Bill Cosby’s Daughter Ensa Dead At 44

Bill Cosby's daughter Ensa has been found dead at the age of 44 — after she stood by her father during his rape trial and multiple accusations of sexual assault!

Ensa (at left, with sisters Erika and Evin) passed away in Massachusetts on the night of Feb. 23. It's a heartbreaking turn for the disgraced comic, who lost his son Ennis as a victim of violent crime in 1997. Ensa publicly supported her father through his 2017 rape trial in Pennsylvania, saying her father "has been publicly lynched" — despite sources telling The ENQUIRER that Ensa once witnessed her father attacking her nanny!

Ensa had still said during the trial: "I strongly believe my father is innocent of the crimes alleged against him, and I believe that racism has played a big role in all aspects of this scandal." Outside of public statements, however, Ensa had shunned the spotlight — except for a quick turn on "The Cosby Show" in 1989 (at far right), when her father was still a beloved comedian.

Cosby's daughter still had a troubled home life, however — with The ENQUIRER reporting that her husband, Martin McLean, had been charged in 2011 for attempting to fill a bogus order for 90 tablets of the painkiller oxycodone at an Arizona pharmacy. McLean avoided a prison sentence by completing a rehab program. A family spokesman told RADAR Online that Ensa had passed away from renal disease.
