Bill Cosby breaks his silence to reveal that he is blind

Bill Cosby has broken his silence.

The disgraced actor has not spoken out publicly in more than two years, but revealed in an interview with NNPA Newswire that he is blind.

Cosby confirmed that he woke up two years ago and couldn’t see, and that nothing can be done to repair his sight.

The former Cosby Show star also revealed that he misses performing, acknowledging that his career has been put on hold amid his upcoming aggravated indecent assault trial.

“I miss it all and I hope that day will come,” he told the publication. “I have some routines and storytelling that I am working on.

“I think about walking out on stage somewhere in the United States of America and sitting down in a chair and giving the performance that will be the beginning of the next chapter of my career.”

51 women have accused Cosby of sexual assault, and while many of the accusations fall outside of the statute of limitations, he is set to go to trial for three felony counts of aggravated indecent assault in June.

His daughter Evin also came to his defence in a statement to NNPA Newswire, sharing: “He is not abusive, violent or a rapist.

“Sure, like many celebrities tempted by opportunity, he had his affairs, but that was between him and my mother. They have worked through it and moved on, and I am glad they did for them and for our family.

“The harsh and hurtful accusations of things that supposedly happened 40 or 50 years ago, before I was born, in another lifetime, and that have been carelessly repeated as truth without allowing my dad to defend himself and without requiring proof, has punished not just my dad but every one of us.”
