The Church of Scientology is one of the most controversial religions in the world, even branded as a cult in several countries of Europe and the Americas; now, a former member of the Church stands up to it by applauding a recent documentary revealing the secrets of Scientology, but will Leah Remini's net worth be affected by this?
In the documentary, full name "Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief" and produced by HBO, its creators make a point to reveal the shady practices behind the top people in the Church, something that could ultimately affect Leah Remini's net worth, as the Church is fairly powerful.
There are a lot of conspiracy theories surrounding the Church of Scientology, and particularly so in Hollywood, as there are some big names involved in it, most notably Oscar nominated actors Tom Cruise and John Travolta and "Orange is the New Black" star Laura Prepon - as other theories are revealed in the new documentary, many fear that Leah Remini's net worth could decrease as she accuses the Church of corrupt practices.
Earlier this week, obviously unconcerned about Leah Remini's net worth, the "King of Queen" actress took to Twitter to congratulate the people behind "Going Clear." It's hardly the first time she goes clear herself on the matter, as she spoke publicly about her decision to leave Scientology in 2013, citing different aspects like corruption and "thought modification."
"Thank you to the brave who did something about it," the actress tweeted. "And to those who didn't have a voice, you do now. #GoingClear"
As Business Insider reports, in 2013, following her highly publicized exit from Scientology, screenwriter and director Paul Haggis, a former member of the Church himself, sent Remini a heartfelt letter, saying that, without his knowledge, she had stood by him after he'd left the Church.
It's been said that there's something else set to rise Leah Remini's net worth from now on, as she might write a memoir about her experience in Scientology.
Currently, Celebrity Net Worth lists Leah Remini's net worth as $20 million.
