Friendships can be complicated, but when you're Leah Remini, they can get downright messy. In a recent chat with LaPalme, the outspoken actress opened up about her estranged pal Katie Holmes and dropped some serious revelations about Tom Cruise's ex-wife. It’s not just drama—it’s heart-wrenching drama.
Leah Remini Questions the Silence of Katie Holmes and Nicole Kidman
At 48 years old, Leah isn't holding back. During the interview, she shared her thoughts on why Katie Holmes and Nicole Kidman haven't spoken out about their ties to the Church of Scientology. “I’m not a crusader,” Leah admitted. “The people who appear on my A&E show, Scientology and the Aftermath, are the real champions. But here’s the thing—I keep wondering why Katie Holmes and Nicole Kidman haven’t said anything. I believe they were forced to sign restrictive agreements.”
Leah went on to reveal the extent of these restrictions, explaining, “Trust me, Katie isn’t allowed to share a meal with me, and we used to be close. If she did, she could risk losing custody of Suri Cruise. It’s sick, isn’t it?” It’s a harsh reality that sheds light on the intense pressure these women face.

The Ties That Bind: Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise
Katie Holmes was married to Tom Cruise from 2006 to 2012, a period during which she was deeply connected to the Church of Scientology. Now, years later, Tom remains a devoted member of the church, which many believe explains why he hasn’t seen or spoken to his 12-year-old daughter, Suri, in years. Meanwhile, Leah made headlines in 2013 when she left the Church of Scientology after three decades. Her departure marked the beginning of a new chapter in her life, one where she became a vocal critic of the organization.
Leah Remini: The Target of Harassment
Leah didn't stop there. She also revealed that people from her A&E show, Second Act, are being "constantly harassed." She recounted, “Especially me. Members of the Church of Scientology go to my mom's restaurant, confront my little sister, and even bother my stepkids in San Francisco—all in an effort to intimidate us. These so-called 'religious' tactics are nothing but abusive scare tactics.” It’s a heavy burden to carry, but Leah isn't backing down.
The Church of Scientology's Response
The Church of Scientology fired back at Leah’s accusations in a statement to E! News. “We’d rather ignore Leah Remini’s over-the-top rants aimed at grabbing attention, but unfortunately, she continues to incite waves of anti-religious hate crimes. Ms. Remini’s hate speech puts lives at risk and requires increased security and law enforcement resources to protect those she endangers.”
The statement concluded, “Ms. Remini’s ridiculous rants are endless, and the myths and tales she and her co-producer spread only grow stranger by the day.” It’s a heated back-and-forth that shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon.
