Katie Holmes may have reached a divorce settlement with estranged husband Tom Cruise, but according to BBC journalist and Scientology documentarian John Sweeney, Katie's troubles are far from over. "The very worst thing for Katie- according to former members of Sea Org, the church’s holy order, that I’ve been in touch with in the past few days- will be the terror that her own secret thoughts about sex and love and despair may come out into the open," Sweeney wrote in a column for "The Independent".
Though spokespeople for Scientology have dismissed claims the recordings will be offered to the public when a member is excommunicated, the private details of former Sea Org member Amy Scobee's love life were somehow released.
So, the question now is: "How will Scientology affect Holmes’ life after Cruise?"
The British journalist had an experience with Scientology five years ago after documenting the religion and he states that Holmes might face the same treatment.
"Private investigators whom I believe were working for the Church chased me around the streets of LA, invaded my hotel at midnight and put me under surveillance at breakfast. Strangers spied on my wedding and knocked on the doors of my neighbours," he wrote.
"They spied on me in Britain. I’ve heard from a solid source that the Church hired a team of private eyes here. I know the name of the company and have asked the House of Commons select committee on private investigators to look into it, with no success."
"Do not doubt the power of the Church of Scientology," Sweeney warned in his column. "I want to write a book about my experience of the Church, and thus far every single publisher we have approached has turned me down."
What do you think?
Will the Church of Scientology control Katie after her divorce from Tom Cruise and expose her private sex thoughts?
