cosby Show years, she would have spoken out ages ago.

“She’s a very straightforward person,” Zoë says of her mother. “If there was something she felt the world needed to know that would help this case or help any women who had been abused, she would say something.”
