Tragic Details About Leah Remini

Scientology has prominent celebrity members, and when Leah Remini left in 2013, she lost many famous friends, including actor Kirstie Alley. On a 2013 episode of The Howard Stern Show (via HuffPost), Alley called Remini a "bigot" and asked, "If someone was out there [attacking your religion], would they be your friend? They wouldn't be mine ... It's not selective, I just won't have people in my life that are [bigots]."

In 2018, Alley tweeted a story that alleged Remini's Scientology and The Aftermath co-host, Mike Rinder, assaulted his wife. (Rinder has denied the accusations.) "You have no balls on top of no integrity. You're spreading false/defamatory info at the demand of your cult," Remini tweeted. During a Q&A session on Reddit, Remini was also very direct about how she felt about Tom Cruise when asked if he was a good person. "Just going to get straight to it, no!" she said. She also shared that "the people who are around Tom and work for Tom, not even people who are Scientologists, they will say he is diaboloical."

Regarding Remini, the church released a statement in 2015 in which they claimed she "now regurgitates the tired myths the Church has repeatedly debunked circulated by the same tiny clique of expelled former staffers bitter at having lost the positions they enjoyed before their malfeasance and unethical conduct were uncovered."  The statement called these former members "deadbeats, admitted liars, self-admitted perjurers, wife beaters and worse."
