Tom Cruise will 'lure' daughter Suri from Katie Holmes and recruit her into Scientology cult, claims Leah Remini
Leah Remini claims that Tom Cruise would have a master plan to 'lure' daughter Suri, 14, into the Scientology cult when she is old enough. The former church member shared that based on her experience with Scientology, Cruise is possibly waiting until Suri is older so that he can get her 'away from her mother' Katie Holmes. While speaking to The New York Post, Remini said, "Scientology considers Katie a suppressive person which is an enemy and therefore Tom believes, like all Scientologists, that he can't be connected to Suri."
The 50-year-old also shared, "I'm sure his master plan is to wait until Suri gets older so that he can lure her into Scientology and away from her mother." She admitted that she was very surprised when Holmes had suddenly left Cruise back in 2012.
She revealed, "I knew Katie when she was in [Scientology] and she seemed very indoctrinated into Tom’s world. but as time went on, and I understood why she did what she did to protect her daughter… I’m only assuming that there’s some type of agreement to protect her daughter."
She added that she feels very proud of Holmes "for getting her daughter out of something that would have been potentially very toxic and dangerous for not only Suri but for their relationship." Remini herself had been raised as a Scientologist from the age of nine years old. She left the church in 2013 after she started to question the managing style of the leader, David Miscavige.
She also slammed Cruise, saying he is simply 'not a good person' and that he 'continues to sit by and watch people's lives get destroyed, including the disappearance of his best friend's wife, Shelly Miscavige, who has not been seen in public in 15 years'.
The wife of leader David, Shelly Miscavige, has allegedly not been seen in several years with people believing that she had been 'banished' in 2005. However, the church has disputed that claim and insists that she is very much alive and well.
It is reported that Suri and Cruise don't really have a relationship but that Cruise has a close relationship with his older children Isabella, 27, and Connor, 25. Both the older children are practising scientologists.
Nicole Kidman who is the mother of the two has not commented on the nature of her relationship with her children given the faith that they have chosen. While speaking to Australia's Who magazine back in 2018, she had said, "They are able to make their own decisions."
She added, "They have made choices to be Scientologists and as a mother, it's my job to love them. And I am an example of that tolerance, and that's what I believe — that no matter what your child does, the child has love and the child has to know there is available love and I'm open here."
Remini also has a show called 'Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath', which talks about the controversial group. The show had aired last year and upon learning that the finale would be focusing on allegations that church policy bars and prevents members from reporting accusations of sexual and physical violence to the authorities, a spokesperson from the church released a statement. The spokesperson told The NY Post at the time, "Leah Remini has blood on her hands. Her show’s lies, distortions and exhortations to hate and bigotry generated assassination threats against the leader of the Scientology religion, physical attacks on churches, and the murder of a Scientology religious worker whose throat was slashed by a madman egged on by Remini’s horrendous distortions. Perpetrators who were jailed for their crimes named Remini as their inspiration."
