Twin Cities Talk: Leah Remini's Break From Scientology

Leah Remini

Last week, actress Leah Remini's exit from the controversial, scandal-fraught Church of Scientology was made public. Her departure came following a long, difficult journey that began after an innocent question. A question, mind you, she asked at Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes' wedding. Leah simply asked where her friend Shelly was. Michele 'Shelly' Miscavige, wife of David Miscavige, the leader of Scientology, has not been seen in public since August 2007.

Although Leah has yet to make a public statement about why she left Scientology, her sister Nicole Remini has. Nicole, now living in Minnesota with her family, is also a former member of the church.

On Monday, Nicole sat down with KTMY myTalk 107.1 host Colleen Lindstrom for an exclusive, in-depth conversation about her own experience in the church, as well as that of her sister and her family.
