Leah Remini Wants to Sue Church of Scientology

Leah Remini is serious about taking down the Church of Scientology. Since premiering in 2016, her Emmy-winning docuseries, Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath has been on a mission to expose the organization. And now, the former Scientologist, 49, wants to sue the church, a source exclusively reveals in the new issue of Us Weekly.

Celebrity Scientologists and Stars Who Have Left the Church

“There are multiple lawsuits — one having to do with children who were allegedly physically, mentally and sexually assaulted while in Scientology,” says a source close to the star, “and another regarding adults who’ve allegedly been harassed due to the policies of Scientology.”

However, a spokeswoman for the church calls the claims “false and unfounded” and says there’s “no credible evidence supporting the allegations.”

As Us previously reported in July, the Kevin Can Wait actress was considering taking the Church to court because they’re allegedly on a crusade to cancel her A&E show. “There’s been no announcement about another season,” the source said. “She’s met with lawyers, as she’s considering taking legal action. She alleges she’s been spied on and followed by people working on behalf of the church.”

Celebs Fight Back on Social Media

The organization also denied such claims. “In Remini’s mind, this is some kind of conspiracy against her,” a spokeswoman told Us at the time. “Remini’s publicity stunt is as stupid now as it was then, just like all of her other conspiracy theories.”

Red Carpet Date! Sophia Bush and Grant Hughes Attend WHCA Dinner

Finding The One! Sophia Bush has kept her romance with Grant Hughes relatively private since the pair were first spotted together in Malibu in May 2020. However, the FocusMotion Health founder has shared a few photos of the couple. Ever since landing the role of Brooke Davis on One Tree Hill in 2003, Bush’s personal life has made headlines. That is something that the actress and activist has intentionally changed, she explained in June 2021. “It’s hard to have nothing that’s yours. And when you are a person who lives in the public eye, everybody wants to pick over everything and that can be really tricky,” the False Positive actress told Entertainment Tonight at the time. “I also grew up in the early aughts when girls were raked over the coals for any choices that they made. And I just was like, ‘I don’t think I like this.’ I didn’t like having my private life lied about. There were times where someone would send through an article and be like, ‘Well, supposedly you’re dating t...
