Not so fast!
Earlier this morning, ABC News' Dan Harris appeared on GMA and teased that Katie Holmes would be making appearance on Leah Remini's upcoming 20/20 Scientology special, but apparently that couldn't be more false.
"You're also going to hear from Katie Holmes, the former wife of Tom Cruise. [And] what she is now saying about Leah," he hinted on the morning program.
The Dawson's Creek star's rep just released a statement shooting down those reports, and urged the public not to drag the actress into the whole King of Queens star vs. Scientology feud.
"I regret having upset Leah in the past and wish her only the best in the future," the statement read. It is unclear what Remini plans to reveal about Holmes or her involvement with the controversial religion, but it sounds like Katie is doing everything to keep Leah on her good side and keep her quiet!
"In response to an email sent from the producers or fact-checkers from 20/20 asking a plethora of questions, we supplied no answers and instead gave only a one-sentence statement in response. Katie is not making an appearance on the special, nor is she discussing Scientology, or her former marriage, and this quote was provided through her publicist. For any outlet to suggest otherwise is misleading; I would think Leah and the book stand on their own, and don't need to trade off Katie Holmes for people to tune in," her publicist added.
Remini will undoubtedly go after Tom Cruise in the tell-all special, as she has already been quite vocal about his part in the church. "Being critical of Tom Cruise is being critical of Scientology itself. You are a person who is anti the aims and goals of Scientology, you are evil," she explained.
Does Remini have a security team? We think she needs one once this airs!
