Leah Remini is not holding back on her Scientology expose. The actress, who left the religious cult in 2013, also gave concerning details as to how the religion affected Suri Cruise, daughter of Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise.
In a television interview with "Good Morning America" Monday, the actress said she believed Katie left Tom - and Scientology for that matter - for Suri's sake. The pronouncements came after Remini blasted Scientology in a previous tell-all interview on TV's "20/20," which aired on Friday, Oct. 30.
Entertainment Weekly reported that Remini turned her back on her religion partly because of her own daughter, just like Katie. "I know now she did what she did, leaving in the way that she did, because she had to protect her daughter, which, in a way, connects us now," she said.
The actress also detailed how she witnessed seeing Suri crying on the bathroom floor, while three women did nothing but stare at the child. Suri was seven months old at that time and the scene was part of the expose that Remini wrote in her book, "Troublemaker: Surviving Hollywood and Scientology," according to New York Daily News.
According to Remini, the occasion was Tom and Katie's wedding dinner and she could hear the baby crying from another room. However, nobody else seemed too concerned about it including Suri's parents, so she decided to follow the sound and saw the scene in the bathroom. Leah then convinced the women to feed baby Suri, but the actress said the situation was "extremely uncomfortable," according to Hollywood Life.
Tom and Katie also allegedly snubbed Leah at their wedding because of this incident and several other instances that the couple felt Remini offended them. Now divorced from Tom, Katie issued a response to Leah's claim's saying, "I regret having upset Leah in the past and wish her only the best in the future," according to TMZ.
Remini also revealed that Tom's adopted kids with Nicole Kidman have a different relationship with their mother. In her conversations with Tom's daughter, Isabella, Leah said that Nicole was referred to as the SP for "suppressed person," a Scientology term that meant Nicole is the enemy. It's the term that scientologists also referred to Remini a few years ago, according to RedBook Magazine.
Meanwhile, the Church if Scientology already issued a statement denouncing Remini's expose. "Every claim Ms. Remini has made is not only untrue, but ridiculous and stupid. She is just trying to latch onto a prominent celebrity for her own publicity," part of the statement read, according to Us Weekly.
