Remini's representatives would not comment on the New York Post article. Representatives for the Church of Scientology did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
The actress, 43, has spoken publicly in the past about being a member of the Church of Scientology, which was founded in 1954 by science fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard and has attracted several Hollywood stars including Tom Cruise and John Travolta.
The organisation describes its practices as a religion and believes man is an immortal being whose experience extends beyond one lifetime.
But some observers ? including media mogul Rupert Murdoch ? liken it to an alleged cult and there have been accusations that Scientologists pressurise people who seek to quit.
The church came under fresh scrutiny last year when actress Katie Holmes suddenly divorced Cruise, with whom she has one daughter. Although there was speculation that Holmes had rejected Scientology, neither she nor Cruise addressed a split over the faith.
In an April 2001 interview with CNN, Remini said she "finds solace in her steadfast practice of Scientology," and jumped to the defense of the religion.
"If somebody is going to get turned off about something because of what they read or heard, then that person's not smart enough to even enter a church," Remini said to CNN.
Other notable former Scientology members include director Paul Haggis, who spoke out in detail about his experiences with the church in a New Yorker article in February 2011.
