( CNN ) Bill Cosby 's TV wife is standing firmly in his corner -- even as three more women made accusations against the comedian . Showbiz 411 reported that Phylicia Rashad , who played Clair Huxtable on NBC 's `` The Cosby Show , '' told the outlet that she never saw any indication of the behavior that many women have attributed to the legendary actor . He has been accused of harassing , drugging and sexually assaulting multiple women . No charges have ever been filed against Cosby , and his attorneys have vehemently denied the allegations . `` Forget these women , '' Rashad said . `` What you 're seeing is the destruction of a legacy . And I think it 's orchestrated . I do n't know why or who 's doing it , but it 's the legacy . And it 's a legacy that is so important to the culture . '' More than 20 women have come forward with claims , and a defamation lawsuit has been filed against Cosby . The long-admired actor and comedian has seen his reputation suffer in the wake of the allegations , including the cancellation of a planned television show and the suspension of the Cosby Chair for the Humanities at Spelman College in Atlanta , where he and his wife , Camille , have been longtime benefactors . Three more accusers . On Wednesday , attorney Gloria Allred brought out three more women -- Linda Kirkpatrick , Lynn Neal and a woman who chose to be identified only as Kacey -- who say they were sexually assaulted by the comedian after being drugged by him . Kirkpatrick , who met Cosby at a tennis tournament , and Neal , who was a health club massage therapist , said their incidents happened in the early 1980s . Kacey , a former employee of the William Morris Agency who was an assistant to a Cosby agent , dated her incident to the 1990s . While introducing the women , Allred -- who challenged Cosby last month to meet his accusers in court or set aside $ 100 million to settle their claims -- addressed Rashad 's statements . `` Phylicia , you should be supporting these women rather than joining Cosby 's paid 'attack dogs ' who are trying to undermine them in any way that they can , '' Allred said . She added that Cosby 's camp has not accepted either of the offers she made in December . Rashad : 'Someone is determined ' Rashad , who also starred as the actor 's wife on the CBS show `` Cosby , '' said she sees the controversy as part of a larger plot . `` Someone is determined to keep Bill Cosby off TV , '' she said . `` And it 's worked . All his contracts have been canceled . '' The actress said she loves Cosby and defended his wife , saying there was no way Camille Cosby would stand for such behavior from her husband of 50 years . `` This is a tough woman , a smart woman , '' Showbiz 411 's Roger Friedman writes that Rashad told him . `` She 's no pushover . '' She also spoke on the legacy of the beloved show that cemented her and Cosby as one of TV 's favorite couples . `` This show represented America to the outside world , '' she said . `` This was the American family . And now you 're seeing it being destroyed . Why ? '' Asked why she believed Cosby has n't spoken up to defend himself other than to say that the black media should cover the story with a `` neutral mind , '' Rashad said she believes he has too much pride to do it . `` If he spoke now , what do you think the media would do with it ? '' she said .
