Remini left Scientology in 2013 after being a member for 35 years. She was 13 years old when her mother joined the organization.
She filed a lawsuit against the Church of Scientology in 2023, in which she claimed she and her daughter were being harassed by the organization.
In an explosive new interview, Remini said the harassment has been nonstop.
'Constant Surveillance'
Remini and Pagan met before she became a star on the hit "King of Queens."
The actress said: "It's difficult to say it's gotten easier when I have a multimillion-dollar organization terrorizing me and my family.
"I'm hunted. My daughter is followed. There is constant surveillance."
Remini further claimed the organization harassed "my underage daughter online" and "(used) a Scientology term that means to kill me (and) basically to erase me from the face of the earth."
She explained her hands have been tied because: "When you talk to a lawyer, they say, 'It's going to cost you more to defend yourself than to pay them off.' And Scientology knows that."
Daughter 'Constantly Petrified'
Remini said she had to get her daughter 'help' after the 20-year-old feared her phone was 'being tapped.'
When asked how her 20-year-old daughter has handled being harassed, Remini said she reminds her daily, "Ma'am, be aware."
Remini said Sofia is "constantly petrified that her phone is being tapped," to the point that she "had to get her help for that."
The actress noted her daughter is "OK" now after going to therapy, adding: "We got through a rough patch. It takes a toll."
Organization Denies Harassment
The organization denied harassming Remini and her loved ones.
A spokesperson for the organization not only denied Remini's claims, but alleged she's the one who has harassed the organization.
They told RadarOnline.com they Remini has spent years spreading what they called "false allegations against her former religion."
A spokesperson for the organization added: "It is telling that not a single shred of evidence has surfaced in all that time to support her claims.
"Her latest false accusations are likewise made from whole cloth."
The spokesperson also said Remini "will owe" Scientology a "looming large attorney fee award."
