Richard Pryor’s ex-bodyguard Rashon Kahn is making claims that has social media in a frenzy as he claims that comedian Paul Mooney slept with Pryor’s son, Richard Jr, back in the day. Cassandra Williams is Mooney’s publicist shot down the statements by Kahn by telling TMZ that “there is no validity to Rashon Kahn’s statement as it relates to Mr. Paul Mooney.”
Pryor and Mooney fell out way back as Kahn explained in an interview with Comedy Hype that the friendship ended as a result of Mooney messing around with Pryor’s son in the 80s. They had relations in 1986.
“So from there on, whatever Paul Mooney was to Richard, and there was a time when Paul Mooney was Richard’s friend (…) so when Paul did what he did it was a violation of friendship, first, and then my son,” Kahn said. “And in some circles that’s supposed to be dealt with.”
