Bill Cosby has two more women accusing him of sexual misconduct, according to attorney Gloria Allred.

The lawyer announced Friday that she will be unveiling the latest women to come forward with allegations against the former “Cosby Show” star at a press conference in New York City at 2:00 p.m. ET.

“The women will share what they say happened to them after the met Bill Cosby. [sic] They will also explain why they decided to add their voices to the voices of the many women that have already spoken out publicly about Mr. Cosby,” a press release reads. “Ms. Allred will explain why she continues to bring out more women whose voices have not been previously heard.”

Allred did not reveal the names of the women who will “speak out publicly for the first time,” or any other details.

Allred’s office did not respond to TheWrap’s request for comment, and would not clarify whether or not these women were already counted among the dozens of Cosby accusers — 27 of whom recently sat down for a powerful “Dateline” interview.

On Tuesday, Cosby severed ties with longtime legal counsel Martin Singer.

TheWrap will monitor the press conference later this afternoon.
