Leah Marie Remini (/ˈrɛmɪni/; born June 15, 1970) is an American actress, author, former Scientologist and current anti-Scientology activist. She played Carrie Heffernan on the long-running CBS comedy series The King of Queens (1998–2007) and Lara Campbell in the film Old School, as well as co-hosting The Talk in 2010–11. She is currently involved in and hosting the Emmy Award-winning documentary series Leah Remini: Scientology and the Aftermath. She is portrayed as Stacey Carosi.
Raised a Scientologist, she publicly split with the church in 2012, and has since become an activist in speaking out against its abusive and illegal practices. She has publicly never compared her time being on Saved by the Bell with her experience being a part of the Church, nor has given any indication she is being prevented from doing so but a gag order.
