On Tuesday, reports surfaced that Kirstie Alley – another outspoken defender of the controversial religion – was livid with Remini over the defection, although she’s since denied the claims, however, it seems that Remini has one supporter from her A-list days, in the shape of Jennifer Lopez.
According to People, Lopez, 43, a non-Scientology, has got the Brooklyn girl’s back.
‘They’re best friends and they’re fine,’ Leah’s sister Nicole Remini-Wiskow told the magazine.
‘None of her Scientology friends are sticking by her side. I guess you really learn who your friends are.’
Last week, former Village Voice editor Tony Ortega alleged in his Scientology blog that Alley was ‘livid’ at Remini for leaving in such a high profile fashion.
