Malcolm-Jamal Warner's Podcast Co-Host Reflects on the 'Unfair' Ending of His Life and Details Their Final Texts (Exclusive)
Journalist and professor Candace Kelley, who hosted the 'Not All Hood' podcast with the late 'Cosby Show' actor, recalls a man who was hilarious, thoughtful, and above all, loved his family Malcolm-Jamal Warner's friend and fellow podcast co-host is still grappling with the news of his tragic death. Journalist and professor Candace Kelley, who co-hosted the Not All Hood podcast with Warner, opens up to PEOPLE about her good friend, who died on July 20 after drowning in Costa Rica while on vacation with his family. "He was just in the middle of everything," Kelley tells PEOPLE of the 54-year-old actor. "The middle of his life, the middle of moving back into his home after dealing with a pipe burst, the middle of summer, work..." "The incompletion just feels so unfair," she adds, noting that he was also in the middle of planning their future podcast episodes. Kelley had been in contact with Warner up until the day before the fatal incident. "We'd been texting up until the day before," she recalls of Warner. "He texted me from the plane to say he was tired, then sent off a five-paragraph email [about work.] I was like, 'You're heading off to Costa Rica and you want to talk business and the future? OK!' We were texting every day while he was there until the day before, and then I was like, 'Where did he go?'" After learning the tragic news, Kelley says it hit her incredibly hard. "We'd only recently talked about death because I'd take a bereavement class, and he wanted to know what I learned," she says. "The ebb and flow of death is that you just don't know when it happens. You're never prepared." Despite grappling with the massive loss of her colleague, she still hopes to continue his mission of seeing different portrayals of Black people in the media. "He really was on a mission in making sure that the tropes about the Black community are not continued," she says. Similarly to The Cosby Show, where Warner played Theo Huxtable, the middle child in an upper-middle-class Black family in New York in the '80s, Warner wanted to continue seeing different types of Black lives in the media — which is the intention behind Not All Hood. "We'd have these conversations because all the dramas on TV are about gangs and the streets and drugs and kingpins," Kelley says. "But a lot of people don't know that he often turned down a lot of parts in these types of shows. He'd say, 'It's good writing, but it's not a good message.'" She continues, "The podcast was a continuation of what he wanted to show, which is that we're not all the same; here are some different facets of our lives... He really, really cared about carrying the torch that he had from The Cosby Show, and that torch was, 'Remember how they see us and do not co-sign.'" "Because we have options and can do better, we can change how we're seen and really in that way change the course of humanity," she adds. Looking ahead, Kelley plans to keep Warner's legacy and impact alive. She says their podcast will continue, but the first episode without Warner will be a tribute called "Malcolm Left the Mic On," and will air Friday, July 25. "We have a lineup of people from The Resident, and so Tori's going to come on, Erika Alexander, different people, but it will mostly be people from the community because I have hundreds of people who just want to share what he meant to them. So we said, 'Let's open it up to callers,'" she explains. Despite the hole left by his death, she says she'll never forget about his talents, and his kindness as a human. "In the Atlanta music scene, Malcolm was on fire and adored," she says of the actor's side gigs. "He would often bring music into discussions. It was an absolute passion that moved him. He performed every first Thursday at Buteco, a venue in Grant Park, with his band Biological Misfits. He'd play a mean bass, sing, and do poetry. I went on May 1, and it was amazing. It was a thing." Also amazing was the fact that child stardom never derailed him. Warner starred on the sitcom from 1984 to 1992 and was a teenager at the time, but Kelley says, "The shoe never fell." "His other biggest mission, besides his family, was just being a good person," she adds. "He wanted to be remembered like that; he has said that, he just wants to be remembered as a good person, and by all accounts, he's got that down. He really did. That was really sincere." Warner had previously expressed similar sentiments on the podcast. In his final interview on May 21, he admitted that he thought about his legacy "a lot." "There's part of me that I will be able to leave this earth knowing — and people knowing — that I was a good person," he remarked. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Warner said his father once told him that people love him because of his career and success. However, his dad was most proud was that his son was a good person. "I'm a good person because my dad's a good person," Warner gushed. "It is possible to walk through this world and, with all of the darkness in the world, it is possible to maintain your soul and be a good person."

Scott and Kelley Wolf barred from discussing divorce with their kids
Scott and Kelley Wolf have been banned from discussing their divorce with their children. The former couple - who have Jackson, 16, Miller, 12, and 11-year-old Lucy together - split last month after more than 20 years of marriage and earlier this week, they reached a temporary agreement which set out provisions around custody, visitation, finances, and communication, with the Party of Five actor's temporary restraining order against his estranged wife also dismissed. According to documents obtained by People magazine, Scott has temporary sole physical custody of the kids, while Kelley has been granted "liberal" supervised parenting time, which will be coordinated by the pair's lawyers. In addition, Kelley will be allowed three supervised video or phone calls per week with the children during "reasonable waking hours" and can respond if her kids initiate additional contact. If a court-appointed guardian raises any concerns, all parties must reevaluate whether supervision remains necessary. According to the agreement, neither party is permitted to discuss adult issues, the divorce, or the kids' relationship with their other parent in front of or with the children, and Scott and Kelley are also barred from making disparaging remarks, either verbally or in writing, and cannot interrogate their brood about what happens when they are with their other parent. The agreement also includes a social media stipulation, which means neither may post about one another, their marriage, children or the divorce, nor allow any third party to do so. Scott will keep exclusive use of their Park City home, and Kelley's parenting time may occur there but only with mutual agreement on a supervisor, and she is otherwise barred from the property. The 57-year-old actor will retain control of marital funds, covering household expenses and will also provide Kelley with $10,000 a month for living costs, as well as her car payments, minimum payments on credit cards and some of her legal fees. Days after news of the former couple's split was announced, Kelly was admitted to hospital under an involuntary 5150 hold - which is described as "a critical intervention used to detain individuals who are considered a danger to themselves or others or are gravely disabled due to a mental disorder" - but was discharged days later and insisted she was "fine". In a post on Instagram, she wrote: 'I'm fine, y'all. I'm happy. 'No mental illness. No addictions. Just a woman who SURVIVED an involuntary 5150 and went on a 1st DATE 2-night. So nervous! OMG!' The former couple married in 2004 and Kelley recently insisted she is "happy" and "ready to begin again" after her split from the actor. She wrote on Instagram: "Love makes the world go round … And in the times you feel heavy … KNOW … you are special. Peace is a state of mind. "And your mind is all that can tell you otherwise … I love you all and I am HAPPY. And that's okay … it's okay to hold many things at once. "We are dynamic … and I am ready to begin again … "

Shock twist in Scott Wolf's ugly divorce with wife of 21 years
A shocking twist has taken place amid Scott Wolf's ugly divorce battle with his estranged wife Kelley. Last month on June 10, it was revealed that the Party Of Five actor, 57, had filed for divorce from his wife after 21 years of marriage and welcoming three children together. However only days later, Kelley was detained by police, which had been accidentally caught on camera, and taken to a Utah hospital for a mental health evaluation. She later claimed that she was placed under an involuntary mental health hold 'again' by police earlier this month. On June 25, Wolf requested for a temporary restraining order against the mom-of-three which he was granted. But in a major turn of events, the TRO was dropped after it was dissolved by a Utah judge on Saturday due to an agreement Scott and Kelley reached, according to court documents obtained by People. The agreement was made earlier this week on Tuesday - and contains a number of terms revolving around visitation, communication as well as finances. But in a major turn of events, the TRO was dropped after it was dissolved by a Utah judge on Saturday due to an agreement Scott and Kelley reached, according to court documents obtained by People Wolf has also been granted sole custody of their three kids: Jackson, 16, Miller, 12, and Lucy, 11. Per the agreement that had been reached, Kelley will be allowed to have 'liberal' supervised time with her children. This includes supervised time with her kids in person that has been worked out ahead of time by counsel. She is also allowed to have either three phone or video calls with her children - also supervised. If any of her kids reach out to her first, Kelley has been given permission to also respond. Both Scott and Kelley cannot discuss certain topics in front of their children, including adult issues, divorce and their kids' relationship with either parent. The estranged couple also are not permitted to ask their kids what goes on at the other parent's place of residence. A gag order has also been put in place for both parties which prohibits either Scott or Kelley from posting and commenting about each other on social media. They also cannot talk about their children, divorce or marriage, and any third party is further prohibited from making posts/comments regarding the above topics. The end goal over a certain period time would be for Kelley to return to having unsupervised time with her three children. On June 25, Wolf requested for a TRO which was granted. At the time, Judge Richard Mrazi said that Kelley, 'has been engaged in an escalating pattern of behavior that poses a substantial threat of immediate and irreparable harm to the party's minor children,' per Today. The judge also said that Scott's estranged wife has made 'threats to remove the party's minor children from the country.' While the TRO has officially been dropped, a hearing that had been set for July 21 is also no longer taking place. The actor will remain at their Park City, Utah residence with their children - while Kelley will be allowed to only enter the property during supervised time with her kids. Scott will also have full control of marital funds, with Kelley receiving $10,000 each month to cover living costs. The star will also cover her other monthly bills such as car and credit card payments, as well as some attorney fees. The new twist in the estranged couple's divorce comes shortly after Kelley claimed she was placed under an involuntary mental health hold 'again' by police - who she alleges abused her in custody. Kelley took to Instagram over the past weekend to level curious claims against the Summit County Police Department - alleging she had been 'thrown down the stairs' by cops while on a seven day 'involuntary hold' - after being 'taken' from Sundance. However, Summit County Police Department confirmed to they were not involved in any response to Sundance Resort on July 6 - as Sundance is not located in Summit County. Sharing a photo of her bruised arm, Kelley alleged: 'I was held for 7 days and they tried to keep me for 90. I will not be quiet anymore. I cannot be quiet anymore.' She claimed of her injuries: 'This is from the police. I will get myself safe but I'm asking for help. Thrown down stairs. Broke my wrist, Contusions on my head. I'm bruised everywhere and I literally was released last night. This is the SECOND time. 'Summit county police took me from Sundance on July 6. I was in a hot tub. Placed me on an involuntary hold at Summit county Behavioral health. The truth must be told.' A further post saw Kelley say: 'I love my kids. I'm not crazy. I need help. And I want my kids back. That's all for now.' A Summit County Police Department spokesman said in a statement they are 'aware of several photographs and social media posts circulating that inaccurately claim "Summit County Police" responded to an incident at Sundance (Resort) on July 6, including allegations of a confrontation involving Summit County law enforcement. 'Sundance Resort is not located within Summit County, and therefore, no law enforcement agency from Summit County, including the Summit County Sheriff's Office , would be involved in incidents occurring there. 'I can confirm that the Summit County Sheriff's Office was not involved in any response to Sundance on July 6.' has contacted representatives for Utah County Sheriff's Office, Summit County Behavioral Health, Sundance Mountain Resort and Scott Wolf for comment but has yet to hear back. The Boston-born actor's brother Michael Wolf also entered a declaration in the matter, Us Weekly reported after reviewing court docs. 'It's so sad for the kids, but Kelley is ready to fight like hell for her children,' an insider close to Kelley, a mental health professional, told the outlet. The source added: 'It is not warranted, it's cruel. And it's incorrect.' On June 9, Wolf submitted to the court documents indicating his desire to divorce Kelley, who he exchanged vows with in May of 2004. Before Scott had his restraining order in place and had temporary custody of their three kids, Kelley was detained by police after strange comments she made to her father and others. On June 13, Kelley shared footage of police arriving to take her to the hospital while she was on an Instagram Live stream. Deputies responded to the Sundance Resort for a report of a female that needed some help,' read a statement from law enforcement obtained by People. 'Upon speaking with the female, our Deputies learned that she had made concerning comments to a family member, and she also made similar comments to our Deputies,' the statement continued. 'For that reason, our Deputies transported the female to a local hospital.' Kelley later confirmed she was placed under an 'involuntary 5150,' which is 'a critical intervention used to detain individuals who are considered a danger to themselves or others or are gravely disabled due to a mental disorder,' per the National Alliance on Mental Illness.
